Classroom expectation: We are going to teach the kids to BE PROACTIVE and read the learning objective when they enter the classroom. Agenda Book: have students write in their own words their target and why it’s important.
KWL: The students complete the KWL chart themselves using sticky notes. Students identify what they already know, what they want to learn from a lesson, and then what they learned by the end of the lesson.
compare characters in a story, historical figures
after reading a book keep a log and have students log if it was easy or hard...
Math: instead of saying “step by step” directions use “1st things 1st”
Remind the students to “Put First things First” when they are entering the classroom When off task say “first things first” or “work then play”
You are identifying the learning targets for the 9 weeks Students are proactively assessing their progress
