Your Performance Evaluation
A. Curriculum and Planning – The teacher makes decisions about planning that demonstrate a deep understanding of grade level content knowledge, pedagogy, and GPS or State-approved curriculum implementation by appropriately planning for what students are expected to know, understand, and be able to do
Stages of Backwards Design
1. Identify desired results
2. Determine acceptable evidence
3. Plan learning experiences
& instruction
Establishing Priorities
Worth being familiar with
Important to know and do
“Enduring” understanding
Knowledge that is worth being familiar with
Knowledge and skills that are important to know and do
Understandings that are enduring – What do you want you students to remember in 10 years?
Six Facets of Understanding
•Explain - provide thorough,
supported, and justifiable accounts of phenomena, facts and data
•Interpret - tell meaningful stories;
offer apt translations; provide a revealing historical or personal dimension to ideas and events; make it personal or accessible through images, anecdotes, analogies, and models.
•Apply - effectively use and adapt
what is known in diverse contexts.
•Perspective - can see and
hear points of view through critical eyes and ears; see the big picture.
•Empathize - find value in what
others might find odd, alien, or implausible; perceive sensitively on the basis of prior direct experience.
•Self-Knowledge - perceive
the personal style, prejudices, projections, and habits of mind that both shape and impede our own understanding; having an awareness of what one does not understand and why understanding is so hard

SCSh6. Students will communicate scientific investigations and information
clearly.
a. Write clear, coherent laboratory reports related to scientific investigations.
b. Write clear, coherent accounts of current scientific issues, including possible alternative interpretations of the data.
c. Use data as evidence to support scientific arguments and claims in written or oral presentations.
d. Participate in group discussions of scientific investigation and current scientific issues.
Brainstorm with the Three Stages
1. Identify desired results
2. Determine acceptable evidence
3. Plan learning experiences

Instructional Strategies

Strategies1. Identifying similarities and differences
2. Summarizing and note taking
3. Reinforcing effort and providing recognition
4. Homework and practice
5. Nonlinguistic representations
6. Cooperative learning
7. Setting objectives and providing feedback
8. Generating and testing hypotheses
9. Cues, questions, and advance organizers
Similarities & DifferencesCOMPARING: Identifying similarities & differences
between or among things or ideas.
CLASSIFYING: Grouping things that are alike into categories based on their characteristics.
CREATING ANALOGIES: Identifying relationships between pairs of concepts
(Relationships between relationships)
CREATING METAPHORS: Identifying a general pattern in a specific topic then finding another topic
that is different, but has the same general pattern.
Summarizing
• To effectively summarize, students must delete some information, substitute some information and keep some information.
• To effectively delete, substitute, and keep information, students must analyze the information at a fairly deep level.
• Being aware of the explicit structure of information is an aid to summarizing information.
