To fix this, the questions could be changed to short answer. This would in turn make the FA take more time but would provide a more accurate picture of the level of student understanding.]]> 2018-10-04 14:32:19 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289165842 Formative Practice Time - Krista krista_shirk1 https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289182578 Next week we'll continue identifying and naming Google apps. I could use the effective practice time approach from the blog I read. Students that have similar needs/areas of confusion will be placed in small groups/pairs to work at the beginning of class. I will have some students "playing" a matching game with icon and term cards. Other students that performed better this week will be able to go into a Doc in our Classroom to type terms to match with the icons. I will push a few students further to type the function of each app is in addition to the correct terminology. ]]> 2018-10-04 14:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289182578 Create A Quiz - Brooke https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289183483 Today students are learning about the legislative branch and the process of how a bill becomes a law. Tomorrow I could have students start class by creating their own 10 question quiz based on what they learned. They could use notes to help them create the quiz, but not any materials that already have questions on them...I could randomly assigned the quizzes created to other students or pick the ten best questions. Maybe I could have the questions be submitted via some sort of live feed? If I pick the questions, I could create a Google Form and then use the results for review and discussion before we begin our Congressional simulation next week...I could display the results (not the student scores) on the board so we see which percentage of students got the correct result...]]> 2018-10-04 14:56:26 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289183483 SWOT Analysis Collage (Cadan Goldstein) https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289189060 Students will use a Google Doc to create a collage using pictures, words, and examples of each step in our SWOT Analysis. These can then be shared with the rest of the class to give others ideas of things we might include in each section.

Each team will be given a specific problem from the released EOC test questions. The teams will then compete to be the first team to answer the question correctly. Once a team finishes the problem, it is scored right or wrong. The team can then find their error and fix the problem, still in attempt to be the first team to complete the problem correctly. During this time the teacher can ask guiding questions and provide descriptive feedback to help guide the students in fixing the problem. Upon completion of all groups, the problem will be addressed, whole class, to discuss any misconceptions / misunderstandings, providing both the teacher and student information regarding areas of strength and weakness.]]> 2018-10-04 15:05:43 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289189879 Figurative Language- Sarah Heindel https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289190007 Students will learn what figurative language is and the different types of figurative language. After they learn those, students will be put into groups that represent the different types of figurative language: simile, metaphor, hyperbole, and personification. Once they choose their teams, we will read the the poem "I Wondered Lonely as a Cloud". Within their teams, students will see how many examples of their type of figurative language they can find within the poem. They will create a list on the PearDeck slide.  Once students have completed that we will go over what each team found as a class and discuss if all of their findings are correct. Then, at the end, whichever group has the most correct examples is the winner.

This allows me to see if they can identify figurative language and also explain it. ]]> 2018-10-04 15:05:59 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289190007 Intro to physical programming - Jason smithj42 https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289204781 In order to understand how quickly the students will pick up this concept, I will have them pick one of 4 simple projects to complete. ]]> 2018-10-04 15:28:44 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289204781 Main Idea Stations- Mary Nehls nehlsm https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289313809 2018-10-04 18:06:39 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289313809 Human Resource Management (Cadan Goldstein) https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289314610 2018-10-04 18:07:44 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289314610 Physical Computing Stations smithj42 https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289314818 2018-10-04 18:08:03 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289314818 Trig Station Rotation - Matt Wilt wiltm https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289316073 2018-10-04 18:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289316073 vray https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289317098 2018-10-04 18:11:32 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289317098 vray https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289317223 2018-10-04 18:11:44 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289317223 vray https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289317359 2018-10-04 18:11:56 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289317359 3rd Grade Tech research project stations - Krista krista_shirk1 https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289318224 2018-10-04 18:13:18 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289318224 Figurative language- Sarah Heindel https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289320012
  • Mini Lesson/Lecture
    • The lecture would include what figurative language is and the different types. An example of each type of figurative language would also be provided and discussed.
    2.Three stations
    a.Practice:
    Students will be provided a short story or poem.  Additionally they will be provided with some pieces of paper with different figurative language examples.  Students will decide as a group which examples go under each category. As they work within their groups they should be able to discuss and argue for the placement of each example.
    b. Modality
    Students will be provided with some variety in texts (texts types and readings level).  Within each text they will need to underline figurative language examples that they found and label their types.
    c.Teacher stations
    Students will read a small poem with the teacher. Within in the station students will participate in a discussion about examples of figurative language and discuss what it is alluding to. 
    If time allows I would also like to discuss what they found/ discovered in the modality station.
    3. Closure
    Review the different types of figurative language.

It gives the students choice like we talked about today. ]]> 2018-10-04 18:18:10 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289321238 Review (Cadan Goldstein) https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289322967 1. I have seen examples of this activity before, but the way that this is set up is so quick and simple. Students would be able to see the work of peers and can be used during any lesson as a formative assessment.

    2. Qualitative vs. Quantitative Formative Assessment- I have had problems with this as well. I want to be able to hear what students have to say, but there are students that just don't give good quality. Maybe there are other ways to get that data.

    3. The differentiation lesson templates will be useful for me in the future. I normally plan day to day even if I feel like I have a week ready. I will be creating a form like this to fill out for each of my units. ]]>     2018-10-04 18:20:49 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289322967     Thoughts - Matt Wilt wiltm https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289322993 The social media post method of formative assessment can be a useful tool in multiple situations such as a closure activity or summarization activity.
    Having students create a their own quiz is a great idea because it forces them to review what they learned and create quality work since they will be the ones taking the quiz.
    When creating formative assessments, questions need to be created in a way that provides useful information. ]]>     2018-10-04 18:20:52 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289322993     3 thoughts - Krista krista_shirk1 https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289323921 - I like the social media post platform for sharing in a collaborative Slide. Quick, easy. 
    - Talking about formative assessment and revisiting areas of weakness is so important for student success. 
    - I am a huge fan of rotations/stations. It gives students the element of choice, time with the teacher, and addresses several modalities so every student can cover the content in a way they connect with and as a result they feel confident and successful!]]>     2018-10-04 18:22:24 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289323921     Thought https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289324291 -I enjoyed the activities that encourages competition.  Competition seems to be a good way to encourage students to work hard. 
    -I enjoyed seeing how different people think about lesson plans and seeing what they focus on.
    -Suggestion: When putting students in different groups it is very helpful to have a piece of paper at each station that provides instructions and expectations.

    Brooke - Create a quiz: I love the idea of having the kids write their own quiz. Now they have no one to blame but themselves if they fail it.
    Sarah - Stations: Differentiation in the station with them reading at their own level. Have you heard of NewELA - you can find the same article that is presented in different lexile levels to match their needs.

Cadan - I like you struggle with chunking stuff together and trying to the old school method of teaching to them instead of letting them self-teach. I think that for the types of subjects we teach it can sometimes be more difficult since the content is more abstract.

    2. Cadan (again) - I really like how you took the SWOT analysis and updated it with the collage...it makes it fresher for the students and more creative, which is more engaging.

    3. Mary - I really like your idea of taking the same concept (the main idea) and having the students do the same thing (analyzing main ideas) but doing different tasks.]]>     2018-10-04 18:29:54 UTC https://padlet.com/vray/p12928rupiuc/wish/289328617
