  1. Day 4Understanding and Supporting Instruction for ALLNovember 13th, 2014

  2. Learning Targets (Content Objectives) for Today: • Deepen understanding of instruction that’s effective for all learners through SIOP, UDL and Criteria 4, 5 and 6. • Increase awareness of strategies, resources, and practices to help classroom teachers improve their effectiveness with diverse learners (focusing on Core Instructional Practices 1, 2, 4 and 8). • Increase effectiveness with providing formative feedback that will improve core instruction for all students- identifying next steps/verge of feedback. Recognize Support Provide Feedback

  3. Success Criteria (Language Objectives): • I can participate in an academic discussion with my team about effective instruction for diverse learners within Criteria 4, 5 and 6 and SIOP and UDL. • I can make a list of ideas to help me support teachers to enhance their instruction for diverse learners, focusing on Core Instructional Practices 1, 2, 4 and 8. • I can analyze instruction and practice giving effective, formative feedback to a teacher based on the needs of the teacher and his/her students in her zone of proximal development.

  4. Response to Feedback • More strategies • Keep the crosswalking • Less review • More video

  5. Before we get started:Look Through your Materials and Reflect • Take a few minutes by yourself to look at your materials (books, papers, digital notes, tools, etc.) from the previous days of learning together. • Using your salmon (pinkish orange) reflection sheet and write down: • Connections • What you understand now • What you want to explore • What questions you still have

  6. Make your Appointments • Find a partner from another team for each of your four (4) appointments . Write down the name of the person for each time. • 12:00___________ • 3:00____________ • 6:00____________ • 9:00____________

  7. It’s 3:00!!!Find your partner.

  8. Understanding and Supporting Instruction for ALL Purpose: To share an opportunity for principals, along with their teams, to deepen their understanding of effective instruction for diverse learners.

  9. What’s in your toolbox? Discuss with your 3:00 date: • What do you already know that helps you to understand AND support instruction that’s effective for ALL students? • How does it help?

  10. What’s in your toolbox? (cont.) Discuss with your 3:00 date: • What do you still need to learn to help you understand AND support instruction that’s effective for ALL students? • Why do you need that knowledge?

  11. Please thank your partners and saunter (walk quickly) back to your seat.

  12. Goal Setting • Thinkback to what you wanted to learn and be able to do as a result of the 5 days spent here. • Write down your own goal for today, based on your reflections. • Share your goal with an elbow partner. • If it’s outside of our learning targets, write it on a sticky and put it in the parking lot.

  13. Learning Targets (Content Objectives) for Today: • Deepen understanding of instruction that’s effective for all learners through SIOP, UDL and Criteria 4, 5 and 6. • Increase awareness of strategies, resources, and practices to help classroom teachers improve their effectiveness with diverse learners (focusing on Core Instructional Practices 1, 2, 4 and 8). • Increase effectiveness with providing formative feedback that will improve core instruction for all students- identifying next steps/verge of feedback.

  15. Card Sort for Criteria 4, 5 and 6 In your team: • Create categories from your framework cards (biggest and on pink card stock) Discuss, using discussion cards: • Where to place the SIOP features (green card stock) and UDL checkpoints under each category- not all of these cards must be used • Keep your cards where they are.

  16. Individually, complete your tool for Criteria 4, 5, and 6 (understanding columns) based on your card sort.

  17. Time for a 5 minute break

  18. Candy Re-Grouping • Find the table with the candy wrapper that matches what you chose this morning.

  19. Bridging to Fundamentals • 3 main ideas- pg. 5 • Use your Expert Text to explore your section. • Use your Mind Map for taking notes.

  20. Back to your Team Take turns, each participant will: • Teach the team about their section, using their Mind Map to guide them. • Teammates take notes on your mind maps. • Teammates pose questions using discussion cards.

  21. Process Grid • Read “In Practice”, pp. 7-10 and annotate. • Put a star next to the bullet in each section that is the most important for you. • As a team, complete the digital copy of your process grid (one person can be the recorder). Be sure to include all of the starred items from your team members

  22. Time for a 5 minute break

  25. It’s 6:00!!!Find your partner. Bring your Questions Handout and a pen or pencil.

  26. Asking the Right Questions • How can we ask questions with high cognitive demand and low language loads? • Comprehensible input and output • Read the handout with your partner • As you walk around the room, try to come up with a level 3 question that would be comprehensible to a level 1 or 2 English learner.

  27. Learning Targets (Content Objectives) for Today: • Deepen understanding of instruction that’s effective for all learners through SIOP, UDL and Criteria 4, 5 and 6. • Increase awareness of strategies, resources, and practices to help classroom teachers improve their effectiveness with diverse learners (focusing on Core Instructional Practices 1, 2, 4 and 8). • Increase effectiveness with providing formative feedback that will improve core instruction for all students- identifying next steps/verge of feedback.

  29. Applying our Knowledge • Decide which group mates will attend to which aspects of the note-taking tool: SIOP UDL Fundamentals of Learning • Principals may want to practice scripting to capture all that is happening for group. • Watch the video clip from JB Blair and take notes

  30. Insert Video Clip • JB Blair

  31. Discussion Cards • Take out your yellow “Share your Thinking” card, the red “Cite Evidence” card and purple “Build on an Idea Card” • Discuss what you noticed in the video that directly relates to SIOP, UDL and the Fundamentals of Learning.

  32. Random Response

  33. Writing Practice with Support • Explain how the fundamentals of learning were exhibited in the instruction we just saw. • Describe how the instruction we just saw is inconsistent with the fundamentals of learning. • Use the “Ways we express our thinking” guide to help you write a paragraph for each prompt (the orange section may be the most helpful)

  34. Formative FeedbackLearning-Focused Conversations • Based on the data collected, what can you identify as: • A strength (can)? • Something that you can help him integrate into his practice (verge of)? • Something that he will need continued support to be able to do in the longer term (far from)?

  35. Short-Term Feedback Guidelines • Related to the teacher’s area of focus • Can be incorporated into a teacher’s practice relatively easily • Within the teacher’s zone of proximal development • Specific support for improving the teacher’s practice

  36. Invitational Noticings and Wonderings • Write down a couple suggestions you have for Mr. Blair as a follow-up from your observation based on his ZPD. • Take turns with your partner (role play JB and principal or colleague) using invitational inquiry and suggestions for something to try tomorrow.

  37. Card Sort • SIOP + UDL + Fundamentals of Learning

  38. Reflections • What is your team taking away from this activity? Trends, noticings, surprises… • What implications does this learning have on our understanding of, and support for, instruction for all?

  45. Strategies we’ve loved and lost… • In your team, write down as many strategies from previous workshops as you can remember. • Figure out where each strategy belongs in the template. • When you have 7-10 let me know • Be ready to share a strategy that you haven’t heard yet (for a prize).

  46. Did you remember these? • Where do they belong in our template? • In what ways are they supporting or promoting the fundamentals of learning?
