Planning for Instruction
  • Just as an actor focuses on his script and a
    musician on the score, so must a teacher focus on
    a lesson plan.
  • Teaching Secondary School Mathematics
    Techniques and Enrichment Units
  • Posamentier and Stepelman, 1995, p. 21

12
Planning for Instruction
  • Why have lesson plans?

13
Why have lesson plans?
  • To help teacher organize thoughts and materials
    needed for lesson (learning activity, teaching
    strategy, and assessment instrument).
  • To ensure that teacher actually teaches the
    required curriculum (including standards required
    by law).
  • To assist the teacher to become a more reflective
    decision maker.

14
Why have lesson plans?
  • The quality of the lessons you deliver is the
    essence of teaching.

15
What Great Lesson Plans Look Like
  • The best lessons contain a clear purpose,
    actively engage the students, cater to various
    learning styles, and challenge the students with
    higher level questions.

16
Levels of Planning
  • There are three levels of lesson planning
  • Long-term planning
  • Short-term planning
  • Daily planning

17
Considerations when Planning
  • Subject content
  • Reading in the content area
  • Curriculum mapping
  • Integration of multiple subject areas
  • What do you want students to know when they
    complete the day, semester, or year lesson(s)?

18
Considerations when Planning
  • Science teachers also need to know how to plan
    for
  • Laboratory activities
  • Teaching controversial issues such as evolution
  • Lab safety
  • The use of science-specific graphic organizers.

19
Instructional Strategies
  • How you teach is also an important consideration
    when planning.
  • Teachers tend to teach the way they were taught.
  • Different students learn different topics in
    different ways, so it is important to include a
    mix of teaching techniques in your lesson plans.

20
Instructional Methods
  • How were you taught?
  • How do you think you
  • learn best?
  • What are some other instructional strategies that
    might have been used?

21
Using Different Instructional Methods
  • Direct instruction
  • Cooperative learning groups
  • Inquiry (structured, guided, open)
  • Peer teaching
  • Concept maps / mindmaps
  • Learning centers
  • Problem / community based

22
Inquiry Learning
  • Some of most effective science lessons are based
    on inquiry learning, where the locus of control
    shifts from the teacher to the students.
  • Inquiry lessons lie on a continuum from
    structured to free.

23
Problem-Based Learning (PBL)
  • A real-world problem provides context and
    motivation for students to learn scientific
    content.
  • Learning is shaped by the student (inquiry) while
    the teacher acts as a guide, helping with content
    and metacognitive skills

24
Cooperative Groups
  • Cooperative groups can contribute to better
    comprehension, higher scores and higher
    satisfaction.
  • Group lessons must be well organized to be
    effective.
  • Group work is not simply an excuse for the
    teacher to do something else.

25
Types of Group Work
  • Cooperative learning
  • Peer response
  • Think-pair-share
  • Discussion circles
  • Paired problem solving
  • Reciprocal teaching
  • Jigsaw

26
Choosing Group Members
  • Randomnumbering off, matching pictures, etc
  • Purposefulusing set criteria, i.e., high/low
    achievers, male/female, etc.
  • Studies have shown that diverse groups are
    best. It is also a good idea not to keep the same
    groups repeatedly.

27
Lab roles
28
Assigning Roles
  • Leader / recorder / speaker / materials
    (go-getter)
  • Facilitator / recorder / reporter / data
    processor
  • Other group roles may include tasks such as
    timer, illustrator and so on.

29
Instructional Methods - Review
  • Remember, there is no magic new instructional
    method that will work in every situation.
  • Incorporate a variety of teaching methods into
    your lessons.

Multiple Intelligences
Intelligence Teaching Example
Bodily-Kinesthetic act out the movement of the solar system as a class
Interpersonal work in research teams to solve a problem
Verbal-Linguistic write a story about a cell in your bloodstream
Logical-Mathematical collect and analyze data from an experiment
Naturalistic grow plants in various places in and out of the classroom
Intrapersonal write about which animal you would like to be, how you would live, and why
Spatial draw what you see under a microscope
Musical observe sound waves of sand on a drum
32
Short-Term or Unit Planning
  • Short-term or unit plans
  • Expand on one curriculum topic.
  • Developmentally sequence the topics of the unit.
  • Include content, teaching strategies, and
    assessment instruments.
  • Reflect the Next Generation Sunshine States
    Standards - Big Ideas and Benchmarks.

