  10. Engagethe “Catch” Activity which will focus student’s attention, stimulate their thinking, and access prior knowledge.

  11. EngageSuggested Activities • Demonstration • Reading • Free Write • Analyze a Graphic Organizer • KWL (Know, Want to Know, Learned) • Brainstorming

  12. Engage What the Teacher Does • Creates Interest. • Generates curiosity. • Raises questions. • Elicits responses that uncover what the students know or think about the concept/topic.

  13. EngageWhat the Student Does • Asks questions such as, Why did this happen? What do I already know about this? What have I found out about this? • Shows interest in the topic.

  14. Explorethe “Do” Activity which gives students time to think and investigate/test/make decisions/problem solve, and collect information.

  15. ExploreSuggested Activities • Perform an Investigation • Read Authentic Resources to Collect Information • Solve a Problem • Construct a Model

  16. Explore What the Teacher Does • Encourages the students to work together without direct instruction from the teacher. • Observes and listens to the students as they interact. • Asks probing questions to redirect the students’ investigations when necessary. • Provides time for students to puzzle through problems.

  17. ExploreWhat the Student Does • Thinks freely but within the limits of the activity. • Tests predictions and hypotheses. • Forms new predictions and hypotheses. • Tries alternatives and discusses them with others. • Records observations and ideas. • Suspends judgment.

  18. Explainthe “Lesson” Activity which allows students to analyze their exploration. Student’s understanding is clarified and modified through a reflective activity.

  19. ExplainSuggested Activities • Student Analysis & Explanation • Supporting Ideas with Evidence • Structured Questioning • Reading and Discussion • Teacher Explanation • Thinking Skill Activities: compare, classify, error analysis

  20. Explain What the Teacher Does • Encourages the students to explain concepts and definitions in their own words. • Asks for justification (evidence) and clarification from students. • Formally provides definitions, explanations, and new labels. • Uses students’ previous experiences as basis for explaining concepts.

  21. ExplainWhat the Student Does • Explains possible solutions or answers to others. • Listens officially to others’ explanations. • Questions others’ explanations. • Listens to and tries to comprehend explanations the teacher offers. • Refers to previous activities. • Uses recorded observations in explanations.

  22. Elaboratethe “Enrich” Activity which expands and solidifies student thinking and/or applies it to a real-world situation, and takes learning toward higher-order thinking skills. Good place for differentiated instruction.

  23. ElaborateSuggested Activities • Problem Solving • Decision Making • Experimental Inquiry • Thinking Skill Activities: compare, classify, apply, evaluate, synthesize, publish • Building Creative Projects • Publishing

  24. Elaborate What the Teacher Does • Expects the students to use formal labels, definitions, and explanations provided previously. • Encourages the students to apply or extend the concepts and skills in new situations. • Reminds the students of alternative explanations. • Refers the students to existing data and evidence and asks, What do you already know? Why do you think . . .? • Strategies from Explore apply here also.

  25. ElaborateWhat the Student Does • Applies new labels, definitions, explanations, and skills in new, but similar situations. • Uses previous information to ask questions, propose solutions, make decisions, and design experiments. • Draws reasonable conclusions from evidence. • Records observations and explanations. • Checks for understandings among peers.

  26. Evaluatethe “Check” Activity which allows the teacher to assess student performance and/or understandings of concepts, skills, processes, and applications.

  27. EvaluateSuggested Activities • Any of the Previous Activities • Develop a Scoring Tool or Rubric • Test • Performance Assessment • Produce a Product • Journal Entry • Portfolio

  28. Evaluate What the Teacher Does • Observes the students as they apply new concepts and skills. • Assesses students’ knowledge and/or skills. • Looks for evidence that the students have changed their thinking or behaviors. • Allows students to assess their own learning and group-process skills. • Asks open-ended questions, such as: Why do you think. . .? What evidence do you have? What do you know about x? How would you explain x?

  29. EvaluateWhat the Student Does • Answers open-ended questions by using observations, evidence, and previously accepted explanations. • Demonstrates an understanding or knowledge of the concept or skill. • Evaluates his or her own progress and knowledge. • Asks related questions that would encourage future investigations.

  30. Creating the 5E Lesson • Work in Groups of 2 or 3 • Use the TEKS and SEs found on your Instructional Focus Document • Use the 5E Lesson Design – Directions Worksheet to Create a 5E Lesson • Be Prepared to Share

  31. Time to Share • Who’s First?

  32. Go to tcapps.net • Choose 5E Crossword

  33. Break Time • Vicki Blackwell’s Web Timer

  34. Using WebCCAT with CScope • Building WebCCAT assessments covering CScope units.

  35. The Tools • Instructional Focus Document (“Where We Are Going”) • Objectives, TEKS, SEs (“What Terrain We Are Covering”) • Unit Lessons (“How We Will Get There”) • Unit Assessments (“Judging Our Journey”)

  36. Review Your IFD • What TEKS will you be covering

  37. Create & Review Assessment • Your goal is to create a valid assessment that will evaluate student understanding of the CScope unit you have chosen

  38. Questions & Comments
