    Hello. I guess I am seeing if this works and I also liked this because it is a quick visual to see the growth of our nation. There are other links as well to see. I found a Civil War one which I might use for my research.

  • Ask your students to brainstorm a definition for the word, and jot down their ideas. Ask your students to share their ideas on what exactly an immigrant is.

      moltman on 06 Oct 21
       
      Standard 3- use a student's thinking and experience as a resource in planning instructional activities by encouraging discussion, listening and responding to group interaction, and eliciting oral, written, and other samples or student thinking. Students are asked to use their prior knowledge of what they know about immigration which will help the teacher gauge their level of understanding about the topic.

      Standard 4E - understand a student's learning is influenced by individual experiences, talents, prior learning, as well as language, culture, family, and community values. This is done by having students talk about their personal backgrounds and helps their peers understand from their experiences. Students tend to listen better to their peers and enjoy learning about their classmates.
  • Divide your students into fivegroups. Distribute the “Immigrants: Past and Present” organizer to yourstudents. Assign each group one of the following five immigrants: 1) SeymourRechtzeit from Poland, 2) Li Keng Wong from China, 3) Kauthar from Kenya, 4) Virpal from India, and 5) Quynh from Vietnam. Ask each group to circle theirassigned immigrant on the organizer.

      How will you use primary sources in your classroom?
  • gracejohn2021 on 27 Sep 21
     
    I think that primary sources could be really neat to tie into social studies lessons. For instance, you could use a journal entry recounting an event from someone as a primary source, and then learn about that event and have students write what it would be like if they lived through that event. To tie in culturally relevant pedagogy, I think it would be creative to use a journal entry from someone in history discussing a tradition or important part of their culture, and then students in the class can write their own journal entries about their own culture and an important tradition or aspect of it.

  • Paulo Freire (1921–1997) was a champion of what’s known today as critical pedagogy: the belief that teaching should challenge learners to examine power structures and patterns of inequality within the status quo.
  • Remember that teachers and children are both learners:

  • When you start to notice how one dominant group in society may be imposing a culture or worldview on everyone else, you can begin to resist it.
  • Encourage active enquiry and curiosity-lead participation:
  • Admit that the teacher doesn’t know everything
  • Give choice

  • Think carefully about texts, clips, and other resources you use
  • Introduce the vocabulary of critical literacy

  • Select a meaningful goal or skill the student will need to learn and present it at the level of the student; Provide a simple rationale to help the student understand the relevance of the skill; Give clearly stated task directions (limit the number of steps) and ask the student to repeat or paraphrase the directions to ensure understanding; Break tasks into small steps and demonstrate each step; Provide opportunities for student response and practice at an appropriate pace; Provide immediate feedback and error correction when necessary—feedback should be positive and systematic; and Use verbal praise and encouragement frequently.
  • Use a direct statement telling the student to start (rather than stop) a behavior; Look directly at the student as you give the request, move close, and use a soft, calm voice.; speak clearly, slowly and concisely—do not shout. Limit requests to only two or three at a time and give requests that the student is capable of following; Allow enough time for the student to follow through; and Recognize their effort with verbal praise and encouragement.

  • When speaking, make sure the student can see your face and avoid unnecessary pacing and moving. When speaking, avoid obscuring your lips or face with hands, books, or other materials. Repeat discussion questions and statements made by other students. Write discussion questions/answers on a whiteboard or overhead projector. Speak clearly and at a normal rate. Use visual aids with few words and large images and fonts. Provide written outlines, assignments, instructions, and demonstration summaries and distribute them before the class or other presentation when possible.
  • direct your speaking style and adjust the "pace" of instruction to make information more accessible to a student with a hearing impairment.
  • Some students who are hard of hearing may hear only specific frequencies or sounds within a certain volume range.
  • They may have difficulty following lectures in large halls, particularly if the acoustics cause echoes or if the speaker talks quietly, rapidly, or unclearly. People who have hearing impairments may find it difficult to simultaneously watch demonstrations and follow verbal descriptions, particularly if they are watching a sign language interpreter, a captioning screen, or a speaker's lips. Small group discussions may also be difficult to follow or participate in, particularly if the discussion is fast-paced and unmoderated, since there is often lag time between a speaker's comments and interpretation.
