  1. Multi-grade Planning By Linda Kolmel October 2013

  2. Rule #1 Good Teaching is harder than Bad Teaching

  3. Rule #2 Not all teachers have the same skill set.

  4. Rule #3 All good teaching does not look the same.

  5. Rule #4 Small changes can make a big difference.

  6. Ponder This… • Not teaching 2 or more curriculums • Class unity lost with separation • Standards Guide Instruction • CCSS builds knowledge systematically • NGSSS overlap in some areas • Plan with the end in mind; KUD • Know • Understand • Do

  7. Begin with… • School Calendar • Using pacing guides, write topics into calendar • Color code for each grade • Integrate Cross-Curricular Lessons • Goals • Routines

  8. Goals • Useable Strategies • Transfer • Have a good time

  9. Teaching Routines • Model, Teach, Counter, Practice • What should it look like? • What should it sound like? • “What do we do when that happens?” • Reflect

  10. Routines • Start of Day • End of Day • Questions • Finished with Work • Turn in & What to do • Classroom Paths

  11. How Do I Ask A Question? • Direct Instruction • Guided Practice • Independent Practice

  12. Academics will move slower in the beginning because you are teaching routines.

  13. Daily Five • Read to Self • Work on Writing • Read to Someone • Listen to Reading • Word Work

  14. CAFE • Comprehension • I understand what I read • Accuracy • I can read the words • Fluency • I can read accurately, with expression, and understand what I read • Extend Vocabulary • I know, find and use interesting words

  15. Cross-Curricular • Differentiation • Content: Varied materials & resources used by all students as they work to meet the same standards • Process: Varied activities students participate in to process or make sense of the content • Product: Varied ways for students to shoe what they understand, know and are able to do • Discovery Education

  16. Reading / CCSS ELA • Whole Group • Read Alouds • Vocabulary • Small Groups • Reading Text Selections • Leveled Readers • Reading Foundations/Skills orientated • Strategies & Skills overlap along learning continuum • Instruct Reading in Content Areas • Workstations

  17. Math • Activity Guides • Van de Walle Teaching Student Centered Mathematics • AIMS Activity Books • Super Source • Envision Animated Videos • Workstation Activities

  18. Science • Note Pacing Sequence (High, Moderate, Low) • Body of Knowledge Areas • Nature of Science • Life Science • Earth Science • Physical Science

  19. Social Studies • Pacing Guide • Integrate in Reading • Brevard Website; Elementary Programs

  20. Resources • The Daily Five by Gail Boushey and Joan Moser • The CAFÉ Book: Engaging All Students in Daily Literary Assessment and Instruction by Gail Boushey and Joan Moser • Practice with Purpose: Literacy Work Stations for Grades 3-6 by Debbie Diller • Math Work Stations: Independent Learning You Can Count On, K-2 by Debbie Diller • Maximize Tier One by Pat Quinn
