How We Teach Makes A Difference!
All these activities are useful in helping students develop, organize, strengthen, and expand their knowledge structures.

What This All Means The Most-Effective Teacher Teaches Well-Structured Tasks Adequate Yearly Progress Occurs When There is focus on improving, monitoring, and providing corrective feedback on instruction “Build It and They Will Come” Achievement will follow

Most-Effective Teachers
Present smaller amounts of material at any time Guide student practice as students worked problems Provide for student processing of the new material Check the understanding of all students Attempt to prevent students from developing misconceptions J.W. Lloyd, E.J. Kameanui, and D. Chard (Eds.) (1997) Issues in educating students with disabilities.

What Does The Well-Structured Lesson Look Like?
Review First Review homework and any relevant previous learning Review prerequisite skills and knowledge for the lesson J.W. Lloyd, E.J. Kameanui, and D. Chard (Eds.) (1997) Issues in educating students with disabilities.

Teaching Well-Structured Tasks
Beginning: The Presentation State lesson goals or provide outline Present new material in small steps Model procedures Provide examples and non-examples Use clear language Avoid digressions Check for student understanding J.W. Lloyd, E.J. Kameanui, and D. Chard (Eds.) (1997) Issues in educating students with disabilities.

Middle: Focus on Guided Practice Spend more time on guided practice High frequency of questions All students respond (to you, to each other) and receive feedback High success rate Continue practice until students are fluent J.W. Lloyd, E.J. Kameanui, and D. Chard (Eds.) (1997) Issues in educating students with disabilities.

Middle: Corrections and Feedback Provide process feedback when answers are correct but hesitant Provide sustaining feedback, clues, or reteaching when answers are incorrect Reteach material when necessary J.W. Lloyd, E.J. Kameanui, and D. Chard (Eds.) (1997) Issues in educating students with disabilities.

End: Independent Practice Students receive overview and/or help during initial steps Practice continues until students are automatic (where relevant) Teacher provides active supervision (where possible) Routines are used to provide help for slower students Daily, weekly and monthly reviews J.W. Lloyd, E.J. Kameanui, and D. Chard (Eds.) (1997) Issues in educating students with disabilities.

What works with struggling students?
More Time: preview, review, elaborate, another way, etc. More Intensity: smaller group allows more focus, more student responding/engagement More Feedback: teacher is able to target instruction, “dial in” specific needs, prompt elaboration, provide alternate examples, etc. ** this can only be done 1-1 or in small homogenous groups** Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

Effective Reading Instruction for Struggling Kids
What We Thought: Student with reading difficulties require qualitatively different reading instruction (e.g. reading styles, perceptual training, colored lens, etc.) Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

Effective Reading Instruction for Struggling Kids
What We Now Know: Struggling readers are far more successful when carefully taught the same fundamental reading skills all readers must learn BUT with: more instructional time more precisely sequenced instruction more coaching & practice more explicit/direct instruction more careful progress monitoring/program adjustment National Reading Council

Purpose The Lesson Organizer Routine helps students to:
Focus attention on important relationships in the content. Remember important strategies needed for learning. Record a way to organize information for later studying and use. Approach the lesson with a purpose. For training in this process by California staff, contact

Supporting Research The Lesson Organizer Routine was studied in secondary content-area classes (grades 7-12) characterized by diversity. In each study, teachers learned the Lesson Organizer Routine easily and student learning gains were observed by both teachers and researchers. For training in this process by California staff, contact

Supporting Research In each study, students gained an average of at least 10 to 20 percentage points on tests or tasks that required students to demonstrate learning. Teachers continued using the routine after the studies were completed. For training in this process by California staff, contact

Supporting Research These results were achieved when teachers:
received 2-3 hours of instruction in the routine had opportunities to discuss the routine with colleagues spent the necessary time to plan and use the routine for more inclusive teaching taught students how to participate in and use the routine used the routine regularly over time For training in this process by California staff, contact

Supporting Research In general, the greatest gains were seen in classes where teachers had the highest expectations for student learning and were consistent in their use of the routine over time. For training in this process by California staff, contact

Section III: Lesson Delivery that Enhances Learning Topic B: Lessons that Work

What Does Explicit Engaging Instruction Look Like?
I DO IT Struggling learners need: gain attention & clearly model cue students to notice critical aspects of the model model your thinking step by step as you solve problems - “mental modeling/direct explanation” Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

I DO IT Struggling learners need: Exposing the non-example Exposing minimal difference Interspersed VS massed practice Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

