1. Helps build connections between new content and prior knowledge
2. Teaches students how to collect and organize information

4. Helps students process and integrate information
5.

She first she hooks the students with a story about the 1836 election illustrating how divided the nation was, but asks them to think back to the last unit where the nation was as united as ever post-War of 1812. She then asks them to study a map of the U.S. on their own and asks them to analyze geographic features and resources. She then asks them to come to their own conclusion of how these differences could have led to sectionalism. 

The teacher then begins her lecture, asking students to make sensory connections as she goes along. She stops every 5 minutes and asks students questions that require different styles of thought.

To synthesize her lesson, the teacher asks the students to apply what they have learned by writing a speech for one of the candidates in the 1840 election.]]> 2023-06-24 22:43:28 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631557678 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631557758 This strategy supports the Engagement Principle by increasing master-oriented feedback and developing self-assessment and reflection.

She hands out a worksheet to students with 3 sets of problems with increasing difficulty.

She reminds them of last week's lessons on reducing fractions. She allows them to choose which level they'd like to practice but asks them to make an informed and thoughtful decision based on the following questions:

1. What makes one level harder than the next?
2. What skills or knowledge would be needed to complete each task?
3. What level do you think will work best for you? Why?

She also tells them that they can ask classmates for help and can check their answers with the answer key at the front of the room. They can also change levels at any time.

The students then used the techniques to create their chapters. The teacher found these chapters to be full of images, metaphors, and narrative devices proving their deep understanding of cellular structure and function while being fun.]]> 2023-06-24 22:52:18 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558832 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558851 This strategy helps students understand the structure between related ideas. Examples include understanding the beginning, middle, and end of all fairy tales; the relationship between the 3 branches of government; or how protons, neutrons, and electrons work together to make up atoms.

This is done by a 3-part extrapolation process:

1. Closely examine known or easily understood sources
2. Extract key structural elements
3. Use newfound structural comprehension to better understand a new source, create a product of their own, or improve an everyday object]]> 2023-06-24 22:52:27 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558851 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558863 This strategy is best conducted in a synchronous, in-person lesson, but can be done in a synchronous online session.]]> 2023-06-24 22:52:33 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558863 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558881 This strategy utilizes Engagement by optimizing individual choice, increasing master-oriented feedback, and developing self-assessment and reflection. 

It meets the Representation principle by offering ways to customize the display of information, clarifying vocabulary, supporting decoding of text,  and guiding information processing. 

It includes the Action & Expression principle by varying methods for response, building fluencies with graduated levels for support, supporting planning and strategy development, and facilitating managing information.]]> 2023-06-24 22:52:40 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558881 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558891 A high school English teacher is having trouble getting her students to respond to A Tale of Two Cities. She begins by presenting a list of key words from the next chapter. After reading the first word "storm," she asks students to create a picture of the word in their mind. She then reads each word on the list with strong emotion.

As she reads each word, she asks students to alter their mental images in order to create a snapshot or movie. After she is done, she allows students to choose how they want to process their images with one of the following options:

1. Draw a picture
2. Develop a question they hope the chapter will answer
3. Generate a prediction about the chapter
4. Describe personal feelings that were evoked

Students share their products and discuss the predictions. She asks students to read the chapter on their own and to discuss whether or not their predictions came true. 

She then asked for feedback on whether the pre-reading exercise affected how they read. Answers included that it was cool to see how the chapter was different from their drawing, that the hey words stood out when they came across them, the chapter was like a movie this time, and it was exciting when the prediction was correct.

After using this strategy a few times, the teacher asks them to choose their own key words. ]]> 2023-06-24 22:52:46 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558891 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558900 This strategy helps students be able to "see" text unfold in their minds by:

1. Drawing their attention to image-laden words in text
2. Encouraging them to make predictions about text based on those images
3. Allowing students to process their images and share their predictions with other students
4. Engaging them in active reading by having them test their predictions against the actual text
5. Teaching them how to use image making independently]]> 2023-06-24 22:52:53 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2631558900 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2635636114 2023-06-30 03:17:44 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2635636114 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2636141953 2023-06-30 21:54:18 UTC https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2636141953 msangelaslate https://padlet.com/msangelaslate/o722gailnb1mxjj6/wish/2636144380 CAST.org.
