Out of the ten ATL skill clusters (white boxes), provide a brief example of how you have used one ATL skill successfully in your first 1-2 units and one skill you would like to use more. en-us 2018-09-25 02:28:23 UTC 2025-12-21 14:57:26 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Thunder.png marie_deal https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285314234 2018-09-25 02:35:03 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285314234 https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285952117

Students will have to share ideas and discuss the topics and make sure both or all members know material before 
they create or present. ]]> 2018-09-26 11:46:03 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285952216 jennifer_gerow https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285952456 2018-09-26 11:46:56 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285952456 https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285952489 We use critical thinking skills when we analyze primary sources.]]> 2018-09-26 11:47:01 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285952489 https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285953153 I have set up groups in my classes assigning each group to research a specific section of a unit. Each group is responsible for presenting their findings to the class. Many groups use PowerPoint, Quizlet, kahoot Etc.]]> 2018-09-26 11:48:51 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285953153 https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/285953289 Formative evaluation (HYS) = Reflective skills (AtL)
Using exit tickets/warm-ups as formative assessments

Classroom discussion (HYS) = Communication Skills (AtL)
Using Socratic Seminars to discuss new information from multiple perspectives

Critical Thinking - we evaluate texts to determine author's purpose and how effective his/her writing style is to communicate that purpose.]]> 2018-09-26 17:10:52 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286153167 taylor_strode https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286153828 One of the easiest way to connect the HYS to ATL is through reflection.  Either group, peer, individual; written or verbal.

Something that works well in my DP classes is our group critique method. Students present finished work along with their exhibit statement and their peers discuss, and evaluate how the successful the piece work is based on 4 criteria and arrange the cards to give a visual representation as well. This hits 4 of ATL skills (thinking, social, and communication, and self management). ]]> 2018-09-26 17:11:57 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286153828 jennifer_drake https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286153961 1.  I use a skill (thesis writing) we've developed in vertical planning & use the same language for students, since we will share them.  In class, we write individually, in small groups, and examine examples as a whole group to see the effective use of this skill.  My students learn the basic skills with Civics content and be able to transfer this writing skill to other classes.    
2. I use remediation/reteaching and re-testing with students. Students are given some choices on what activities they can do to remediate (quizlet, flash cards, or word association, for example) as to what hits their learning styles most effectively. They can further develop these skills as they remediate and apply these skills in new units BEFORE assessments.]]> 2018-09-26 17:12:08 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286153961 https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286154228 We use affective skills & creative thinking skills when discussing self concept, mental/emotional health. We did this through creating personal identity posters and role playing/skits with defense mechanisms.]]> 2018-09-26 17:12:35 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286154228 https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286154396 We use collaboration when they are working on group projects such as designing a roller coaster.  They were also using critical thinking skills when they were considering how the x and y intercepts affect the shape of the graph.
I would like to encourage more reflection on the students part - I usually reflect on a unit and think about changes that I can make but I also want to start encouraging the students to reflect on their work more. ]]> 2018-09-26 17:12:50 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286154396 https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286156304 We used collaboration, transfer & critical thinking in our recent lab, where they had to prove/disprove the statement "There is a stronger correlation between thigh circumference and vertical jump versus height and vertical jump." Students had to work together, collect data, and then individually process their data and draw a conclusion.]]> 2018-09-26 17:16:00 UTC https://padlet.com/marie_deal/ld421tozvjf7/wish/286156304
