Strategy: Re-grouping students

Step 1 - Re-group students who seem to work with the same students often based on grade, etc. This way students work with new students who may have different experiences/perspectives (e.g. different grades); have them spend time identifying questions to ask each other to get to know each other and have a conversation (social skills practice)]]> 2019-01-09 20:18:34 UTC https://padlet.com/khowell13/8zqwi9ad8f11/wish/319001295 Brenda, Anne, Tara, Laura, Greg, Bill, Kristen Stewart, Kristin Churila, Heidi Turgeon https://padlet.com/khowell13/8zqwi9ad8f11/wish/319001594 ECC Strategy: Explicitly stating the objective and purpose of the lesson. Connecting to prior knowledge, modeling in step-by-step the task and how to begin and carry it out. 
Step #1:  Read the objective out loud each class and have students connect the to the unit. 
Conversation tracker to foster community amongst students and get to know each other. 

ECC Strategy: Popsicle strategy - give multiple/different  reinforcement/praise for students.   ]]> 2019-01-09 20:19:13 UTC https://padlet.com/khowell13/8zqwi9ad8f11/wish/319001594 Artis suartis https://padlet.com/khowell13/8zqwi9ad8f11/wish/319001841 ECC: our environment honors the experiences of our students

Strategy-QFT
Step One-Determine a Q-focus that will not only engage learners but provide enough material for them to create deep questions.
Step Two: Run through the first step(s) of the process and provide explicit instruction with regards to each step:
a. give them time Q-focus
b.give them structured time (limited to 5-7 minutes) to ask questions.
c. Have them sort by importance.
d. Have them identify as open and closed. 
e. Have them change one open question to a closed and one closed to an open.

Strategy: Using background knowledge (government knowledge and knowledge about the country of study)

Step 1 - Research effective methods for activating prior knowledge, and building on previously taught content

Step 1- have a conversation in classes about how we can "revise"  the physical space of the classroom/pod to better represent their ideas/cultures/languages/perspectives. (the idea of "storyentation":
how do we tell OUR stories? Who are we as 9th graders?)

Potential questions for students: what could we change in this space to remind you more of your home/community? What could we

Potential outcomes: upgrading bulletin boards based on student suggestions; highlighting/celebrating different cultures with visuals on walls; who are figures in history/society who you see as role models?-- post quotes/images of those people.

Strategy - Increase opportunities to respond. 

Step 1 - Revise planned lessons for the next two weeks to include at least two opportunities for every student to respond during each class, in a variety of ways.
