    Countering Bias: pre-asess all students over topic in the same way and create groups solely on the data and include lower, medium, and higher level grouping.
    Potential Bias: Knowing the students who are struggling significantly to meet reading goals, may lead to a bias that the student struggles in all subject areas. This may lead to the science instruction not being challenging enough for the students
    Countering Bias: Look at the pre-assessment results of both ELA and science to make decisions about grouping and instruction. Make sure the science instruction does not rely too much on literacy skills.]]>     2018-09-11 16:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/bmroccia/siz7a0wgq8sc/wish/279943876     Lesson 1 bmroccia https://padlet.com/bmroccia/siz7a0wgq8sc/wish/279943877 Objective 1: The first grade student will sequence the main events of a story read aloud and draw pictures of the main events in sequential order with 80% accuracy.

    Students with low socioeconomic status may not have prior knowledge and experiences with pumpkins or the pumpkin life cycle. This may make the book From Seed to Pumpkin hard to understand/relate to. If the students do not understand the book the activities following about sequencing and  retelling will be very difficult. 
    -Lesson 2:
    Many of the students’ developmental levels are below grade level for reading and writing. This may impact students’ ability to comprehend the story, understand the comparisons provided on chart paper, and make it difficult for students to make observations for the science objective.
    -Lesson 3:
    Students who may not have had experiences with buying and carving their own pumpkins may not relate to the story in this lesson. The boy in the story has a jack o lantern that begins to rot and makes new pumpkins. If students have not had this they may not know that pumpkins do this and think that it is a fictional principle.

Based on this data, I know that the students need explicit instruction on sequence of events and the pumpkin life cycle. 
     
    Bailey:     My class is scored an average of 3.3 out of 7 on ELA and 2.9/5 on Science.  WIth this knowledge, I know I need to really focus on the sequencing of events more so than the pumpkin life cycle.  Although, both are important, my students scored quite a bit lower on sequencing a story than on the life cycle.

For example we planned to ask students, “Have any of you carved a pumpkin before?” “What happens over time to the pumpkin if you leave it out?” “Why do you think that would happen?”  “what happened after it rotted?” and “Do you think that would happen to a pumpkin in real life?” All of the questions were planned to have students think and apply their knowledge on pumpkins to a new concept and explain their thinking.

This developed critical thinking skills because they had to decide what events were important enough to make an observation about, what an observation was, and how to explain their observation to others or to the class. We also planned to ask students the similarities between their observations and the books on the pumpkin life cycle, to make connections between the two and apply their skills in another way. ]]> 2018-09-11 16:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/bmroccia/siz7a0wgq8sc/wish/279943899 Critical Thinking bmroccia https://padlet.com/bmroccia/siz7a0wgq8sc/wish/279943900 Students use critical thinking in lesson one by working together to put the events of the story in sequential order. Through this they have to explain and talk through the order with their partner for why a specific card should certain place. Students were asked afterwards to explain how they knew the order to expand their thinking to understand that they got the order by retelling the story in their heads. ]]> 2018-09-11 16:02:18 UTC https://padlet.com/bmroccia/siz7a0wgq8sc/wish/279943900 Concluding Activity bmroccia https://padlet.com/bmroccia/siz7a0wgq8sc/wish/279943901 I will have an open pumpkin that I take seeds out and show the students and let them touch some. The student will discuss what part of the cycle it is. I will talk to the students about how the seeds inside can make new pumpkins, but that it is not the same pumpkin.
