Remember!Remember! The Georgia Performance Standards provide year-
long learning goals. Units of study typically involve multiple standards
and elements, and many standards and elements will be addressed throughout a grade or course.
Units of study often take weeks to complete, and during that time students should demonstrate growing levels of competence.
15
Select standards from among those students need to know
Design an assessment through which students will have an opportunity to demonstrate those things
Decide what learning opportunities students will need to learn those things and plan appropriate instruction to assure that each student has adequate opportunities to learn
Use data from assessment to give feedback, reteach or move to next level
Select a topic from the curriculum

Students work independently, sometimes at their own rate on self-selected assignments or topics.
The teacher establishes the learning situation or task, but the students determine the direction and/or solution.
Students work with other students and/or the teacher to move toward the learning goals.

What do the survey results suggest? What patterns do you notice? Does your classroom practice reflect a balance of
instructional strategy types? Are you using one type of strategy more than
others? Are there types of strategies that you use less
frequently or not at all? Which types of instructional strategies might you
add or use more frequently? Which types of instructional strategies might you
use less frequently? How might you modify your classroom practice?

Strategies such as direct instruction, graphic organizers, structured overview, etc., can convey facts or information tostudents.
Experiential strategies may be structured to allow students to arrive, inductively or deductively, at rules or principles.
Strategies such as assigned questions, learning activity packages or centers, reports, or research projects allow students to obtain facts, etc.
Strategies such as concept attainment or concept formation, reading for meaning, reciprocal teaching,and inquiry allow students to arrive at rules or principles.
Strategies such as discussion, interviewing, or tutorial groups can provide students with information or help them to review rules, etc.

Essays, learning activity packages or centers, or research projects, etc., can provide opportunities for application or practice.
Instructional strategies that involve problem solving often provide the opportunity to acquire skills or practice processes.

Unit Title __Marching to the Beat of a Different Drummer__ Grade Level(s): 7th Subject/Topic Areas: _conformity, human connections, personal choice ____________Key Words: ___________________________________________________________Designed by: ___ML___________________________ Time Frame: __4 weeks___School District: ___________________________ School: _____________________
Brief Summary of Unit (including curricular context and unit goals):In this unit, students will read Lois Lowry's Newberry Award-winning novel, The Giver. They will consider conformity issues in government and communities and their impact on personal growth and stability. Students will also explore some of Lowry's themes, including the need for society to have rules and laws. Students will write in journals and work in small and large groups as they address these issues. Throughout the unit, students are asked to reflect, connect, and revisit issues presented in the book and to provide evidence of their understanding of these issues. An extension activity is planned that will have students reading a speech made by Lois Lowry shortly after the September 11 th attacks and relating the message in the speech to The Giver. At the end of the unit, students will evaluate all products they have produced during the unit and implement a self-designed plan to publish one selection.

Examining Student Work: What is it?Examining Student Work: What is it?
Involves a group of educators committed to improving their practice and improving curriculum, instruction, assessment, and the learning environment for students.
Requires bringing real student work to the group to be examined.
Uses a formal process for examining that work.
Requires follow-up after student work is examined so that the resulting knowledge is not lost.
47
Examining Student Work: Why do it?Examining Student Work: Why do it?
1. To improve teaching and student learning
2. To ensure learning activities and strategies align with standards

4. To encourage appropriate rigor in learning activities
5. To inform instructional decision-making
6. To help identify trends

Three Sample ProtocolsThree Sample ProtocolsThe Tuning
Protocol Emphasizes
evaluative feedback from participants.
Helps participants “fine tune” their
instruction. Participants and
presenters take turns talking and listening to each other, trying to answer the questions the presenter of the student work is asking.
Standards in Practice (SIP)
A process that works to ensure that student work is aligned with the standards.
Looks at teacher work through the lens of classroom assignments and how well students perform on assignments.
The purpose is to increase the rigor of teachers’ assignments by aligning them with standards so that student achievement rises to meet the standards.
Collaborative Assessment of
Student Learning (CASL)
Helps teachers identify and evaluate learning strategies for students
Focuses on accomplishing a particular learning target linked to a specific standard

Essential Question 6Essential Question 6 How can we use teacher commentary to increase
student learning?
56
What is teacher commentary?What is teacher commentary?
Feedback to students Lets them know how the student’s “evidence”
matches up against the expectations expressed in the standards.
May be oral or in writing, and both are suggested.
Formative in nature Tells the student how to improve Assumes that s/he will have opportunities to do
so!
57
What is the purpose of What is the purpose of teacher commentary?teacher commentary?
To correct knowledge gaps or skill deficits To provide feedback that is specific and helpful to
the student To encourage the student to continue trying To guide learning by letting the students know
where s/he needs to focus To keep a written record of student progress
58
How often should one provide teacher How often should one provide teacher commentary on student work?commentary on student work?
Often enough to document progress throughout a unit.
Often enough so that students can make adjustments and learn and then demonstrate new learning.
Often enough so that students can see patterns in their work and in the commentary their work elicits.
59
What are guidelines for providing What are guidelines for providing good teacher commentary?good teacher commentary?
Review the standards and elements so that you have expectations clearly in your mind, and so that you can refer to them (in terms students understand) in your commentary.
Center your comments around the standards and elements. If the teacher commentary is in writing, think of it as a “written conference.”
Be very specific; this helps students know exactly what they are doing right and/or wrong.
60
Practice Teacher CommentaryPractice Teacher Commentary Use a piece of student work from the
previous activity. Write teacher commentary for the work
selected (individually). Share your commentary with a partner. Partners offer “commentary on the
commentary.”
