Tuesday, February 22, 2011
Which GLEs are consistently the lowest in MAP scores? matter and energy
What types of activities are hardest to set up and use effectively? stations
What concepts do students have the most difficulty understanding?

Creating a Learning Cycle
Eliminated activities based on --prior teachinglearning targets
Ordered activities based on which would be best for each step in 5E process
Tuesday, February 22, 2011
• Engage: Making a wet cell battery
• Explore: Using motor as a generator
• Explain: How to illustrate an energy transformation
• Elaborate: Lab stations over transformations
• Evaluate: Notebooks, discussion, ticket out
The Learning Cycle:

elaborateDecided to focus on Elaborate--Stations
Most difficult part --to make learning stations productive

Second and Third Meetings
Backwards DesignRefining
PIcture source: http://www.thegreenhead.com/imgs/giant-building-blocks-1.jpgEliminated stations Refined time frameSet up expectations for notebooks/activities Made procedures for doing the lab activities
Decided on what we wanted students to be able to understand and present at the end, then...

Fewer stations--2 of each station
students discuss after each activity and
compare data/notes/drawings

Ticket OutDiscussion Questions
Time FrameAdjustment to Stations

Ticket Out: formative assessment of student learning--where to go next
individual reflection on what they did
Added Discussion Questions:assist students in focusing when sharing
added structure to conversations--heat as byproduct
Time Frame:needed more time for activity part
Needed less time for discussion
Trouble with solar car and lighting
eliminated cars
had students set panels up in series
