  12. Classroom Evidence

  13. Anchor Charts • Anchor charts build a culture of literacy in the classroom, as teachers and students make thinking visible by recording content, strategies, processes, cues, and guidelines during the learning process. • Posting anchor charts keeps relevant and current learning accessible to students to remind them of prior learning and to enable them to make connections as new learning happens. • Students refer to the charts and use them as tools as they answer questions, expand ideas, or contribute to discussions and problem-solving in class.

  14. Maximizing Instructional Time

  15. Instructional Partner • Communicate with colleagues! (Even if email is your only option). • Strategize your instructional planning to align with theirs.

  16. Assessment • Use formative assessment as a way to assess for learning. • Use summative assessment as an assessment of learning.

  17. Long Range Planning Guides • Summary sheets for each grade level. • At a glance view of topics and timelines. Digital Curriculum Platform • With limited time and human resources, we focused on quality of curriculum during summer workshop. • The curriculum will be put in BCPSOne later. • Platform will be Groupsite for now. Lessons and materials are now individual files (not one continuous document per grade level as before)

  18. NOTES • We took input from the 43 LMS who responded to the survey; there were many conflicting viewpoints. • Long range planners created for each grade • Anchor charts for each grade: Posters for two today • All lessons have AASL, CCSS, and Essential Questions • Each lesson has formal/informal assessments • Digital Citizenship units are the first unit at every grade level. *Grades K/1: Unit 2 can be taught first, then Dig. Citizenship. Others do not need to be taught in order. • EVERYTHING has been re-written. Lessons are flexible for LMS to make own instructional decisions, as long as Learning Targets are taught/assessed.

  19. NOTES • Each grade now has an author study • Some grades now have a unit of stand-alone lessons (indicated on long-range planners) • Many ORMS were converted to Slam Dunks • Many Lessons include Wixie; see the Wixie Resource page (and Resource Pages for other digital tools) on the ODL wiki @ bcpsodl.pbworks.com • Flip charts included for both LMS and students; all ES libraries were issued an ActivSlate and should/can have ActivInspire installed on computers/devices used in the Library. • Some links could not me made directly to digital content (e.g. TumbleBooks, must search on title)

  20. Known Issues • Couple of typos on Planner • Couple of Lesson/Resource docs in Groupsite not linking to correct doc (we will fix) • Flipcharts embedded in Slam Dunk: Links not working (Kelly investigating and will fix) • New K-4 and 5-8 Research Guides are not yet live; these are referenced in some research lessons/ORMs. These will replace old Elementary Research & Investigation Guide. • EasyBib is referenced; Kelly will send info about EasyBib School Edition accounts.

  21. Let’s Dig In! Open in Google Chrome or Firefox:librarylessons.groupsite.com *Due to issue with Enable Editing of downloaded Word docs when opened in Internet Explorer • Jigsaw the grades to table teams. • In- depth exploration and choice in presentation tool. • Groups share highlights of their grade level exploration with the whole group. • Last hour and a half: Half hour to create presentation, last hour sharing
