  3. YEARLY ITINERARY, PACING, SCA, ELIGIBLE tEKS Unit 1: Gaining Independence, Arc 1: Toward Independence Yearly Itinerary information should be used along with school event calendar information to get an accurate picture of available Instructional time.

  4. Review CRM for Transfer statement, Concept, Enduring Understandings, Essential Questions, Resources, Pacing Create questions to spark interest, to get your students thinking, to help students make connections.

  5. CRM: Arc 1- Pacing, Vocabulary, TEKS Make a list of words or phrases in the TEKS that your students might not understand or be familiar with, etc. When TEKs are repeated, still review them for comprehension. You will be confirming students’ understanding and vocabulary development.

  6. CRM: TEKS, verbs, words, phrases Look at the verbs, phrases, and the content on this slide. Discuss how you will teach the lesson to ensure students’ mastery. Discuss:How will the verbs in the TEKS affect how you will teach the lesson? The student product? The questions you will ask? Discuss:What types of formative assessment will you use to gauge mastery?

  7. TEKS: Look at the TEKS verb, words, phrases… • Do you understand what students need to master? • Do you understand what the TEKS expect the students to learn? • How will you teach/review the TEKs with the students? • How will your lesson reflect the mastery of the TEKS being studied? • Do the students understand what they need to master? • Can students identify the verbs in the TEKS? • How will you connect previously taught TEKs to the new learning? • How will you know when the student has accomplished/demonstrated mastery of the TEKS being studies? • How will the student know she/he has mastered the TEKS? • Note: When introducing new strategies to the students, they may seem very labor intensive. As the students practice the strategies and develop their background knowledge and academic vocabulary, these strategies will be implemented faster. Once you have laid the foundation, the results will be that student will know and understand the TEKS. At the end of your lesson, your students should be able to connect the new learning to the TEKS being taught and see the relationships to prior learning.
