How will you maximize instruction to increase student achievement?
January 6, 2014
Review the essential components for unpacking the benchmarks by utilizing FCAT Test Item Specifications to reach the level of rigor expected of students by state standards.
Synthesize the standards in an upcoming unit in order to develop a common definition of mastery for student learning for the end of the unit.
Create a plan to maximize instructional time for quarter 3.
Outcomes
Today’s Learning Objective - unpacking standards to gain understanding and plan effectively
Where do we begin? With unpacking ourselves!
Find 5 things the entire group has in common (other than body parts, clothing, and occupation)
First group finished wins!

Formative Assessments
Unwrapping – The Basics
Learning Objectives – What do I want my students to understand?What skills and knowledge will they need?Evidence/Assessment- How do I know they understand?Planning- What next?
Questions for Analyzing Standard Expectations
What information should be generated during the analysis process? What do students need to Know?
(Fact) What students need to Understand?
(Concept) What students need to be able to Do?
(Skill)
Questions for Analyzing Standard Expectations
What information should be generated during the analysis process? What prior knowledge do students need
to have to be successful on this benchmark?
What are possible misconceptions students
may have with respect to this benchmark?
Consensus Protocol A team approach to determining unit goals
Purpose:Collaborate in order to organize thoughts, make connections, and consolidate information to move teams toward shared expectations for student learning.
Beginning the Unwrapping Process
Go to Cpalms website: http://www.cpalms.org/Public/
Click on Educator Toolkit for the appropriate grade
Go to NGSSS Language Arts/ Reading to find your standard on your placement

Scavenger HuntQuestion #3
High Quality Instruction or Instructional Delivery
Instructional Delivery (Archer, 2011) Variety Modeling and demonstration by teachers and students Student exploration and collaboration Frequent assessment that produces valid data (formal and informal)
Higher Order Questioning (Wilson, 2011) Asking follow-up questions Multiple Correct Responses(open-ended) Questions that require explanation and/or justification of thinking
Rigor (Starr, 2010) Evidence of students working and thinking (verbal and written) Challenging students (comfortable discomfort?) Applying knowledge to new or familiar contexts Building new knowledge from existing knowledge
Differentiated Instruction (Hall et al, 2003) Content addressed in multiple ways (same goals/different methods) Tasks related to identified individual needs (academic and behavioral
data)
Classroom Culture and Environment
Classroom Management (Hall, 2002)
Connection between classroom activities Strategies enhance interactions and student behavior Time management during and between tasks
Classroom Environment (MSU, 2004)
Configuration (where/how/why students are seated) Visuals and artifacts (meaningful resources) Safe learning (mistakes used as learning opportunities) Clean and orderly
Student Engagement (Jones, 2008)
Task, Questions, Responses, etc. (beyond compliant work) Interactions (Student to Student, Teacher to Student,
Student to Teacher)
Revisit your unit goals from the consensus placemat and identify which goals would occur at the beginning (B), middle (M), and end (E) of your unit.
Use the two column planning tool to organize instructional strategies and resources for your next unit of study.
