Our Curriculum Principles of Early Learning | Best Practice In Autism Intervention | Developmental Language Models | How DIR® Supports the Learning Environment | Student Supports Tell me and I’ll forget. Show me and I may remember. Involve me and I learn. — Benjamin Franklin Soaring Eagle Academy’s curriculum and its development were guided by several principles: Curriculum should be meaningful to each student. Curriculum is constantly evolving and developing through the support of a curriculum development team. Curriculum materials are research-based and connected to the Common Core. Literacy Soaring Eagle Academy’s literacy curriculum encompasses the following areas: phonemic awareness, phonics, decoding, fluency, vocabulary development, comprehension of written material, spelling, grammar, use and mechanics, expressive/creative writing and a concept group that supports the literacy books chosen each month. Math Soaring Eagle’s math curriculum utilizes the ORIGO Stepping Stones Mathematics program. Art
Lisa Nielsen: The Innovative Educator Start Here - Life Over Cs Flipping the Elementary Classroom | Creative Educator How to do an "in-class" flip with young learners As a first grade teacher at a “Lighthouse” school in Baltimore County, I work with young students who each have their own digital learning device. My colleagues and I are also working to create models of digital, personalized, and blended learning for students using these new tools. As I continue to research and study 21st century learning both at school and in my graduate program at Loyola University, I keep hearing about the popular “flipped learning” classroom model. Can you flip an elementary classroom? As I started searching for ideas, I found it very difficult to find flipped lesson examples for elementary students. My main concern with attempting this type of lesson is the fact that my students are only six years old. My solution to this problem was to try an “in-class flip” instead. A huge amount of class time in primary grades is spent modeling an activity and giving directions. The “in-class flip” Reflection Getting Chromebooks?
Using Webb’s Depth of Knowledge to Increase Rigor Calculating Cognitive Depth For classroom teachers, the more important question is one of practice: How do we create rich environments where all students learn at a high level? One useful tool, Norman Webb’s Depth of Knowledge Levels, can help teachers meet that challenge. Depth of Knowledge (DoK) categorizes tasks according to the complexity of thinking required to successfully complete them. Level 1. Recall and Reproduction: Tasks at this level require recall of facts or rote application of simple procedures. Level 2. Level 3. Level 4. Recently, educators have begun applying Webb’s DoK to help them design better instruction. 1. 2. 3. The verb does not define the level. 4. 5. Apply as Needed You may be asking at this point, “Well, what is a reasonable distribution? DOK levels are not sequential. DOK levels are also not developmental. To find the right balance, ask yourself these questions: What kinds of thinking do I want students to do routinely?
Analyzing Student Misconceptions With Proportional Relationships Common core State Standards Math: Math Practice: Mathematical Practice Standards MP1: Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals. They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt. They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution. Download Common Core State Standards (PDF 1.2 MB)
