The purpose of the GANAG structure To give students the opportunity to actively use the nine high-yield strategies: (2) Identifying Similarities and Differences (3) Summarizing and Note Taking (4) Reinforcing Effort and Providing Recognition (5) Homework and Practice (6) Nonlinguistic Representations (7) Cooperative Learning (8) Setting Objectives and Providing Feedback (9) Generating and Testing Hypotheses (10) Cues, Questions and Advance Organizers

3. Goal: Select appropriate measurement tools for length, capacity and mass REPEAT after me: “Today we are going to be learning about measurement tools” Self-assess your knowledge of measurement tools 1 2 3 4 (8) Setting Objectives and Providing Feedback

4. APK: tape measure measuring cup thermometerclock Pair share: “What do notice that is the same and different about these objects?” (6) Nonlinguistic Representations (7) Cooperative Learning (2) Identifying Similarities and Differences
