  1. Lesson Plans and SAS How to use SAS to develop lesson plans for next year

  2. Objectives • Familiarize faculty with lesson plan format for next year. • Connect Standards Aligned System (SAS) with lesson plan development. • Develop one lesson plan from the content that you taught this week. • Compose questions about lesson plans and SAS.

  3. Schedule • Lesson plan format introduced and discussed • Connect SAS to lesson plan • Development of a lesson plan- will break into grade levels • Return to whole group at 11:20 • A lesson plan will need to be handed into Dr. Johnston at the end of this workshop.

  4. Things needed for this workshop • Handouts • Lesson Plan Template/Explanation Form • Essential Questions Handout • Cheat Sheet for Lesson Planning and SAS • Computer • Quick Flip Questions for Critical Thinking • Your own lesson plans and materials from your class this week.

  5. Introduction • Fact: • Next year: Lesson plans required to be handed in. • Elementary – Reading Block • Why am I giving this presentation? • Attended conferences concerning SAS • Evidence of SAS is expected to be in your lesson plans • I am to connect SAS with lesson plan development.

  6. Here we go…… Let’s dig in! • Handout: Lesson Plan Explanation and Examples • Top of the Lesson Plan

  7. Standards • What needs to be included? • The number should be included and the standard should be written out.

  8. Standards • Example: • 1.3.4.D Identify literary devices in selected readings (e.g., personification, simile, alliteration, metaphor).

  9. Standards • Resources to help you: • SAS website (Clear Standards, Vertical Viewer)

  10. Eligible Content • What needs to be included? • The number should be included and the standard should be written out

  11. Eligible Content • Example: • R4.B.2.1.1 Identify, explain, and/or interpret examples of personification in text.

  12. Eligible Content • Resources to help you • SAS website (Learning Progressions, Vertical Viewer, Curriculum Framework)

  13. Essential Questions • What needs to be included? • You need to have at least one essential question in your lesson plan

  14. What is an Essential Question • An essential question is the essence of what your students will examine and learn in the course of their study. Essential questions stem from your planning around what you want your students to deeply understand about the concept they are studying, and how they can apply their understanding of the foundational “big ideas” to their world.

  15. Essential Questions……. • Are worth asking and are meaningful • Cannot be answered by a yes or no • Engage students in real life problem-solving • Spark our curiosity and sense of wonder • Require a high level of thinking • Are more about learning than teaching • Challenge students to demonstrate that they understand the relationship between what they are learning and larger world issues. • Involve thinking, not just answering • Cannot be answered in one answer

  16. How do I write Essential Questions? • Use a reasonable number (1-3 per unit of study) • Use the key words: how, what impact, what effect/affect, why, if, etc. • Design questions that reflect the standards and “big ideas of your content area.” • Sequence your questions so they lead naturally from one to another. • Remember: If a question is too specific, or can be answered with a few words or a sentence, it is probably not essential.

  17. Essential Questions Examples • Literacy • How does the interaction with text provoke thinking and response? • How can our knowledge and use of the research process promote lifelong learning? • How do we think while reading in order to understand and respond? • How does interaction with text provoke thinking and response?

  18. Example from Lesson Plan • How will understanding the use of figurative language (personification) help me comprehend poetry and other texts?

  19. Essential Questions • Resources to help you: • Handouts from today to explain how to write essential questions • Some can be found on SAS in the curriculum framework • Some textbooks contain essential questions.

  20. Objectives: SWBAT… • SWBAT: Students will be able to: • What needs to be included? • You need to have at least one objective.

  21. Objectives • Examples: • Students will be able to (SWBAT) identify the use of personification in poetry. • SWBAT assign human characteristics to objects.

  22. Objectives • Resources to help you • Flip Book given out last year • Bloom’s Taxonomy • Many textbooks have objectives at the beginning of the chapter • Lessons on SAS have objectives listed.

  23. Materials • What needs to be included? • You should include all materials in your lesson. They can be listed in a bulleted or numbered form.

  24. Materials • Example: • Porches by Valerie Worth • What Did? By Shel Silverstein • Chairs by Valerie Worth • Give a Thing a Personality guidelines • Vocabulary page • SMARTBoard File for personification

  25. Materials • Resources to help you • SAS website (Instruction, Voluntary Model Curriculum) • Books • Supplemental materials

  26. Procedures • What needs to be included? • You need to have a detailed explanation of your procedures for the lesson. • They do not have to be scripted, but you must have enough detail so that someone could follow what you are doing in the lesson. • In order words, you should not be the only person that can understand your lesson plans. • They can also be in bulleted or numbered form.

  27. Procedure • Example: • Define personification as the assignment of human characteristics to things. What smaller word is in the word personification that will help you remember what personification means? • Read aloud the following poem: Chairs by Valerie Worth. • …..

  28. Procedure • Resources to help you: • SAS website (Instruction, Voluntary Model Curriculum, Materials and Resources) • Books • Supplemental materials • Other lesson plans and plan books

  29. Homework • What needs to be included? • Your homework should reflect and extend from your lesson. • You need to have a short explanation of the homework that is assigned.

  30. Homework • Example: • Reinforcement Activity: • Students will pick one object from their home and complete “Give a Thing a Personality” to be used as a writing organizer

  31. Homework • Resources to help you • SAS website (Instruction, Voluntary Model Curriculum, Materials and Resources) • Books • Supplemental Materials.

  32. Assessments • What needs to be included? • This needs to be a short explanation of how you will be assessing your students for this lesson. • You need to differentiate between informal and formal.

  33. Assessments • Example: • Informal: Underline examples of personification on SMARTBoard or individual copies of poem, provide their own examples of personification

  34. Assessments • Resources to help you • SAS website: Assessment creator, Classroom Diagnostic Tool (CDT) • Books • Poetry • Supplemental materials

  36. Reflection/Modification • This is an optional part of the lesson plan. • It is a section in which you can comment on how the lesson went. • You can list any changes you would make for the next time you taught this lesson. • Example: • If SMARTBoard doesn’t work, discuss poems with students as they look at their own copies. • Differentiate in Guided Reading Groups
