  12. Using TAKS Workshop Effectively TAKS How learning in a lab can work for kids!

  13. Uses of Software • One computer classroom • Computer lab • Credit retrieval

  14. Remember! A computer program is a teaching tool. You are still the teacher and students need your interaction while in the lab.

  15. Accompany your students to the lab.

  16. Put your students in pairs. • Many of the tested concepts are difficult for students at first and some may give up unless they can work with a partner. When the pair shows an 80% mastery level, separate them to show individual mastery.

  17. Bring Materials • Make sure students have pencil and paper in the lab. Just because a problem is on the computer does not mean that it is mental math.

  18. Rewards • Play money • Healthy Snacks • Balloons • Supplies • Cute erasers • Remember - these programs are not video games and students need some motivation.

  19. How long in the lab? • Do not take the student to the lab every day. • 45 minutes to an hour is long enough for any activity. • Vary with hands on classroom activities.

  20. What to cover for instruction? • Tie the lesson in the lab to the lesson in class. • Focus on the outcome. These TAKS items reflect what the student will be held accountable for - therefore after the teacher has taught the lesson, the students should be able to do these problems.

  21. Review for TAKS • Students should take the pretest to determine which student expectations have not been mastered. • Students should work on those expectations first. • As the test approaches, students can review other objectives.

  22. Good Luck!All students CAN learn Math! Passed!
