As we continue to look at how teachers are taking these daunting tasks and accomplishing amazing things in their classrooms, we will continue to focus on how to make the observing of these teachers meaningful to us as classroom teachers.
The below video is another example of a teacher that has connections with her students that enable a meaningful learning environment.
Video #2
You are going to take detailed notes over her lesson in order to complete your Video Reflection #2 paper and have a discussion with your classmates about what you say in the video. Please be able to answer the below questions.
- What was she doing to engage her students?
- How did her lesson connect to the 3 Class Domains?
- What are you taking away from this lesson that you can utilize in your own classroom?
After viewing the video, we will continue to discuss strategies that will increase student learning and engagement.
Please see the below links to help you plan intentionally for increased engagement and rigor in your lesson planning.
4 Ways to Increase Engagement
Bloom's Taxonomy
Revised Bloom's Taxonomy Wheel
With the Bloom's Taxonomy Wheel you were given, write for 15 minutes about your lesson and where it falls on the wheel. Determine if your lesson is a higher level, how you've scaffolded to ensure your students are successful. Or if your lesson is lower, how will you increase the rigor of your lesson later on in your school year to challenge your students.
Finally, get with a partner and discuss your lesson planning process.
- What steps have you taken to come up with your lesson?
- How will you know if your students have taken away from your lesson what you wanted them to?
- What checking for understanding techniques do you see yourself using most often in your classroom?
Represent visually your learning and understanding of the lesson planning process.
