Rigor & RelevanceEssential Questions...
What will my instructional lessons and assessments look like?How will I link standards with student learning?
Try it Out!Create a Lesson using the 4 Quadrants1. Draw a box with the 4 Quadrants2. Label each quadrant: a, b, c, dAs you watch the video record: • standards• skills• topics you could teach using your curriculum. Try to record something in all 4
quadrants.

Reflection
1. What do you know about the RR Framework that you did not know at the beginning of this session?
2. What do you know about the brain that you did not know at the beginning of this session?
3. How will you transfer this knowledge to your own practice?
