    This article talks about the characteristics of pbl, the reasons to use pbl, examples of pbl, and more. It serves a a great framework on how to get started.

    I like the idea pf project-based learning. I feel that projects help to reinforce student learning. As a science teacher, this is especially true. I can only image that year around project-based learning would require a great deal of district and campus support to be successful. Nevertheless, I would like to learn more.

    I just took on the position of a 7th/8th grade math lab teacher and the person before me spent a lot of time using packets to teach the students material. I very quickly realized that this method only left the material in the students' mind for a day or two. So for the past week i've been trying to figure out exactly how to use methods of instruction like project-based learning. PLB is an amazing method that more teachers should be aware of, the only issue is that there seems to be a lot of planning up front for this to be a success. I've decided though, that if all that time of planning up front would help my students to KNOW mathematics, then it's worth it.

    Reading the article and being a 7th grade math teacher I have realized that their are alot of teaching stratgies that could work if we had more time to actually focus on mastery and understanding. Alot of teachers are placed on calenders on what has to be taught. With the Texas curriculum being so data driven it has become hard for us to really use those fun teaching stratigies.

    I just love interactive notebooks period! I think they are good for all subject areas. It is a way of keeping the students responsible for their learning and also is a good study tool.

    It has definitely made a big difference with my students. I am excited to do more research about schools that have implimented the use of interactive notebook campus wide.

    I was interested to read this article about interactive notebooks. We do science notebooking in our school. I try to modify it to a lifeskills level. I like the idea of vocabulary briefcase. I also like the comment about teachers should only write in blue or black ink. I think that it is important that the students doesn't think it is being "graded" that way they aren't afraid to share ideas.

    My school is a large advocate of interactive notebooks. I like them alot for math it makes students have to show ownership for their notes. From this article I enjoyed reading about the vocabulary brief case. I think I will try to modify that idea for math. :)

      This is in Huntsville, TX-That's cool! Very interesting.

  • Vertical teams get ideas flowing across grade levels and provide learning opportunities for all teachers, explained Beth Burt, the school's principal. "The concept of vertical teaming has opened communication between grade levels," she told Education World. "That, in turn, has improved student achievement."

  • "It was formed to provide a forum for discussing specific curriculum issues and looking at student work across the grades. It has been very helpful to examine the grade levels at which certain skills are taught and how much re-teaching occurs."

    This article talks about different ways teaming brings about success. Near the bottom of the article the use of vertical alignment teams are discussed. Good read!

    Why not? The sky is the limit. We are only prevented to succeeding where we think there are no possibilities! This is really neat.

    Wow! I did my Method's at this school and I thought it was phenomenal then, I can only imagine now. This may be an article that I take back into my school because we have a group of 4th graders who are missing skills. It is hard to get the students prepared for the 5th grade level when they are missing 2nd and 3rd grade skills. Today I was talking to a teacher about what the students are being taught in the 3rd grade and she did not know. I think that if the teachers are communicating with the other grade level they are more aware of what to expect the next school year. This may also promote colloboration with other grade levels so that many skills are not missing. I am sure this will benefit all teachers and make learning more effective. It is all about team work!

    I really enjoyed this article and definitely agree that students benefit from a private school education. I taught private Kindergarten for two years. The curriculum I taught was on a 1st and 2nd grade level and with the small student-teacher ratio (I had 10 kids max), I was able to work with students one on one and focus on each students weakness area to improve it. Also, at the end of the year, the students had benchmark tests they took and scored well above the percentile compared to other students their same age in the areas of math, reading, social awareness, etc. If financially feasible, I think students especially younger ones greatly benefit from private school. Great selection of article.
