2 questions you have
1 connection you have made
Five Essential Elements PlanOutcome-Participants will understand the Essential
Elements that increase student achievement.
Before: Quick WritePurposes: set a purpose for reading, activate prior
knowledgeDuring: Talk to the Text & Say Something Purposes: engage with the text, self-monitor
comprehension, integrate new information with prior knowledge
After: 3-2-1Purposes: reflect on the content of the lesson, respond to

• Strategic teaching IS NOT just for reading and language arts classes.
• Strategic teaching IS best practices designed to increase student achievement in ALL content classes.
• Strategic Teaching IS NOT just for struggling readers.
• Strategic Teaching IS for all students regardless of their reading abilities.
• Strategic Teaching IS NOT something that you do once a week or on every other Thursday.
• Strategic Teaching IS part of every lesson, every day.
• Strategic Teaching IS NOT something your principal came up with to torture you.
• Strategic Teaching IS based on scientific research about adolescent learning.
Brain Research AgendaOutcomes: Participants will discover
characteristics of the adolescent brain. Participants will make connections
between the developing brain and adolescent learning.
Before: Anticipation GuideDuring: Jot NotesAfter: Anticipation Guide
Left-Brain/Right-Brain Partners
• Select two partners sitting at different tables.
• When prompted, sign up with a left-brain and a right-brain partner. Remember to also write your name on the same side of the brain as your partners.
• When directed, meet and discuss a given topic.
Before: Anticipation Guide
• Read each statement.• Mark in the left-hand column
whether you agree or disagree with the statement.
• When directed, locate your left-brain partner and discuss your predictions.
• Prepare to share whole group.
During: Jot Notes
“Jot” notes are based on key points, concepts, or ideas as the text is read.
Use single words and/or phrases to keep notes brief and to the point.
This may include:• brief notes about the important points in the text;• sketches of images constructed as the text is
read;• connections to the text; • questions about the text; and• first reactions to the text.
Examples of Jot Notes
• 7 to 10 percent of brain is pruning away• lacks reasoning and judgment• hormones are not completely responsible• acts childishly• physical appearances deceiving
Connection: Adolescent students look mature, but act
childishly.
Chunk 2: “Y’all Do”
• Read the text. • Write jot notes that are short
and to the point.• Sketching is encouraged.• Share notes with a partner.• Share notes with the whole
group.
Chunk 4: “You Do”
• Read text.• Reflect individually.• Take jot notes.• Meet with your right-brain
partner and reflect on your jot notes.
After: Anticipation Guide
• Reread the statements from the beginning of the lesson.
• Mark new responses in the right-hand “After” column.
• Justify any corrections made after reading.
• Write justifications under the appropriate statements.

1. Read each statement.2.In the left-hand column mark
whether you agree or disagree with the statement.
3.Discuss your predictions with a partner.
During: Jot Notes
• Read each chunk when directed. Jot down the important information on your paper. These are your notes, so make them brief and to the point; use single words or short phrases.
• Just write enough for you to remember what it means.
• Include a real-life connection or a sketch to help you remember the information if possible.
“I Do”: Who was Pythagoras?
Pythagoras was a Greek mathematician and philosopher. He is credited with discovering the relationship between the lengths of sides of a right triangle.
He found that the relationships had to do with the squares of those lengths:
In any right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.
“I Do”: Jot Notes
Pythagoras-- • Greek mathematician & philosopher;
and• Credited with finding the relationship
between the side lengths of a right triangle.
Connection: Sounds like Greek to me!
“We Do”: Jot Notes
Read the information from the first chunk of text and the Key Concept box (p. 485).
Remember when taking jot notes, the types of information recorded may include:
• brief notes about the important points in the text,• sketches of the images that are constructed,• connections made to the text,• questions about the text, and/or• first reactions to the text.

• 2 sides that form the right angle
hypotenuse: the side directly across from the right angle;
• represented by the variable c;
• the longest side.

“Y’all Do”: Jot Notes
Read the information from the second chunk of text (p. 487) and take Jot Notes with your partner.
Remember that when taking jot notes, the types
of information may include:• brief notes about the important points in the
text,• sketches of the images that are constructed,• connections to the text,• questions about the text, and/or• first reactions to the text.
Teacher Jot Notes: p. 487Pythagorean Theorem: If a triangle is a right triangle, then c²= a² +
b².
Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem: If c²= a² + b², then a triangle is a right triangle. To determine if a triangle is a right triangle when given the 3
side lengths, use the Converse of the Pythagorean Theorem.
“I Do” Example 1 You are planning to purchase a new
digital flat screen television. The TV has a length of 40 inches with a height of 30 inches. What size is the flat screen?
Hint: The size of a television is given by the length of the diagonal of its screen.
The television’s diagonal is the hypotenuse, c, so the legs are 30” and 40”.
Since a² + b² = c², then 30² + 40² = c²
(30•30) + (40•40) = c²
900 + 1600 = c²
2500 = c²
√2500 = √c²
50 = cThe television has a 50 inch diagonal, so
it’s a 50 inch flat screen television.
“I Do” Example 2
The mobile phone company is anchoring wires to the top of a 1200 ft high communication tower. The cable for the support wire is 1300 ft long, and the company requires you to use the entire cable. How far from the base of the cell phone tower will it need to be anchored?
The cable length is the hypotenuse, 1300 ft., so the legs are 1200 feet and b feet.
I know that the formula is:
a² + b² = c² 1200² + b² = 1300² (1200•1200) + b² = (1300•1300) 1,440,000 + b² = 1,690,000 b² = 1,690,000 –
1,440,000 b² = 250,000 √ b² = √250,000 b = 500The cable should be attached 500 ft
from the base of the tower.
“We Do”: Example 3
Solve for the unknown side in the right triangle to the nearest tenth:
a = 15 units; b = ? units; c = 25 units.
“We Do” 3: a = 15, b = ?, c=25
Begin with the formula: a² + b² = c² 15² + b² = 25² (15•15) + b² = (25•25) 225 + b² = 625 225 – 225 + b² = 625 – 225 b² = 400 √ b² = √400 b = 20 units
“We Do”: Example 4 In a baseball diamond the distance
between each of the three bases and home plate is 90 feet and all form right angles. How far does the second baseman have to throw the ball in order to get the runner out before he slides into the home plate?
Hint: Sketch it out. Then use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem.
“We Do” 4: Baseball Problem
Formula: a² + b² = c²The distance from 2nd base to home plate
is the hypotenuse, c. So: 90² + 90² = c² (90•90) + (90•90) = c² 8100 + 8100 = c² 16,200 = c² √16,200 = √c² 127.279 = c (127.3 to the nearest
tenth)The second baseman has to throw the ball
about 127.3 feet to get it to home plate.
“Y’all Do”
Solve the following six problems with your partner on the back of the Jot

John
When he opened his eyes again, the first thing he noticed was the clock on the chair.
It was an hour later and nearly time for his class.
John
He picked up his two books and put them in his rucksack.
He started pedaling to campus as fast as he could.
He ran out of gas, so he hitched a ride.
John
By the time he arrived at class, the test was over.
When John explained his tardiness to Dr. Syljuberget, the professor remarked invectively that the excuse was rather egregious.

Putting Theory into Practice
The lesson framework for strategic teaching includes:
One Outcome Two Instructional Practices Three Parts of the Lesson Four Steps to Explicit Instruction Five Components of Active Literacy
Applying Strategies
• A variety of strategies can be used to support this lesson framework.
• Strategies should be purposefully chosen to incorporate literacy skills into the content areas.
• The semantic feature analysis is a tool used to show the connections between literacy strategies and literacy skills.
