A5 going with @modernclassproj again- developing mastery checks along the storyline of the unit for self pacing to ensure they get where they need to go, as well as connecting learning back to phenomenon hook throughout- all done through and at the end

[Scott Rocco, Ed.D. @ScottRRocco]

Q5: How do you know that students know what's they should know at the end of a lesson or unit of study? Any unique or innovative methods that you can share? #satchat

[Sarah Meador @wbtmiddle]

A4 @modernclassproj is great too- student pacing means meeting kids where they are and moving at their own pace for success #satchat

[Sarah Meador @wbtmiddle]

#wholebtainteaching is of course my favorite- so many strategies for increasing engagement throughout the unit https://t.co/8fSggkKWuY #satchat

[Billy Krakower @wkrakower]

Q4: What are some strategies or activities that you can share as it relates to the middle of a lesson or unit of study? #satchat

[Sarah Meador @wbtmiddle]

@BurroughsEDk12 Agree! When it’s at the beginning, we shouldn’t abandon it. Come back at the middle, at the end- apply what you’ve learned, ask questions. Use it to drive learning. #satchat

[Sarah Meador @wbtmiddle]

#satchat #scienceteacher Engagement in science is phenomenon driven. It gives a purpose for all of the learning-kids work to understand and explain the phenomenon.

[Billy Krakower @wkrakower]

Q3: How do you engage learners at the beginning of a lesson or unit of study? #satchat

[Sarah Meador @wbtmiddle]

A2 #satchat focus first on what Ss should know and be able to do at the end. Work backwards, plan for what they will be doing, not just learning-active verbs for each activity.

[Billy Krakower @wkrakower]

Q2: How do you go about preparing for a lesson or unit of study? Are there any tricks or tips you can share? #satchat

[Sarah Meador @wbtmiddle]

A1: scaleable, flexible, easy to implement, impactful, easy to differentiate to the multiple levels in the room

Great day at #RSAC21 today. Thanks to all of the amazing presenters. My favorite so far has been @MCUSDSupe’s session on teacher evals. Wish all of my admins could have heard it!
