• Unit overview
• Daily lesson objectives
• Wall Charts

We learn:
10% of what we read
20% of what we hear
30% of what we see
50% of what we both see and hear
70% of what we discuss with others
80% of what we experience personally
90% of what we teach to someone else
11

Why Groups?
• 75% of humans learning by talking
• Main reason teachers don’t use groups…
fear of losing control
• Teacher preparation, circulation and
observation required
12
CTE CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Forming Groups
• Cut ups – cards, maps, cartoons, formulas, advertisements
• Popsicles sticks w/ names, shapes, colors, stickers
• Famous pairs – Salt and pepper, Romeo and Juliet
• Genres – books, music, seasonal activities• Line ups – students make two lines and pair with
the student across form them• Clock buddies –make hourly appointments

•Use T-Chart with students to identify what you expect to see and hear
15
CTE CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Getting Started
• Think- Pair- Share….
• Pairs to squares
• Assign roles or actions
• Provide focus questions
• Pre-write before joining the group
• Talking tokens promote equal participation

Talking Tokens
17

Prepare and Circulate
• Have students discuss the instructions for
clarity
• Identify what you expect to see and hear
• Begin with short interactions
• Move around and observe/guide behavior
• Students report out at end

CTE CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Think - Pair- Share - Square
• Take 1 minute to think how you might use grouping in a class
• Talk to an elbow partner about your plans
• Find another pair and share your partner’s idea • Be prepared to report out the most interesting
idea

Process New Learning
• 3 Column Charts
• Graphic Organizers
• Graffiti
• Note-Taking
• Journals

3 Column Chart
What I knew What I now know
What I still don’t know
What I know What I don’t know
What I wish I knew

22
CTE CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Graphic Organizers
• Avoid lengthy note taking
• Organize thinking
• Display relationships (sequence, cause-effect)
• Assist with classification
• Create a mental image that helps the brain “file” the learning
23

Graphic Organizers
24
CTE CAREER AND TECHNICAL EDUCATION
Graffiti
• Used for pre-assessment, prior knowledge or summary
• Write one topic/concept/problem per sheet ( chart paper or legal size)
• Students record ideas, solutions, questions
• Students or paper rotates after allotted time period
25

Note-takingMain Idea Details
Cornell Notes
Can be used to provide an outline of the course, chapter, or lecture.
Organized by main ideas and details.
Can be as detailed as necessary.
Sequential-- take notes as they are given by instructor or text in an orderly fashion.
After class, write a summary of what you learned to clarify and reinforce learning and to assist retention.
Can be used as study tool: Define terms or explain concepts listed on the left side.
Identify the concept or term based on its definition on the right side.
Summary:There are a couple of ways that you can take notes. The Cornell method is best when the information is given in a sequential, orderly fashion and allows for more detail. The semantic web/map method works best for instructors who skip around from topic to topic, and provides a "big picture" when you're previewing materials or getting ready to study for a test.

Journals
• Daily - keeps track of happenings in class from student’s point of view. Teacher creates a template.
• Question – Students record answers to daily, weekly, or unit question(s)
• Response to reading, video, demonstrations or lectures
• 10:2 Theory – Pause every 10 minutes to write for 2 minutes down reactions to readying, lecture or demonstration
Pause now for 10:2

Bloom’s Taxonomy
• Knowledge = Find recall specific ideas and information
• Comprehension = Understand ideas, meanings and information
• Application = Use - apply information, ideas and principles in new situations
• Analysis = Break down information into parts
• Synthesis = Create - put together parts to make a whole and do something new with the information
• Evaluation = Judge - the value of ideas, purposes and methods
