They are the "Big Ideas" of our unit of study.

It's helpful to begin your understandings with the phrase...
"Students will understand that..."]]> 2016-07-05 19:00:06 UTC https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115967554 What do I want my students to be able to DO? shpelletier https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115967618 Do's are skills and processes that are written as statements beginning with a verb.

Examples of verbs are compare, contrast, formulate, predict, classify, describe, summarize, and distinguish.

Remember, Do's are the applications of learning, NOT activities for students to complete.]]> 2016-07-05 19:01:36 UTC https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115967618 shpelletier https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115968162 2016-07-05 19:16:09 UTC https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115968162 Thinking Through the When and How of Differentiation shpelletier https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115968299 page 9]]> 2016-07-05 19:20:00 UTC https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115968299 What DOES a KUDo's look like? shpelletier https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/115968375 Here's an example for an Elementary Geometry unit (found on page 7)

Students will…

Know

· Definition of: line, line segment, angle, triangle, quadrilateral

Understand

· Geometric shapes have specific properties

Be able to

· Identify and describe geometric shapes in their environment

· Construct geometric shapes and identify their properties

It sounds like the top kids could still be held back. Going to 200 instead of 100 is not too advanced if you've grabbed the concept.

It was nice to have an interview from the girl who said she appreciated the reteaching opportunities. I'm just thinking: How would I feel if I were always in the "reteach" group?]]> 2016-07-06 19:01:20 UTC https://padlet.com/shpelletier/6o30u6dpantt/wish/116019670
