    Text Dependent questions -- 3rd-5th grades for Harcourt Trophies There's also a 6th-8th grade group too. These groups rewrite the questions of the book. -- We can always look at the quality and bump it up if needed. But, much of the work is done as a starting point. Just join on Edmodo using the codes listed on these pages.

    I just joined their group and looked at one example. I think this is definitely something that is worth looking into further and possibly sharing out with teachers.

  • The rigor and approach of the Common Core standards schools are adapting to is requiring teachers to reexamine not just the content they teach but the way they teach.
  • What I like about Common Core is it’s focused just as much on how we teach as what we teach
  • And while teachers are having to step up and incorporate new methods into their classrooms, they’re also having to step back and let students figure out concepts on their own.

  • “I think your teacher will be more of a facilitator,” Pam Best, USD 416 assistant superintendent, said. “I would even hope that they would encourage the students to learn from each other. That’s the movement. That’s where we’re going.”
  • Fouraker is referring to Bloom’s Taxonomy, which describes the depths at which people think. Currently, schools often focus on lower-order thinking, like knowledge, comprehension and application. What flip classrooms allow teachers to do is get into higher-order thinking – anaylsis, synthesis and evaluation – by engaging in interactive projects.

  • A few weeks ago, Mrs. Gross, Mr. Olsen and their students explored how they might pair Times content with basic computer coding to practice Common Core skills. This week they show how the news and the standards can be jumping-off points for exploring video design and gaming. Here are three recent STEM-related articles, related writing prompts, and links to the student projects that resulted–from an undersea-themed game to pop-up analyses of viral videos to interactive biographies of inspiring innovators.
