  • "3 things you didn't know"
  • "2 things that surprised you about this topic/ lesson"
  • "1 thing you want to start doing with what you've learned"
The teacher will then instruct them to write using these prompts on ether paper or notecards, ether provided by the teacher or students already possess in their school supplies. When students have ether finished their writing, or time is up, the teacher will then collect their writing and use it to create a "formative assessment" on the classes understanding and comprehension on the topic(s)/ lesson(s).

After the instruction, teachers will ask students to write a quick paragraph summary of what they just learned and then they turn in those their papers to the teacher. The summary paragraphs will be assessed to see if students understand the objective, need extra support, or if the teacher didn't touch or explain something that is crucial, clearly or effectively]]> 2018-03-10 22:12:55 UTC https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240500113 How To Implement This In the Classroom: rbowen6 https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240500152 The teacher will implement this activity by first, proving the students with ether a prompt or an (open- ended) question, then have students take a moment to think about their answer in their heads (give them about 15 seconds), and after they've come up with an answer, and everyone is on the same page, the teacher will then instruct them to "turn" and "talk" (state and explain their answer) to the person besides them.

Some ways teachers can assess the students using "Think- Pair- Share" activity are by walking around and "eavesdropping" on each student "pairs" to determine whether they understand the objective/ information in the lesson(s), or the teacher could collect (or glance over their shoulders while they are writing their answer(s)) the students' answer paper and later use it to "skim" through, so they will have information to judge their student's (individual or as a whole) level of understanding/ comprehension. By having gained and received the awareness of students knowledge and comprehension, provided information from the activity, teachers can use that to plan out future lessons. ]]> 2018-03-10 22:16:00 UTC https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240500303 How To "Assess" Students During This Activity: rbowen6 https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240503082 The teacher can assess their students understanding, comprehension, confusion, or areas of need (as a whole or as individuals) using this activity, by looking through their answers to see what they wrote, or teachers can observe student behaviors and body language to tell whether they are frustrated, or the student that excels within the subject but is now bored due to not feeling challenge enough, or held back.]]> 2018-03-10 23:03:04 UTC https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240503082 How To "Assess" Students During This Activity: rbowen6 https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240503087 2018-03-10 23:03:18 UTC https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240503087 How To "Assess" Students During This Activity: rbowen6 https://padlet.com/rbowen6/sx6nn162gjok/wish/240505455 During the students discussion, the teacher will implement the "formative assessment" by walking around the groups and listening to their answer to assess their "level of comprehension" or "area of needs".
