  1. Using Guided Notes, Choral Responding, and Response Cards in My Classroom By Christopher Staniszewski

  2. Opportunity to respond • Learn by doing? Let’s do more! • Less than half of a seven hour school day is spent doing “the real work of learning” • One Study – 45% of the school day students are inactively listening, with less than 1% responding • The strategies about to be discussed are both cost and time effective on teachers

  3. Guided Notes • Some types include fill in the blanks, skeleton notes • Variations are endless • Benefits students with behavioral issues, motor deficiencies, ESL students, developmentally disabled, the struggling reader, etc.

  4. Guided Notes (cont.) • Advantages: • Assist in note-taking strategies (encourages good study habits) • Key concepts are highlighted • Students are more likely to know if they are “getting it,” ask questions if they’re not • Teachers carefully plan, stay on task

  5. Guided Notes in my Classroom Experience in Calculus Class Variety of short/ long responces Faster paced class Students more attentive

  6. Choral Responding • Short, one to three word answers • One correct answer is ideal (useful in math!) • Active engagement • Choral Responding vs. Calling on hands • Provide feedback, thinking pause • Careful not to sound like a cult!

  7. Response Cards Cards with things such as yes/true on one side; no/false on the other. Study: better quiz scores than hand raising Use just a few Greatly reduces off-task and disruptive behaviors
