Parli pros Conducting Meetings To Teach State Standards
objectives • Briefly discuss the Parliamentary Procedure & FFA Ceremonies CDEs • Highlight State Standards relating to parliamentary procedure • Explore ways in which parliamentary procedure can assist in TEAM evaluations • Investigate promising practices for incorporating parliamentary procedure into classroom curriculum • Discuss tips for preparing students to compete in the Parliamentary Procedure CDE
Parliamentary procedure • 6 person team • Knowledge exam • Demonstration • 10 minutes to present • Oral questions • One per member • 4 minutes about demonstration • Minutes
FFA Ceremonies • 7 person team – grades 7-9 • Knowledge exam • Demonstration
State standards • Greenhouse Management • Standard 11.0The student will develop premier leadership and personal growth needed in a greenhouse management career. • Learner Expectations: The student will: • 11.1 Discuss how the FFA has changed as agriculture has changed. • 11.2 Develop public speaking skills needed in the greenhouse industry. • 11.3 Conduct meetings use approved parliamentary law. • 11.4 Develop an SAEP, supervised agricultural experience program, for a greenhouse enterprise.
Team strategies • Presenting Instructional Content (5) – modeling by teacher to demonstrate expectations • Activities & Materials (5) – challenging; student-to-student interaction; provide students with choices; incorporate resources beyond school texts; require creating products; demand self monitoring • Questioning (5) – teacher questions are high quality (knowledge & comprehension, application & analysis, creation & evaluation); purposeful; high frequency; provides wait time; students generate questions
Team strategies • Academic Feedback (5) – feedback is academically focused & high quality; given during practice; teacher engages students in giving specific and high-quality feedback to one another • Thinking (5) – analytical thinking; practical thinking; creative thinking – students analyze, use real life examples • Problem Solving (5) – categorization; drawing conclusions/justifying solutions; identifying relevant/irrelevant information; generate ideas
Team strategies – an example • Standard 10.0The student will integrate academic competencies with greenhouse management concepts. • 10.8 Demonstrate how basic biological principles of plants affect growth. • Evidence standard is met: • Recommend plant varieties on the basis of geography and other demographics.
Team strategies – an example • Protocol for parliamentary procedure is in place • Teach lesson about biological principals & plant growth • Write Motion On Board: I move to recommend to the school principal that we plant poinsettias in front of the school for aesthetic appeal. • Identify a chair (teacher or student) / Ask for business to be presented • Chair handles debate (teacher reinforces parliamentary law) • Set expectations/requirements on # of debates before another motion is presented • Chair carries main motion through debate until a decision is made • Teacher and students ask questions using how / why / what / when, etc.
Team strategies – a twist on the example • For literacy • Give a reading assignment • Present motion after reading assignment to help students process what was read • For cooperative groups • Divide class into groups where each group has a chair • Assign different motions related to topic
Promising practices • Elect class officers • Officers change each grading period • Hold a weekly class meeting • Class meeting uses Opening/Closing Ceremonies • Use parliamentary procedure to make class decisions • Assignments • Discipline • Activities
