Often lesson flow is governed by the readiness of the “middle majority” of students to move on. Students who work at a faster pace and catch on quickly are asked to sit quietly and wait. Students who work at a slower pace or struggle in mathematics move on to the next idea without getting to complete all of the related tasks. Unfortunately, many of these students are most in need of completing all of the tasks plus additional tasks to build understanding and confidence. The students who work at a faster pace need additional challenges.
In this seminar, participants will examine a phased approach to lesson progressions that meets the needs of all students without needing to plan separate lessons. In this design, time is available for all students to complete the tasks, build independence in making sense of unfamiliar tasks, develop deeper understandings, and continue to be challenged as the cognitive demand of the tasks increases. Time is also available to the teacher for conducting formative assessments and providing needed support. Participants will have an opportunity to design their own phased approach for a key concept at their grade level.
Learning objectives include:
- Participants will explore strategies for implementing the Phased Lesson Design.
- Participants will explore how to engage students in the learning of mathematics.
This workshop is offered for $50 per participant for those CESA 10 districts participating in Title II (Abbotsford, Altoona, Augusta, Bloomer, Bruce, Cadott, Colby, Cornell, Eleva-Strum, Gilmanton, Granton, Greenwood, Ladysmith, Lake Holcombe, Loyal, Neillsville, New Auburn, Osseo-Fairchild, Owen-Withee, Spencer, and Thorp), $350 per participant for CESA 10 districts not participating in Title II, and $500 per participant for all others.
