Module 8-Final Screencast

  • Promotes student agency in 3rd-5th grade
    • This will help as they continue to be more independent
  • More online interaction along with the classroom interaction will give students more opportunities to practice skills with the 4Cs - communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity
  • Students will be able to work with others within the class

How Do These Relate?

  • Provide more personalized instruction - not just differentiated instruction
  • Incorporate online interaction when using technology in the classroom
  • Create more dynamic groupings using data

Goals

  • A one size fits all approach does not work
  • All students are unique and have different stengths and challenges
  • All students are capable of academic achievement
  • every students needs must be met with supports for them to learn, grow, and achieve goals
School Culture
  • I've been using this for the past 4 years without realizing it was a blended learning model
  • Allows for differentiated instruction to meet all needs of students
  • Allows for the use of technology - especially when you don't have enough for each student
  • I can now run this model more effectively with the knowledge from this course
  • Students are constantly mastering goals

Station Rotation Model

  • Access
    • Students miss lessons or activities due to
      • behaviors
      • related services
      • absent
    • Students need to access these materials to participate effectively
    • Can be solved with utilizing technology - students can make this up at a different time
  • Social/Emotional
    • Students need to make good use of their time
    • Life skill
    • Can promote more student agency

Problems of Practice

  • Technology in the classroom is amplifying or transforming the activities
  • Students will complete interactive activities such as playing games, EdPuzzle videos, and collaborating with others through Padlet or FlipGrid
  • Example: Students create a poster using Canva for a research project and share the information through a screencast
  • Encourage the 4Cs through different activities and assessments
  • Example: Students create a "product" and a plan to sell the product for career readiness - students can work in groups
  • This project could cross over to math giving students more time (extend)
  • Extending time - students can complete assignments at home if they were not finished at school
  • This could also be done during times of the day - even if we're not working on that specific content area
  • Through the use of an LMS (Teams)
  • Collaborating or communicating on Padlet and FlipGrid
  • Play games on IXL - when appropriate
  • Interactive lesson on PBS Learning Media
  • More creative activities and allowing students to use a playlist to choose

4Es fRAMEWORK

  • Rows - to maintain safety
  • Specific area in the room for group work (away from independent work)
  • Small group at the front of the room with the Smartboard

Classroom Layout

  1. Online integration- technology used during station rotations (reading and math) and when appropriate for other subjects - Examples: IXL, PBS Learning Media, EdPuzzle
  2. Online interaction- Padlet and FlipGrid for collaboration
  3. Data practices- Utilize IXL data to create different groups for units - students won't stay in a "4th" grade math group
  4. Personalization- Give students more choice in the types of assessments they complete to show what they've learned (may utilize a playlist)

Incorporating

  • Going over expectations/behaviors - especially at the beginning of the year and after breaks
  • 3 before me - new strategy
  • Recorded instructions (if available) and written instructions
  • Use of timers for students to switch stations
  • Use of station rotation slides at the front of the room for students to switch to the appropriate station
  • What to do when finished with an assigned task

Routines

  • What would blended learning look like during social studies or science? This is something I haven't done before.
  • How can I get more teachers involved in blended learning at school?
  • Blended learning allows for more hands-on or authentic learning
  • Groupings can be dynamic - even if students aren't on the same instructional level - this can be based on what they need for a specific skill
  • Blended learning can take various forms
  • Flipped classrooms can be done within the classroom - this meets needs in classrooms that do not have access to technology outside of school
  • Station Rotation Model can look different from classroom to classroom and can still be effective
