Chapter leader ASSIGNMENT
Prepare presenting a Chapter using direct instruction. The primary purposes of this assignment are to build vocabulary in context confidence when delivering direct instruction to the class and to strengthen understanding ofVocabulary principles by applying them to an authentic teaching activity.
Requirements:
As part of the Chapter Leader Assignment, each person must:
- Have an opening class activity to introduce the topic (e.g. Ch.1 “What’s going on around here?”).
- Summarize key points for each section of the Chapter handout. Each student decides on the content for the lesson (e.g., how and what to summarize in each section).
- Have group discussion questions either throughout the lesson or at the end of the lesson (e.g. Ch. 1 “What do you consider most challenging in this chapter? What context clues can you find in the reading?”).
Some thoughts to think about when planning:
- Materials: <Assume paper/pencil/crayons are available. List all materials you would need to locate or prepare prior to the lesson.>
- Procedure: <List teacher actions under each of the following headings using directive action words, e.g., ask, divide, describe. Predict the estimated number of minutes each segment should take. Assume no more than 20 minutes total.>
- What techniques were used to create, maintain, or increase motivation to participate in the lesson?
- What are at least two things did or had students do that were intended to establish and maintain memory? (e.g. chapter handout)
- What are at least two steps you took to keep students engaged during your lesson? Why were these steps important for your lesson?
