  1. Framework for Teaching Effective Lesson Planning

  2. GOALS(this session) • To define Big ideas, Essential Questions, Objectives and Aims • To identify resources for components lesson planning • To summarize NYS Standards and CCLS • To provide TIME for writing objectives for your unit of study

  3. Curriculum Is at the Heart of Education All lessons are based on curriculum Daily Lesson Plans It is usually structured in Subdivided into Curriculum Units Theme(s), topics 3

  4. LET’S BEGIN Domain 1: Big Ideas and Essential Questions Domain 2: Planning and Preparation Domain 3: Strategies for Effective Teaching Domain 4: Developing Assessments Aligned with Curriculum and CCLS 4

  5. Before we begin… 5 Take a couple of minutes to write your personal definition of “Big Idea” and “Essential Questions” as it relates to instruction, learning and assessment.

  6. What is the purpose of what I intend to teach? 6 A big idea is a concept, theme, or issue that gives meaning and connection to discrete facts and skills. Curriculum (standards) is the blue print for learning. Our focus should not be specific to a standard or individual lesson, but towards the BIG IDEA!!!!!

  7. Essential Questions • Are Mental Velcro that: • Serve as organizers to target • instruction • • Push students to higher levels of • thinking • • Serve as a connectors across curricular • areas • • Can not be answered “yes” or “no,” nor found in the text

  8. Activity for Big Idea 8 • Choose a partner to work with. • Your job is to classify the following statements as Big Ideas or Skills • Be ready to share your reasoning for your classification. Big Ideas vs. Skills

  9. RESOURCES!!!!! Why re-invent the wheel?????? Resources on big ideas and essential questions!!!! http://www.nj.gov/education/aps/njscp/ http://pdesas.org/module/sas/curriculumframework/ (Mrs. Nunez’s Favorite) http://corestandards.org

  10. OBJECTIVES A description of what the student will know and be able to do at the end of the lesson ( Where Great Teaching Begins: Planning for student thinking and learning by Anne R. Reeves) Provides alignment with district and state goals (Uses CCLS) Use behavioral verbs to describe the expected outcomes (ACTION) Avoid Wording Such As: appreciate, enjoy, understand, love, etc. • Objectives answer two of the four key questions of planning: • What will students learn? • To what degree will they learn? To what depth and breadth? • How will they acquire this learning? • How will they demonstrate this learning? 10

  11. Learning objectives are statements of what you are setting out to teach, although expressed as if the students were going to learn it. Outcomes are statements of what a student will know or be able to do, if she or he has learned everything in the lesson. 11

  12. Verbs to use for Objectives: • List • Identify • Rephrase • Tell • Define • Explain • Draw • Solve, • Describe • Compare • Contrast • Create • Summarize • Diagram • Design • Evaluate • Order • List • Predict • Discover

  13. Characteristics of Effective Objectives: • They are clear & specific • They focus on thinking • Their mastery can be demonstrated • They are measurable • They are aligned with standards • Objectives answer two of the four key questions of planning: • What will students learn? • To what degree will they learn? To what depth and breadth? • How will they acquire this learning? • How will they demonstrate this learning?

  14. Writing Aims & Objectives Instructional Objectives - statements of what the students will know and be able to do at the end of a lesson/unit. Aim - the goal/objective of the lesson, written for students, in the form of a question. Start with Objectives, then think of activities (tasks). (Otherwise, we focus on the activity and may not really know if it is really valuable as a learning objective.) In this session, try to set out All of the Objectives for a Unit you will be teaching. In subsequent sessions, we will focus on setting tasks, differentiation, and assessment for them.

  15. Thank you for Completing the 2nd Session! A teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on a cold iron. Horace Mann • Until the Next Session, when planning try to make sure your lesson plans answer the four key questions: • What will students learn? • To what degree will they learn? To what depth and breadth? • How will they acquire this learning? • How will they demonstrate this learning? AND • Include the following Characteristics for Effective Objectives: • They are clear & specific • They focus on thinking • Their mastery can be demonstrated • They are measurable • They are aligned with standards
