This document provides guidance for candidates completing the edTPA teaching performance assessment. It emphasizes the importance of careful planning, understanding the rubrics, and representing one's teaching thoughtfully in writing. Candidates are advised to read the entire edTPA handbook and related materials to understand what is required. Time management is crucial. Commentaries should respond fully to prompts, provide specific examples, and demonstrate understanding of how students learn. Proofreading is also emphasized to ensure writing clearly conveys one's thinking.

Consider the phrase: A river cuts through a rock not because of its
power, but its persistence.
So much of our success is based on the ability to put one foot in front
of the other, buckle down and work hard even when we’ve had
setbacks. I am so proud of each of you for your hard work this
term! As we finish out the quarter – we are so close! – discuss your
motivations and plans for FINISHING STRONG.

EEL: What Is EEI?
Just like our students, each teacher is different in strengths and struggles. Finding a lesson plan template that works in all areas can take some time, but once you identify one that helps you plan your day, you'll likely stick with it. The EEI, or Essential Elements of Instruction Model, may just be that tool.
The EEI model focuses on components of teaching which are essential for every lesson. Based on the Madeline Hunter model, the EEI criteria are:
Title - You write the name your lesson here for easy identification along with any other pertinent information.
Materials - This section allows an area to list all necessary supplies that will be used in the lesson, including those for both you and your students.
Curriculum Standards - This is where you will write any standards used for the lesson.
Anticipatory Set - Often called the 'hook', this stage is meant to get students interested in the lesson, connect to prior knowledge, and set the stage for learning.
Objective - In this section, you will list performance and learning objectives your students will achieve. Be sure to use verbs from Bloom's taxonomy or other source. The terms must be measurable and shared with students.
Purpose - This states the reason for the lesson.
Instructional input - Here you will note the activities and methods you will use to teach, including direct instruction, etc.
Modeling - You will demonstrate the skill in this part of the lesson.
Check for Understanding - This focuses on methods you will use to determine if your students are catching on. You will use these strategies throughout the lesson.
Guided Practice - This marks the active learning time completed by your students with your support.
Closure - At the end of lesson, you summarize and share learning while connecting the lesson to future learning.
Extended/Independent Practice - To increase student understanding, here you will list methods of learning students will complete after the lesson, such as homework or projects.

Task Analysis – 100 pts.
Selecting teaching strategies and arranging educational environments
Graduate candidates will create 1 task analysis from the following skill selections: Functional Academic
Skill, Communication Skill, Interpersonal or Self-help Skill, based on measurable IEP Goals. Thus, a
complex skill can be taught by using chaining.
Chaining – is a way to teach a multi-step or complex skill. There are 3 types of chaining: Backward,
forward, and Total Task. (Watch 4 minute video: https://www.relias.com/resource/chaining-and-task-
analysis ). While often used as a component of ABA instruction, chaining can be used to teach individuals
with moderate/profound disabilities a complex skill. A complex skill is a skill that really consists of
several small behaviors that are linked or chained together, to accomplish a terminal goal. An example of
a skill consisting of several discrete behaviors is wiping a table.
Task Analysis – think of this as a basic GPS... Step-by-step directions to completing a skill. A task
analysis is typically created by completing the skill yourself or watching someone else complete the skill.
It’s important not to just write up a task analysis based on your memory. Even simple tasks, like making a
peanut butter and jelly sandwich, can have small important steps that you may inadvertently skip. If you
don’t teach the step, then you really can’t blame the student for not completing the step.
Chaining and task analysis are teaching procedures that help teach complex behaviors or sequences of
behaviors, such as
Academic Tasks
Social Skills
Self-help Skills
Interpersonal Skills
Design a detailed task analysis (TA) that includes at least the following components:
o Is aligned with the learning goal for which graduate candidate creates; making
sure performance is measurable. For those candidates who have their own
classroom, you may use a target student and use goals from his/her IEP.
o Allows for specific feedback from the teacher to the learner
o Measures the degree to which the learning goal has been achieved
o Provides sufficient information upon which to design subsequent, appropriate
instruction
Explain how the TA enables the learner to monitor his/her own learning progress.
Explain how the design of the TA can inform the levels or types of supports and challenge
the learner might need for subsequent instruction.

his week you will be rounding out the 8 weeks by turning in the benchmark assignment. This week you should be teaching a 5 day mini lesson plan. Each day you are to teach a different piece of literacy. You will turn in your lesson plans, your practicum hour logs, and a reflection that is 1500-1750 words.
In the first part of the practicum, spend 3 hours each in three reading classrooms (9 hours total), grades 4-8. It is suggested that these initial observations occur during Topics 2-4. Analyze how instructors use strategies to ensure students’ understanding in the reading and writing components of the reading lessons. Determine how these strategies will influence the second part of the practicum.
Include both mainstream and language minority students.
Two observations must be in different grade levels and one observation must be in a Title 1 school.
Choose a specific grade and concept from the Arizona language arts academic standards.
In the second part of the practicum (between Topics 5 and 6), select one of the classrooms you observed and spend an additional 6 hours designing and teaching a week-long (5 day) unit. For this unit use a single piece of text that is appropriate for the grade level and language arts academic standards. A poem, short story, newspaper article, or content area piece may serve as a single text selection.
Create a mini-lesson (15-30 minutes) to address each of the following areas related to literacy development:
Monday: Oral language and vocabulary
Tuesday: Phonics, word patterns, and word analysis
Wednesday: Fluency
Thursday: Reading Comprehension
Friday: Writing
Each day’s mini-lesson should address an evaluation of learning that is objective and measurable, and directly assesses the students’ achievement of the targeted academic standards. Every lesson should have the following structure at a minimum:
Objective (linked to academic standards)
Materials (include copies of all materials to teach lesson)
Procedure (a step-by-step description of the lesson from beginning to end)
Assessment (a concrete, measurable way to assess the objective)
Each mini-lesson should be a piece of the larger whole, not individual or unconnected lessons. That is, lessons later in the week should build on lessons from earlier in the week, and they should all reinforce and integrate skills from the prior lessons in the weekly sequence.
The remaining 5 hours of the practicum should be used for conferring with your mentor teacher regarding your teaching, management, and engagement strategies, as well as conducting an analysis of student learning. Use your assessment data to formulate a plan to adjust your teaching to meet student needs. Utilize this data and mentor teacher feedback to adjust your unit plan before submitting it to the instructor and to LoudCloud.
Write a 1,500-1,750-word proacticum reflection that includes the following:
A synopsis of your observations in the reading classrooms, and how they influenced your Language A ...