34
Instructional Planning
  • Developing an Effective Daily Lesson Plan
  • Plan for conceptual understanding.
  • Use discovery, collaborative, and inquiry
    learning.
  • Use authentic assessment that evaluates what you
    taught.

35
Rationale for Using the 5 E Model
  • The 5 Es model is an instructional model based on
    the constructivist approach to learning.
  • The 5 Es allows students and teachers to
  • experience common activities
  • use and build on prior knowledge and experience
  • construct meaning
  • continually assess students conceptual
    understanding

  • Questions to Stimulate Student Thinkingand
    Accountable Talk

38
Questions to Stimulate Student Thinkingand
Accountable Talk
  • To encourage students' reasoning about
    mathematics and science, and to involve them in
    higher-order thinking processes, teachers must be
    adept at posing clarifying and provocative
    questions.

Florida Curriculum Framework, p. 146
39
Questions to Stimulate Student Thinkingand
Accountable Talk
  • Helping students work together to make sense
  • of mathematics or science
  • "What do others think about what Sam said?"
  • "Do you agree? Disagree?"
  • "Does anyone have the same answer but a different
    way to explain it?"
  • "Would you ask the rest of the class that
    question?"
  • "Do you understand what they are saying?"
  • "Can you convince the rest of us that makes
    sense?"

40
Questions to Stimulate Student Thinkingand
Accountable Talk
  • Helping students to rely more on themselves to
    determine whether something is correct
  • "Why do you think that?"
  • "Why is that true?"
  • "How did you reach that conclusion?"
  • "Does that make sense?
  • "Can you make a model to show that?"

41
Questions to Stimulate Student Thinkingand
Accountable Talk
  • Helping students learn to reason
  •  
  • "Does that always work?"
  • "Is that true of a counter example?"
  • "How would you support/demonstrate that?"
  • "What assumptions are you making?"

42
Questions to Stimulate Student Thinkingand
Accountable Talk
  • Helping students learn to conjecture, invent, and
    solve problems
  • "What would happen if...?"
  • "Do you see a pattern?"
  • "What are some possibilities here?"
  • "Can you predict the next one? What about the
    last one?"
  • "How did you approach the problem?"
  • "What decision do you think he should make?"
  • "What is alike and what is different about your
    method of solution and hers?"

43
Questions to Stimulate Student Thinkingand
Accountable Talk
  • Helping students to make connections within the
    content, between content areas, and to the real
    world
  • "How does this relate to...?"
  • "What ideas that we have learned before were
    useful in solving the problem?"
  • "Have we ever solved a problem like this one
    before?"
  • "What uses of mathematics science did you find
    on the news/Internet/television last night?"
  • "Can you give me an example of ... in the real
    world?"

44
  • REMEMBER
  • Questions drive the inquiry process.

45
What Are They Thinking?
  • Whats the difference between a
  • fish and a submarine?
  • One has lettuce and tomato and one has tarter
    sauce!

How Are We Going to Know They Know It? Sample
problem from 8th grade FCAT Sample
Test http//fcat.fldoe.org/fcat2/fcatitem.aspdown
load

Ethan is observing chemical and physical
properties of a substance. He heats up a
substance and observes that the substance turns
from a brown solid to a black powder. He refers
to several chemistry journals that claim this
represents a chemical reaction. From his
observation and research, he concludes that the
substance goes through a chemical change when
heated. How can Ethan best defend his conclusion?
A. by demonstrating that the substance will
eventually melt if the temperature continues to
increase B. by verifying that the substance is
now made up of different molecules than before it
was heated C. by verifying that the substance
is made up of only one type of element D. by
demonstrating that the substance is less dense
after it is heated

  • Just as no performer enjoys playing the same role
    day in and day out, so no student enjoys sitting
    for the same type of lesson every day. It kills
  • initiative and dulls the imagination.
  • Variety is what makes the learning process, as
    well as the teaching aspect of that process, a
    pleasant one.
