Briefly describe what you did/how you taught the lesson so that students understood it. aclough1 https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/259040667 2018-05-08 18:21:29 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/259040667 Citing meaningful text evidence to support the GIST. We read short passages and found TE together until student were comfortable and successful. Used a graphic organizer to break it down. https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248844

You need to use the text and your schema to make a reasonable guess as to what the answer probably is. Then examples were provided to practice and talk about inference.]]> 2018-06-14 17:10:11 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248878 inference https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248879 2018-06-14 17:10:11 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248879 Citing Textual Evidence https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248886 My learners showed some struggle with textual evidence. I gave them 'known stories" (previously read) and asked questions that were obvious. The catch...no more than 5 words could be copied from the text. So, they restated the text and gave the text stem to connect to the given text. We also used post its and traded. Then tried to 'match' where our friend was getting their answer. ]]> 2018-06-14 17:10:14 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248886 When I was reading about children coming to America as immigrants in the 1800s...difficult for them to understand the differences in the tme setting....so we talked and looked at other things that happened at this time period or did not yet happen at this time period then went back to the story for better understanding. https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248887 2018-06-14 17:10:14 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248887 Finding evidence from the passage-and using it in a written response. https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248902

I modeled using FUN, Find, underline, number. https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248916 2018-06-14 17:10:22 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248916 fact/opionion https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248929 give an opionion and have them make it a fact

scan an article and have them find 5 facts]]> 2018-06-14 17:10:27 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248929 The most difficult concept was making inferences using the text. I implemented an inference game that we played together whole group and took turns telling what evidence supported their response from the text. https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248945 2018-06-14 17:10:36 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248945 https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248951 Inference]]> 2018-06-14 17:10:37 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248951 Writing. The group last year struggled with confidence. So I did a lot of modeling and took small steps. Used graphic organizers. https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248952 2018-06-14 17:10:37 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248952 many of my students have no prior knowledge because ESL use Many Visuals to build knowledge https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248966 2018-06-14 17:10:42 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248966 Citing text evidence- had students underline the evidence in the passage before they write their answers https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248987 2018-06-14 17:10:54 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248987 Comparing and Contrasting was difficult for my students. We made sentence strips with descriptions of characters and then moved them around on our desks to show ways characters were similar and different. (a different color for each character) https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248998 2018-06-14 17:10:58 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267248998 Writing https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249022 The most difficult concept for students was writing. Students usually wrote just a couple of sentences about a topic before saying they were done. I implemented graphic organizers to help them generate ideas of points they could write about in their writing.]]> 2018-06-14 17:11:09 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249022 Main idea and detail. https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249023
I did an activity where I gave the students the main idea and they came up with the details. Then I gave them details and they had to come up with the main idea. We also did sorting and classifying as a review/reteach.]]> 2018-06-14 17:11:09 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249023 Looking for evidence https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249044 I would say "Prove It!!" when anyone gave an answer, in writing or verbally during discussion.

They would put the definition right in the sentence and see if it made sense. I knew they learned when they started choosing the correct definitions to unknown words with greater accuracy.]]> 2018-06-14 17:11:34 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249066 figurative language https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249070 I used Amelia Bedelia books to show and discuss.

I made students always read the question/questions first so they could "dig" for that information and set their purpose for reading that paragraph or passage.]]> 2018-06-14 17:11:47 UTC https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249094 Putting things in chronological order https://padlet.com/aclough1/pnxbwh6t0uc1/wish/267249107 What happened first, second, next, last.

They must use evidence in the text plus their own schema to develop a reasonable answer to the question.  Then provide many examples and have the kids talk out the answer orally and finally provide them with independent practice and guide as needed.
