http://axisofreflection.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Reflections on math, special education, and what is happening in my classroom. Sunday, August 31, 2014. This week in my middle school science class I gave my students a short article on scientific method and asked them to complete three tasks. The article was one page, highly structured and scores about grade 6.5 using the Flesch-Kincaid grade level formula. 1 Read the article. 3 Answer 8 questions. Students were give 70 minutes of class time split across two days. Results (out of 7 students). 1 student ...

Connecting Research and Practice in Education. Author Archives: Nicora Placa. Why I love lesson study. I love lesson study. I recently finished another cycle and I was thinking back to when I first learned about it. I remember talking with Sadie. About my frustration of doing workshops and having some teachers say, “That sounds great and all, but I can’t do that with my kids.” Sadie pushed me to use lesson study as a way to help teachers see what their kids CAN do. I also love it because it’s collaborati...

Axis Of Reflection: Beginnings
http://axisofreflection.blogspot.com/2014/08/beginnings.html
Reflections on math, special education, and what is happening in my classroom. Sunday, August 10, 2014. I'm trying to nail down my plan for the year, so I thought sharing it here might iron out some wrinkles. So what does this year look like? To help structure our investigation. I need to become more familiar with the. Next Generation Science Standards. With the goal of helping them access more complex literature and novels as the year progresses. For writing I'll be using Co:Writer as an assistive t...

Prezis for Day 2. September 4, 2015. One of my many faults as a teacher is that I forget to give students the roadmap to where we are going. I am good at connecting what we are doing now to what we learned before and building on prior knowledge and I completely have a roadmap in my head- I just need to share it with them. For my Numeracy course. And I love how this Prezi template looks like her You Cubed logo! For my AP Statistics course. September 4, 2015. I was on a massive road trip this summer and si...

People are getting really excited about solving problems. Now this isn’t really a surprise when I’m talking about workshops with math teachers. I would hope they would be excited to do some math. It seems that when I present the task as a puzzle and not a math task, it draws them in. Yes, some get frustrated for a bit. But qu...One o...
