Class Structure Continuum K-5 Middle/High School COLLEGE Shimojyo-Shimojyo, 2010
TIME is KEY • THERE IS NO TIME TO WASTE • STUDENTS SHOULD BE WORKING AT ALL TIMES …working at all times….
The Unit Plan • Based on the Standard Strands (Big Idea) • Use Blue Prints to decide order and length (scope and sequence) • Standards become Lessons within Unit • Goal/objective – strive to link standards to each other and to Unit • District Pacing Guides – need to be considered
Lesson Planning Progression • The higher the level of understanding and maturity, the longer the amount of Input with less feedback • The lower the level of understanding and maturity, the shorter the amount of Input with lots of feedback
Beginning * Middle * End • Year - Set up week, Content, CST • Semester - Set up week, Content, Final • Unit - Big idea, Content, Exam • Lesson - ECQ’s, Content, Quizzes, learning logs, ECQ reflection • Day – DSJ, Content, DSR
The Daily Plan – students work the entire time • Beginning • Daily Science Journal – 5 to 8 minutes • Students begin working right away to begin to think right away • Middle • Input • Cooperative Learning • End • Daily Science Reflection – 3 minutes to 5 minutes • Students are asked to think about what they learned or reviewed or will learn tomorrow
Make Notebook useful! • Use with DSJ/DSR • Use for homework and reference • Use with assessment • Use for output (cooperative learning or homework) • Use for review/study • Use for CST review • Use for open house/back to school night • Use for communication with parent • Use with parent meeting • Use to figure out make-up work • Use for reflection and growth • Use for samples – meetings, discussions with peers • Use when new student walks in through your door • Use for planning for the following year
TIME is KEY • THERE IS NO TIME TO WASTE • STUDENTS SHOULD BE WORKING AT ALL TIMES …working at all times….
Your turn…. • Tomorrow you will • Plan 1 unit • Plan 1 lesson • Plan 1 day • Bring Textbook that you want to use to see content that you want to work with… Thank you
