Takeaways 12/2/15

This was really helpful for my lesson plans this week.  I really liked the TPRC exercise we did and I can use this with my different agricultural classes early on when evaluating students previous knowledge.  I really liked the is of VSS and having them help with vocabulary.  I believe this will give them some ownership and I can also use that as chance to see which words they actually know.  I also so like the response I have gotten from using the KWL chart in class.  Has given me insight again on their previous knowledge and what they are actually retaining.  The times that I have used the chart seems to have them focus more on the reading when they know that they are filling the KWL chart out.  Really enjoyed this weeks lesson.

  2. Glad you liked it. So. Where's your bio poem? Maybe the article on climate change and the poor could be useful to you?

  3. It is great that we are able to all learn so much from this class and from each other, as well as take away different strategies to use in our own classrooms.
