Key points outlining effective practices for differentiating instruction for all learners, with specific focus on science content and the 5E model. How can your co-teaching strategies be used to differentiate instruction? Which strategies would you use? Use your understanding of Multiple Intelligences and Learning Preferences to also give examples of activities that meet the needs of all students. en-us 2018-02-17 16:05:55 UTC 2018-02-21 02:31:28 UTC hello@padlet.com lechebbi https://padlet.com/lechebbi/gliywk2ne6d4/wish/233577999 3 Takeaways:
1. It is always a great idea to get your ELL's sharing and talking with others in group discussions.
2. It is important to give your ELL's vocabulary ahead of time and make sure they are pronouncing them correctly.
3. Hands on learning is great for ELL's because it gives them that hands on experience to make real life connections.
Different ways to differentiate learning for ELL's within the 5E learning cycle:
Engage- I can engage my ELL student by asking some key questions before starting lessons that would peak his interest in the topics I will be coving
Explore- I can give my ELL hands on experience where he can explore the materials to grasp a better understanding.
Explain- I can explain th etopic using key vocabulary that the student has gotten before hand.
Elaborate- I can elaborate on key terms and concepts by connecting them with the life of the student, so that he can make his own connections to life outside of the classroom.
Evaluate- Some ways in which I can evaluate this student would be to use the think-pair-share to assess the learning goals the student has met.
Multiple Intellegences Activities for ALL learners:
1. Linguistic- creative writing, formal speaking, jokes/rhymes, journal entries, poetry, etc.
2. Musical- environmental sounds, instrumental sounds, rapping, percussion, etc.
3. Logical/Mathematical- calculations, formulas, graphic organizers, etc.
4. Spatial- active imagination, color, texture, drawing, painting, etc.
5. Kinesthetic- sports games, dance routines, reenactment, etc.
6. Intrapersonal- emotional processing, concentration skills, know thyself procedures etc.
7. Interpersonal- collaborative skills, empathy practices, giving feedback
8. Naturalistic- caring for the planets and animals, environment feedback, hands on labs, nature encounter etc.
9. Spiritualistic- discuss right/wrong behaviors, role playing, reaction writing
Co-teaching Strategies/ Strategies I would use...
A co-teaching strategy I would use could be:
Some co-teaching strategies that you could use would be:
1. one teach-one assist- this is done when one teacher is teaching the lessons while another watches a few students to see how they are learning and apply any changse or modifications to their learning experience.
This has been the main teaching strategy in the class I am currently in and it gives the teacher who is teaching the lesson a better understanding of what each student is doing while they are focused on the lesson. It is a great way to get information back to one another on what certain students may or may not be doing while they are supposed to be paying attention as well.
I am always looking to the students who require more help then others while my master teaching is teaching lessons so that I may suggest better ways to reach those students who may be struggling. I also hold small group when it is independent work time and adjust learning strategies based on the students I am working with.
Key points for ALL learners:
Some key points that I have found for all learners in science is that it is best to have them get hands on with experiments. This gives everyone the chance to make their own connections to how things may be working or not working within an experiment. For example, the students in my 4th grad class have recently done a science lesson on the three types of rock (sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic) I divided up 10 different kinds of rocks and also gave them tools to scratch rocks to find their streak and color. I had also listed the rocks as they were laid out on their trays by their names. The students could then look at their tables in their text books and decide what kind of rock it was based on its characteristics. This was a great way for ALL students in the class to have a better understanding of the lesson they were being taught. I have had several students now want to share the rocks they have found over the weekend]]> 2018-02-21 02:02:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lechebbi/gliywk2ne6d4/wish/233577999
