“To begin with the end in mind means to start with a clear understanding of your destination. It means to know where you are going so that you better understand where you are now so that the steps you take are always in the right direction.”

Stephen Covey

Today’s Goals

•Revisit major topics from initial meeting•Advance work on unit topics by level and language•Agree on at least 2 units that will be taught at each level (avoid conflicts in terms of vertical articulation)•Select a unit for development (each teacher)•Begin to complete template outline •Determine next steps

Key questions for today

1.How often will student performance be assessed annually in each mode (IPA)?

1.What major topics are covered at each level?

2.What about grammar?

3.What unit are you planning to develop?

Create performance-based assessments

Role-play A: You are traveling with your friend. Come to agreement over the schedule for the day balancing the things that you both really want to see and do. Have a conversation where you:•make suggestions on what to see and do giving reasons for your choices•accept and reject the suggestions made by your friend•organize the agenda for the day deciding what to do first, second, last commenting on how you will move from one activity to another•debate and compromise over the perfect place for lunch or dinner

Role-play B: You are speaking with someone who is an expert on the area of (France) that you will be visiting for a day.  Have a conversation where you:•share what you think you want to see and do giving reasons for your choices and listen to the suggestions that are given•accept and reject the suggestions made by the expert •decide what to do first, second, last and consider how you will move from one activity to another•ask for information on good options for lunch or dinner

Role-play C: You are spending a day with your cousin in (France). Come to agreement over the schedule for the day balancing the things that you both really want to see and do. Have a conversation where you:•make suggestions on what to see and do giving reasons for your choices•accept and reject the suggestions made by your cousin•organize the agenda for the day deciding what to do first, second, last commenting on how you will move from one activity to another•debate and compromise over the perfect place for lunch or dinner

Design a summative interpersonal task that captures all of the communicative goals for the unit. You may want to create the illusion of different tasks, but the goals of each task should be nearly identical.

Testing Day• Use the technology that is available to you, low-

tech options will work• Select random partners on the day of the test,

determine and post the order• Assign work to students, often a presentational

assessment will work well• Create an ondeck area where each pair draws a

situation at random, practices for 2 minutes and prepares to take either part

• Move the ondeck students to a station in front of you. Set a timer for a set amount of time and indicate which partner should start the conversation.

• Call time if necessary. Mark the rubric before asking the next pair to move to the station in front of you.

On-deck AreaStudents:•Select task•Practice both roles

1.

Performance AreaTeacher:•Indicates who starts•Sets timer•Assesses performance

2.Students in class workquietly on assigned task.3.

Savez-vous vraiment comment sont faits vos souliers de marque Nike?

Des milliers d’enfants travaillent en moyenne 12 heures par jour, jusqu’à sept heures par semaine pour fabriquer les souliers que vous portez. L’entreprise Nike promet que ses produits ne sont plus fabriqués par des enfants. Toutefois, le géant a déjà dû payer 1.5 million $ pour régler des poursuites pour des publicités mensongères... L’entreprise est critiquée pour les conditions de travail de ses ouvriers dans des usines sous-traitantes d’un peu partout dans le monde, entre autres le Vietnam……..

Mettez-vous à la place de ces enfants : comment vous sentiriez-vous de savoir que tous les efforts que vous faites ne sont pas récompensés? Travailler en moyenne 12 heures par jour, tous les jours de la semaine... Ne pas pouvoir aller à l’école, jouer avec ses amis, se reposer, etc. Mettez-vous à la place de ces enfants qui travaillent sans cesse pour faire ce que vous désirez.
