This helps the students to start thinking about the subject. A way to activate their schema could be a KWL as a class based on the pictures so that the students could learn from each other's experiences. John Kulik]]> 2022-10-10 19:24:17 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2334106384 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2335438984 This is very important because this allows the students to realize that everyone brings a little something to the table and also students will not feel like they are missing out if they do not have the same schema as their peers.

This allows for all the students within the classroom to make connections despite the variety of differences outside of it. When students are reading different books, I would encourage them to attempt to read books about topics that are familiar them to encourage the use of connections. ]]> 2022-10-11 17:43:44 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2335740024 efrenduartemartinez https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2335757188 One way that I would incorporate schema into my lessons plan is using it to assess students' background knowledge. This could then serve as a guide to see what the classroom needs in regards to content. Schema would then be used in the form of encouraging students to ask the question, "what do I want to learn". This would encourage them to expand on their knowledge to help them build on their comprehension on a particular topic/strategy. ]]> 2022-10-11 17:54:32 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2335757188 efrenduartemartinez https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2335770690 The questions that I would ask would revolve around their experience with the topic and the effects of that experience.

This was a great way to see the diverse community we live in while also allowing us to be able to address these topics in class. A lot of my students celebrated Diwali and when we found that out we were able to incorporate an activity into our week about Diwali so that the student felt included. This also allowed us to find books that these students connected too. It is important to understand the students backgrounds so that they can be represented through reading and in class activities.]]> 2022-10-13 15:06:58 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2338949450 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2338960492 I would incorporate schema into my lesson plans by activating prior knowledge and thinking.

For instance the picture walk allows for students to make their own personal connections and think about what might happen. ]]> 2022-10-13 19:38:05 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339349323 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339436838 In my placement, a couple of my mentor teachers have sent home forms with parents that ask what their culture is like so they can accurately express the culture to the class when the discussion arrives. I have also seen the teacher ask the student to create a presentation about their culture to show other students. (These were older students.) It was really nice to see older students explaining their own culture to their peers. It allows the teacher to find assignments, mentor texts, topics, and more that is connected to the students' different cultures. ]]> 2022-10-13 21:22:27 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339436838 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339442064 If I were to show schema to my class, I would use a mentor text to model using my schema. Taking something we have previously learned and incorporating it into my lesson throughout a text set. Modeling the strategy is really important; asking questions and answering them yourself can help students understand the use of schema when reading. ]]> 2022-10-13 21:30:04 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339442064 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339445980 During a "We Do" portion, I would definitely ask prompting questions that get the students' minds rolling. This would include questions like "How does this book relate to our previous book?" and "How does the event in this book relate to this event in our previous book?" This would activate their prior knowledge about a previous book. ]]> 2022-10-13 21:35:56 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339445980 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339451675 I think it is important for other students to understand that others think differently than they do. It's important to hear what other people think because it could change their opinion on a concept or change their strategy on a math problem. This can also be used in connection with collaboration to help other students understand what other people think! ]]> 2022-10-13 21:44:50 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339451675 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339454025 These strategies help student develop a deeper understanding by developing the use of activating their prior knowledge. When you are reading a book about a certain topic to your class, it could be beneficial to watch a video on the topic or read a similar book about the topic. This will allow the students to activate their prior knowledge. ]]> 2022-10-13 21:48:45 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2339454025 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340562658 Hey Anna Rose I agree with what you said about how peers who learn differently can help one another when it comes to stuff some students may struggle with.]]> 2022-10-14 14:35:55 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340562658 https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340564776 Hey Emma I totally agree with how you would incorporate schema in the classroom.

When addressing how to incorporate schema, you could add a box or a bulleted list place where students put their thoughts into words and make 3 connections between something read in their book and their life. ]]> 2022-10-14 18:47:19 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340878621 lorenmarymartha https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340880536 I think this is what the "activate prior knowledge" portion of our lesson plan is all about. We begin lessons and discussion by recalling what we have already talked about and connecting it to new content and skills. Additionally, while teaching I think lines of questioning such as how things could be applied, where have you seen this before, or can you think of something similar you have done in class in the past would be helpful for activating schema as well.]]> 2022-10-14 18:49:24 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340880536 lorenmarymartha https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340881932 This question makes me think more in the direction of building students' character and world view. This all plays into helping students see that the world is very diverse and it is important to learn to consider others with different backgrounds than yourself and to listen to and learn from those people. ]]> 2022-10-14 18:50:46 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340881932 lorenmarymartha https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340884188 Many of these strategies had a visual element or a way of explaining the concept that gave students a good mental image that accurately reflects the process being discussed. I think these are so important and helpful to give students tangible visuals and concrete illustrations of a relatively abstract concept because many students struggle when it comes to abstract concepts in school. Especially younger students or some students with special needs. ]]> 2022-10-14 18:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340884188 lorenmarymartha https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2340885503 Annabelle I like the ideas you mentioned here.

It is also vital to emphasize that this affects how they think and work within the classroom. I believe that as educators, we should encourage our students to get to know their peers regarding both similarities and differences. This way, students can help each other out and support one another. ]]> 2022-10-14 22:33:42 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2341015087 efrenduartemartinez https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2341016054 I also mentioned something similar to you. I believe that it is important to assess what students know to activate their schema as well as what they would like to know. Students should always try to expand on their knowledge and as educators, we should try our best to facilitate this. This seems like an effective way of activating and developing their schema on a particular topic. ]]> 2022-10-14 22:36:35 UTC https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2341016054 Annarose_Brice https://padlet.com/annagracenesbitt1/drwtnc6ustp6rvec/wish/2341043941 I agree that allowing students to give their input on what they want will help drive that passion for learning.
