Strategy: Multimodal Instruction
Standard/Activity: Completing a Job Application
Implement Strategy: Students watch a tutorial video, follow along with a teacher-led demo, and then complete a mock job application using both print and digital formats.
Check for Understanding: Peer review applications for accuracy and completeness.
Additional Resources: Sample job applications, how-to videos, and editable digital templates.

I am planning on using the Academic Word Finder to help build Vocabulary this year.

Pre-teach vocabulary prior to and during instruction. We gave, at times, a unique vocabulary.

mind meister for students learning the steps for simplifying expressions or learning new properties. We could do an inclass activity to check for understanding to see what concepts they still retain weeks later.

I often use Anchor Charts but allow it to be interactive where students can do a gallery walk in groups or pairs and contribute to the charts. It keeps them engaged and gets them moving. We leave these charts up during a lesson or unit so they can look at them/review when needed. They spark great class discussions.

I plan to incorporate the mood check during projects. I plan on giving a Google form mid week to check.

I am very interested in the Leitner method to help improve history vocabulary for all learners.

Geometry - Multimodal Instruction:

I will be implementing the use of Nearpod in my class. This is an online tool that is free to teachers. It is a way to create interactive slides where you can embed videos, create polls, and allow students to respond to a guiding question. You can create a slide set from scratch or use a template.

Create active learning experiences students can’t wait to be a part of.

I can use collaborative learning. I can apply it to my lesson where students are practicing exponent rules. Students will work with a partner. They will have different problems but their answers will be the same. As they go through the practice sheet they will have to check their answers with their partner. If they are not the same they will have to look at both of their problems to see where a mistake has been made.

In our group, we talked about the importance of collaborative learning strategies and the impacts that it has on student participation and learning outcomes. Specifically, we spoke about ways to help add structure to these group activities. Assigning each student a different color to write in on a group poster or graphic organizer instead of specific roles allows the teacher to monitor which students are doing what work. This structure holds every student accountable and ensures that they all gain an understanding of the content.

Use formative assessments for checkpoints and vocabulary

The Academic Word Finder will be great to identify vocabulary that ELs might need extra support with as we read different texts throughout the semester.

Focus on being intentional about building in Multimodal instruction, and trying to reteach information in a new way and not just repeating instruction.

I'll be using the Leitner system with flashcards as an extension activity (a "Should Do") where students can review essential vocabulary words for the entire class (not just unit to unit) to keep them current.

Chunking lessons and taking breaks to check understanding. We chose this strategy because it will be best for block scheduling.

We will be doing these strategies for all classes.

We will use Google forms, Google question prompts and other media to check for understanding.

With musical ensembles, we do major scaffolding and chunking. Students need repetition over small segments of the music. I would like to add something so students can provide feedback for how their chunking goes. Once we get a measure or two, we add more measures until we get a phrase. Then add phrases and phrases together until we have the whole piece down pat.

Use a variety of ongoing Formative Assessments during instruction including quick polls, exit tickets, visual or audible checks

Modeling clear expectations for academic conversation. I picked this because students do a very well job of speaking to each other however, they can get off topic very fast. I planned to use this in our FBI/ safety and sanitation unit. I will give the students guide questions to talk about and they will write/verbally respond in group.

The Leitner flashcard method could be a great system to implement for my dual credit students as a system for studying important figures, vocab, etc.
