Introductory Activity Orientation 2 Teacher’s Name Date of Lesson Introductory Activity Two Truths and a Lie!!! Make sure this slide is completed. Students will NOT view this slide. This slide is for lesson planning purposes only.

From which standard is today’s learning taken? Type the standard in below: Identify the two truths and the lie TODAY’S TASK: Students will experiment with an introductory activity and verify the characteristics of their peers. Students will NOT view this slide. This slide is for lesson planning purposes ONLY. Once you have written the standard, align TODAY’S TASK to the standard. TODAY’S TASK is also written on another slide AND displayed on the board. Color code the standard to match the corresponding part of the task that was designed to match that particular part of the standard. TODAY’S TASK will be the last assignment (ticket-out the door) that students complete. TODAY’S TASK will show you if students are able to demonstrate the standard with fidelity. TODAY’S TASK is written using a verb from two different levels of Bloom’s (analysis, synthesis, and evaluation) Bold and underline the synthesis and evaluation level verbs you use in the task. *In the ANALYSIS level of Bloom’s, students break down objects or ideas into simpler parts and find evidence to support generalizations. The verbs to use in this level are: analyze, appraise, breakdown, calculate, categorize, compare, contrast, criticize, diagram, differentiate, discriminate, distinguish, examine, experiment, identify, illustrate, infer, model, outline, point out, question, relate, select, separate, subdivide, test *In the SYNTHESIS level of Bloom’s, students compile component ideas into a new whole or propose alternative solutions. The verbs to use in this level are: arrange, assemble, categorize, collect, combine, comply, compose, construct, create, design, develop, devise, develop, devise, explain, formulate, generate, plan, prepare, rearrange, reconstruct, relate, reorganize, revise, rewrite, set up, summarize, synthesize, tell, write *In the EVALUATION level of Bloom’s, students make and defend judgments based on internal evidence or external criteria. The verbs to use in this level are: appraise, argue, assess, attach, choose, compare, conclude, contrast, defend, describe, discriminate, estimate, evaluate, explain, judge, justify, interpret, relate, predict, rate, select, summarize, support, value

Bellwork 8 minutes 7 minutes 9 minutes 10 minutes 12 minutes TIME IS UP! 4 minutes 1 minute 2 minutes 3 minutes Pair up with someone you do not know, you are to memorize 5 things about each other. You will introduce the class to your partner without using any help from your partner. This is the 1st slide seen by students. The time does not begin until you click the slide. This slide should be “clicked” when the bell rings ending class (there is enough time allotted for students to have 8 minutes to complete bellwork from when the short bell sounds. Bellwork introduces the lesson or is a warm-up to what students are going to do today. In some cases, bellwork is a review of what happened during the last class period. Write your bellwork in the space provided. If you are giving students a hand-out to complete, make a notation on this slide. When this slide is finished, bellwork should be collected BEFORE you go over the answers. All bellwork must be graded and returned in 24 hours or the grade will not count.

Bellwork Breakdown 3 minutes 4 minutes 5 minutes 2 minutes 1 minute TIME IS UP! What is the purpose of this exercise? Use this time/slide to discuss the correct answers/responses to the bellwork students have just completed. REMEMBER to take up the bellwork BEFORE discussing the bellwork so that you truly know what students know and are able to do.

Connection 5 minutes 4 minutes 3 minutes 2 minutes 1 minute TIME IS UP! Today, you will learn: Students will learn how to introduce themselves through various activities. Why is this important?: It is vital to socialize and collaborate with peers. Today’s Text: Index cards Today’s Task: Students will experiment with an introductory activity and verify the characteristics of their peers. The information on this slide should also be written on the board (this is the white board protocol). After you have gone over the bellwork, and BEFORE you frontload for the day, you should engage students in this connection slide. Today, you will learn: This should be written in student-friendly language and should be no more than 10 words total Why is this important: This should be written in student-friendly language and should have NOTHING to do with EOY testing. Write this statement in no more than 10 words total Today’s Text: Every lesson should be driven by text. What text will you use to drive this work? Today’s Task: Copy TODAY’S TASK from slide 2

Frontloading 2 minutes 1 minute TIME IS UP! Guess Who? This rapper was named after a South American Revolutionary. He coined the term “Thug Life” He also made loving song dedicated to his mom? Introduce the lesson using this slide. How will you hook students and gain their interest? What notes will students be required to take? **students should NEVER be allowed to sit idly while the teacher talks – if it’s important enough for the teacher to write, it’s important enough for the student to write. Remember that notes (and how students take them, where they keep them, and how they use them again) must be intentional Use as many of the frontloading slides as necessary (delete what you don’t need), but do not use more than 8 minutes. Additional facilitating will happen in small groups. Frontloading can happen in any of the following ways: Activate prior knowledge Model thought process I do, we do, you do Use verbal cues Motivational context to pique student interest/curiosity Display historical timeline to offer a context for learning Model activity students will be asked to complete Break complex tasks into easier steps Offer hints/partial solutions to problems Teach students chants/mnemonic devices to ease memorization of key facts/procedures Guiding students to make a prediction about what expect to occur Allow students to contribute their own experiences that relate to the subject/content being discussed Frontloading presents an opportunity for you to question students. Use question stems from each level of Bloom’s to assist you with creating questions.

Tier #2 8 minutes Students will distinguish two truths and a lie then identify the student Today’s Task 15 minutes TODAY’S TASK: Students will experiment with an introductory activity and verify the characteristics of their peers. Tier Who will begin with this task? Assignment Today’s Task 12 minutes Next Steps (until the bell sounds) Decide which students will begin in which tier. True differentiation does not require all students to complete all assignments. The “TIER 1” assignment should utilize verbs from the KNOWLEDGE level of Bloom’s. *In the KNOWLEDGE level of Bloom’s, students remember/recall previously learned information. The verbs to use in this level are: arrange, define, describe, duplicate, identify, label, list, match, memorize, name, order, outline, recognize, relate, recall, repeat, reproduce, select, state The “TIER 2” assignment should utilize verbs from the COMPREHENSION and APPLICATION levels of Bloom’s. *In the COMPREHENSION level of Bloom’s, students demonstrate an understanding of the facts.
