  6. What Is Strategic Teaching All About?

  7. Strategic teaching IS NOT just for reading and language arts classes. • Strategic teaching IS best practices designed to increase student achievement in ALL content classes.

  8. Strategic Teaching IS NOT just for struggling readers. • Strategic Teaching IS for all students regardless of their reading abilities.

  9. Strategic Teaching IS NOT something that you do once a week or on every other Thursday. • Strategic Teaching IS part of every lesson, every day.

  10. Strategic Teaching IS NOT something your principal came up with to torture you. • Strategic Teaching IS based on scientific research about adolescent learning.

  11. BRAIN RESEARCH AN INCREDIBLE JOURNEY

  12. Brain Research Lesson Plan Outcomes: Participants will discover characteristics of the adolescent brain. Participants will make connections between the developing brain and adolescent learning. Before: Anticipation Guide Purposes: activate prior knowledge; establish a purpose for reading; make predictions During: Jot Notes Purposes: organize information; summarize and practice note taking; make connections After: Anticipation Guide Purposes: reflect and correct predictions; integrate new information with prior knowledge

  13. Left-Brain/Right-Brain Partners • Select two partners by signing up with a left-brain and a right-brain partner (make two clock appointments basically). • When directed, meet and discuss a given topic.

  14. Before: Anticipation Guide • Read each statement. • Mark in the left-hand column whether you agree or disagree with the statement. • When directed, locate your left-brain partner and discuss your predictions. • Prepare to share whole group.

  15. During: Jot Notes “Jot” notes (or marginal notes) are based on key points, concepts, or ideas as the text is read. Use single words and/or phrases to keep notes brief and to the point. This may include: • brief notes about the important points in the text; • sketches of images constructed as the text is read; • connections to the text; • questions about the text; and • first reactions to the text.

  16. Brain Research: An Incredible Journey Chunk 1: “We Do”

  17. Examples of Jot Notes • 7 to 10 percent of brain is pruning away • lacks reasoning and judgment • hormones are not completely responsible • acts childishly • physical appearances deceiving Connection: Adolescent students look mature, but act childishly.

  18. Chunk 2: “Y’all Do” • Read the text. • Write jot notes that are short and to the point. • Sketching is encouraged. • Share notes with a partner. • Share notes with the whole group.

  19. Chunk 3: “Y’all Do” • Read Chunk 3 with a partner. • Take jot notes.

  20. Chunk 4: “You Do” • Read text. • Reflect individually. • Take jot notes. • Meet with your right-brain partner and reflect on your jot notes.

  21. After: Anticipation Guide • Reread the statements from the beginning of the lesson. • Mark new responses in the right-hand “After” column. • Justify any corrections made after reading. • Write justifications under the appropriate statements.

  22. Parking Lot Postings Reflect on the learning from Session 1: • Questions • Concerns • Comments The questions, concerns, and comments will be addressed at our next meeting.
