How do the selected tools support your learning goals and the learning principles guiding your design?

a) To enable continuous/frequent feedback between you and the students
Individual Assistance
Questioning
Class Discussion
Throughout direct instruction and student group work
Teacher will ask questions to determine the understanding of students and give feedback during direct instruction, and group work. Questioning will allow the students to demonstrate their understanding of the learning goals and objectives as a class and individually. This requires participation from teacher and students following the dual-centered model.
b) To encourage the students to reflect on their learning progress and achievement Questioning
Summarizing
Observation
Class Discussion
During the lesson, group activity and at the end during class discussion.
Students will be given the opportunity to think about what they've learned and to share it with the class.
c) To determine your students' learning progress and achievement
Observation
Checkpoints
Rubric
During lesson, at the end of each part of the activity, and after lesson completion

Teacher will use her observations during questioning, lesson and class discussion to complete rubric for each group. The rubric addresses the student learning goals & objectives; however, to be supportive of the dual-centered model and include student input it might need to be modified or used as a tool to talk with each group and allow them to evaluate their learning in a simpler way .

Student Goals

1. Estimate the weight and the circumference of an object using non-standard units. (Get actual weight and circumference using non-standards units.)

a. Observe whether estimation is correct. (such as higher or lower compared to observed data)
Cognitive (Comprehension, Analysis, synthesis)

Psychomotor (Executing actions)

Teacher will listen for students use of comparative words during class discussion
Observation
Completion of graph because data was entered correctly.
Was your estimate higher/lower? Bigger/smaller? Longer/shorter? than the actual weight and circumference.

How do you put the cursor in the cell? What do you do when you finish typing in the data in the cell? What happened to the graph when you entered your estimate and actual numbers?

b. Record estimates & observations.
c. Interpret what they've done using comparison words.
2. Enter estimated & observed data in a spreadsheet and create a graph to use during interpretation. a. Enter estimated and observed data.
Cognitive (comprehension, application)

Psychomotor (Executing actions)

Teacher will observe whether students' graphs are complete.
Is any part of your graph empty? Did you fill in your group number?
b. Follow graph directions. (verbal & visual)
