Lesson Planning Reflections by Karen Maloney https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw How has your lesson planning changed since our February PD Collaborative Session? Please add any other reflections you have about your lesson planning journey. en-us 2019-03-14 19:38:36 UTC 2019-03-25 15:59:25 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Lightdecrease.png I've learned that I need to intentionally plan my questions to help guide my lesson where I want it to go (what I want the students to learn). Without being intentional, I can't ensure that I'm going to hit my target. https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873208 2019-03-25 15:24:50 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873208 Reflection https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873247 Our lesson planning has changed drastically since our February PD. We have had planning that is purposeful and digging deeper within what we want to teach and how we want to teach it. Also, that it is not just passing out papers, but planning based on the standard. ]]> 2019-03-25 15:24:54 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873247 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873277 Less about broad ideas and more about digging deeper ]]> 2019-03-25 15:24:57 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873277 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873425 I am trying to always have an essential question for each lesson.]]> 2019-03-25 15:25:14 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873425 Making sure to always start with the standard:) https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873475

We have spent time discussing how we will teach the concept/goal to students. We have also spent time working on how they will show us that they have understood what we taught that day/week. ]]> 2019-03-25 15:25:57 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873830 We have been digging deeper into the standards vs. sharing "activities". https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873846 2019-03-25 15:25:58 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873846 Reminder to use something simple like a picture to activate prior knowledge https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873850 2019-03-25 15:25:58 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873850 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873871 I have become more intentional with goal. I try to simplify the activities and focus on the goal that is trying to be taught. Also, be more mindful of what to look for to know when students understand the goal. ]]> 2019-03-25 15:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873871 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873895 Since our last PD, I have been more purposeful in my planning. For instance,  I have been asking myself the question "What am I wanting my students to learn-EXACTLY- before I write the lesson. I've also been reflecting more after the lesson. ]]> 2019-03-25 15:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873895 I'm trying to make sure students know what goal they are working toward during each session and we talk about how the goal was targeted. https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873908 2019-03-25 15:26:04 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873908 GANAG=Great teaching https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873917 2019-03-25 15:26:06 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873917 Planning with the goal in mind. Making sure the goal ties to the standard not an activity. https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873957 2019-03-25 15:26:09 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873957 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873971 My lesson planning has not changed because it is set for me with the structure of phonics First. It doesn’t really allow for flexibility because we are asked to implement the program with fidelity staying true to the phonics First format. I fixed the typo because I’m good like that. ]]> 2019-03-25 15:26:11 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344873971 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874084 I am more focused on the standard I am teaching.]]> 2019-03-25 15:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874084 I have tried to make sure that questions are making my students use higher level thinking skills. https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874154 2019-03-25 15:26:31 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874154 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874264 I’m more focused on having a list of questions when teaching a lesson. It’s improved my preparedness in teaching.]]> 2019-03-25 15:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874264 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874302 Our planning has changed to focusing on the goal rather than just a broad standard. We were just looking at the standards we were needing to address and sharing a few resources but were mostly left to our own devices as far as how we were teaching. Now we all bring to the table how we are considering how we are going to address each standard and we build off of those ideas to come up with a common lesson.

Time well spent https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874482 2019-03-25 15:27:08 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874482 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874561 It is important to go to the standards first and then find the resource that fits best with that particular standard.

]]> 2019-03-25 15:27:17 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874561 I am beginning with the end in mind, making sure that I have higher level questions prepared helping to keep students engaged and focused on the goal. https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874572 2019-03-25 15:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874572 https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874583 I feel a little more focused in our team planning. We always need to be reminded to start with the standard and go from there.]]> 2019-03-25 15:27:20 UTC https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874583 We have been picking one standard to plan deeper as a team. Plan questions, activities, and goal together. https://padlet.com/karen_maloney/dzd8t4wf1ydw/wish/344874678
