Spectacles - This method is best explained by examples. Suppose a teacher of accountancy wanted to teach students about building society accounts, bank accounts, shares, and other ways of saving money. She asks her students to study materials on these accounts in order to complete an evaluation matrix. If the evaluation criteria are well chosen the students must study and understand the different methods of saving very well in order to make their judgements. The judgements the students make show the teacher whether the learner has understood the method of saving. Groups can compare their judgements by placing them on a class grid provided on a flip-chart, board, or OHT. They enjoy this, and the controversy this creates can help clarify misunderstandings. Students could then be given a scenario, and asked to make a judgement as to the most appropriate method(s) of saving for a particular person. Like the other methods described in this document the aim is to get students to learn content (in this case, methods of saving) without direct explanation from the teacher. However, using this method, students will also develop their evaluation skills. Other examples include: •Learning about childhood diseases by evaluating them against criteria like 'method of immunisation' 'ease of immunisation' 'likelihood of permanent effects' etc. •Learning about computer printers by evaluating them as three star two star one star or no star against criteria like cost, speed, etc. This ...

First Grade Writers: Units of Study to Help Children Plan, Organize, and Structure their Ideas Overviews Grade 1
Foreword by Katie Wood Ray
First graders have no shortage of ideas. The hard part for them is putting thoughts together into a cohesive draft. Organizing and planning for writing defy simple description and aren't easily modeled for students, making them challenging topics to convey to young children. Where do you find the language and tactics to teach these subtle processes? With First Grade Writers, Stephanie Parsons will change how you think about teaching the thinking behind writing. Parsons outlines five specific units of study for your writing workshop that help students prepare thoughtfully to write. Beginning with a September unit specially designed to introduce the writing workshop to first graders and build a classroom community that supports risk taking and learning, each successive unit builds upon the previous one and fosters independence. By June your students will know how to plan for writing out loud and on paper, leading to elegant, well-structured pieces. The units also help children to differentiate the planning and organization needed to write:
If you're new to first grade, Stephanie Parsons will give you ideas for top-notch teaching that will be invaluable as you establish your first writing workshop. If you're a veteran, the units in First Grade Writers will augment your existing workshop and help your students clearly conceptualize what high-quality writing looks like. Either way, you'll help them write better by thinking about the thinking behind good writing. |
