Reaching Consensus on a Reading Assignment(5:08)
In this powerful video, you will see a small group of 5th graders reaching consensus on some comprehension questions. Notice how they dig through the text to support their answers. They were never instructed to do this, but because of the learning activity "reaching consensus," they automatically skimmed the passage on their own. Two of these students are English language learners.
The last half of the video is an interview with the students on the benefits of this teaching method. You'll love hearing these 5th graders insights.
Due March 20 - Rubric
We will create a rubric for one of the assignments in your Bloom/Gardner Grid. It may a rubric for the lesson plan you just completed. It may be a rubric for any other assignment in your Grid. You may use any rubric generator to create your rubric, although I suggest Rubistar
Your rubric will be posted on your website/blog as well as emailing it to me. Please label it "RubricYourNameSpring1".
Your rubric will be graded using Aunt Olive's Rubric on Rubric
The last assignment is to complete a unit plan. Below is the template and a sample. Your capstone is MANY, MANY, MANY things but it is usually based around a curricular unit. You have already brainstormed over 35 ideas (Bloom/Gardner Grid) and completed a lesson plan as well as an assessment rubric on one curricular area. Let's use all of this information to create the Unit plan. Hopefully, you have or will have additional projects to this unit plan from your other classes. Feel free to include these other projects in your unit plan. This unit plan will be an incredible jump start to your CAPSTONE.
