Will I appreciate how she runs her class? Will I meet her expectations? • I am excited about the next phase – “Let’s go!” • I am nervous. Will I be able to run the ActiveBoard competently?

  7. CANDIDATE PROFICIENCY EVIDENCE:

  8. DOMAIN I:PLANNING FOR DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION & ASSESSMENT Lesson 1 Math: Beginning Fractions Lesson 2 Health: Conflict Resolution Lesson 3 Reading/Language Arts CRCT Review: Quotation Marks in Dialogue

  9. DOMAIN II:PROVIDING DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION & ASSESSMENT Preassessments • Health – Conflict Resolution: KWL chart Tell me what you know and what you want to know about conflict resolution with your friends and family. What can you do when a conflict begins? • Math - Fractions: What do you know about “equal parts of a whole”? • Reading/Language Arts: What do you know about singular and plural possessive nouns?

  10. DOMAIN II:PROVIDING DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION & ASSESSMENT Ongoing assessments • “I’m going to underline part of a sentence. You tell me on your wipe boards if it is the simple or complete subject or the simple or complete predicate.” (ELACC3L1) ** • “Tell me if this example relates to area or perimeter.” How much paper it will take to cover a bulletin board? (MCC.3.MD.7) ** The sniffling student sneezed three times after she came indoors.

  11. DOMAIN II:PROVIDING DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION & ASSESSMENT (cont’d) Post assessments • checklists for Thurgood Marshall project- choice of triorama, song/rap, or one-on-one interview. • K-W-L Chart: Conflict Resolution – What strategies have you Learned to help you resolve conflicts? • Math Unit Tests on Fractions, Area/Perimeter, Measurement (including Time), and Data • Students create book on Heat: Radiation, Conduction, and Convection

  12. DOMAIN II:PROVIDING DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION & ASSESSMENT (cont’d) Differentiated Activities (tiered, flexible grouping, multiple intelligences) – also ongoing assessments • Think-Pair-Share • Small groups creating review questions for Science CRCT • Bloom’s Taxonomy: Questions About Fractions • Interpret quotes from Famous Americans in partners • Partner Walk-n-Talk: Share your ideas. Listen to your partner’s ideas. • Students create Fraction Museum with Unifix cubes: Show me ¼. Show me 7/8. Show me that 2/3 and 6/9 are equivalent. • Heat experiment: Which conducts heat better: metal, wood, or plastic? • iPAD for CRCT review • Singular and Plural Possessive Scavenger Hunt: Is this item belonging to one or more than one? How do I write it? • Simple, Compound, and Complex Folder Game: Can you tell the difference among the three sentences? • Ping Pong Fraction Game: How many equal parts? Maybe thirds? halves? eighths? Or are the parts unequal? • Students create Fraction Strips to understand equivalent fractions • Learn elapsed time with t-chart, time line, and a clock • Role playing for Conflict Resolution • Discovering with magnets: Does a magnet stick to the following items? Make predictions then find out! • Rapping about magnets: Magnets Attract, That’s a Fact! • Text complexity – Nonfiction Differentiated Texts

  13. DOMAIN III: IMPACTING STUDENT LEARNINGAdjusting Instruction for Cause and Effect

  14. DOMAIN III: IMPACTING STUDENT LEARNING

  15. DOMAIN III: IMPACTING STUDENT LEARNINGPost Assessment for Cause and Effect

  16. DOMAIN III: IMPACTING STUDENT LEARNINGAdjusting Instruction • Try teaching students cause and effect a new way. (courtesy of Lynn Satterfield) • Instead of focusing on what happened and why it happened, focus on the first letter in “cause” and the first letter in “effect.” • Just as “c” comes before “e” in the dictionary, the cause comes before the effect in real life. • After that minilesson, 15 out of 16 students scored 90%-100% on quiz. Student who scored 70 % was absent during minilesson.

  17. DOMAIN IV:PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES IN SUPPORT OF DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION & ASSESSMENT Professional Organization Memberships • Student Professional Association of Georgia Educators (SPAGE) member • Kappa Delta Pi International Honor Society in Education member • Alpha Chi National Honor Scholarship Society member

  18. Teaching Philosophy Then & Now The Same, But More Realistic • Classroom management – structured; procedures for everything; keep students’ integrity in tact; firm, but gentle • Differentiation – be ready to scaffold, always challenge students, be ready for fast finishers (anchor activities) • Don’t always tell students, let them discover for themselves (math and science) • Begin with the end in mind, use data to adjust instruction • Still believe that skills should build on each other, content isn’t taught in isolation (integrate), keep reviewing • Worksheets (not always bad) as long as they serve a purpose and are being checked or graded, not just busy work

  19. DOMAIN IV:PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES IN SUPPORT OF DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION & ASSESSMENT Professional Development Activities • Staff Meetings • Close passages • Text complexity • Tier I, II, and III Interventions for students • Extended Planning for Third Grade Team – 4 times • 2 parent/teacher conferences

  20. CONCLUSION: 

  21. Continuing Plan to Develop as a Professional Educator