WE DO IT Provide Thinking Time; Think Pair (Write) Share Structure/prompt engagement:  choral responses if answer/response is short/same  partner responses if answer/response is long/different  correction/feedback - remodeling, more examples, etc. Struggling learners need:

YOU DO IT Struggling learners need:  individual responses; oral, written, point/touch/demo  coaching students to apply the strategy previously taught Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

Throughout Instruction: Monitor and Assess
“Most-Effective Teachers” Know Each Learner’s Need for Differentiated Instruction Who Knows the Material ? Who Needs More Input ? Who Needs More Background ? Who Needs Elaborated Scaffolds ? J.W. Lloyd, E.J. Kameanui, and D. Chard (Eds.) (1997) Issues in educating students with disabilities.

Assessment is Not Instruction
“Least-Effective Teachers” Test mastery after initial instruction--- in lieu of guided practice Test learning outcomes--- in lieu of independent practice Allow practice of errors through these practices

Evaluation vs. Grading Comparison to grade level standards (norm referenced; criterion referenced) Comparison to student’s personal needs, (often criterion referenced or standards from other grade levels) Comparison to teacher expectations for this child, rating attitude, progress, work completion, motivation, etc.

But that’s not FAIR ! All are entitled to differentiated instruction
Never tolerate the teasing of a student who is receiving differentiated instruction or accommodations Fair isn’t everyone getting the same thing Fair is everyone getting what they need! Everyone is entitled to a special program for an area in need of improvement, to help improve a skill.

Next Steps Section III – Topic B
Spend less time on seatwork You do. More time on guided practice We do. Be sure students are ready for “You Do” Teach students differences between Skill fluency practice Skill mastery assessment

Next Steps?

Section III: Lesson Delivery that Enhances Learning Topic C: Small Group Management

Grouping: Issues & Options
Homogeneous Grouping: Skills-Based Lessons - usually best to group by need e.g. - Word study/Spelling by level - Decoding/guided reading instruction & practice ** Groups need to be flexible/change in a day – fluid as student needs change Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

Heterogeneous Grouping: Conceptual/Content-based lessons usually best taught in heterogeneous groups: diverse experience/views etc. enrich the activity e.g. - Science, Social Studies, Core Literature WITH plenty of scaffolded instruction (e.g. Graphics, partners) Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

We need BOTH homogeneous AND heterogeneous options depends on: the purpose the subject the range of prior knowledge Adapted from Dr. Kevin Feldman, 12/01 inservice

Elementary Center Management

Example: Elementary Center Management
1 - Center Activity: Phonics Game Back-up: fact card review 2 - Center Activity: Finish Art Activity Back-up: Tangrams or List A 3 - Center Activity: Science Projects Back-up: Card Game or Building or Blocks 4 - Seatwork Back-up: Independent Work file or Independent Reading

Work Groups

Example: Secondary Student Work Groups
1 – Team Activity: Finish Civil War Charts with Partner Back-up: Quiz each other 2 – Individual Activity: Finish President Reports – Individually Back-up: Illustrations 3 – Instruction Activity: Direct Instruction with Teacher Back-up: none 4 – Individual Activity: Do assignment from Direct Instruction Backup: Independent Reading

Next Steps Section III – Topic C
Consider when to use homogeneous versus heterogeneous groups Make graphic management guides Teach movement in and out of groups Reinforce, reinforce!

Simple Teacher Techniques for Students
Participation in Large & Small Groups Choral Responding Every Pupil Active Responding Cross Your Finger Technique

Example of Choral Responding: Give Me 5
Eyes – Response: on speaker Ears – Response: listening Body – Response: quiet Hands – Response: still Mind – Response: thinking

Example of Group Re-Orienting without Verbal Cues
3 Claps – 3 Snaps 5 – 4 – 3 – 2 – 1

Every Pupil Active Responding
YES NO

Cross your finger

PALS Teams for Reading Comprehension instruction: PALS
- Stronger reader reads a paragraph. - Weaker reader prompts.

PALS Teams for Reading Weaker reader prompts stronger reader to:
1. Name the Who or What. * identification 2. Tell the most important thing(s) about the Who or What. * elaboration 3. Paraphrase in 10 words or less (paraphrasing “straight jacket”) * consolidation * continues for 5 minutes — then switch roles (new text)

Refocusing Off-task Behavior with Positive Verbal Cueing Turtle Technique (for younger students) Radio Station Tuning (for older students)

Refocus with Verbal Cueing and Icons/Symbols Point to the Rules You Are Following Seatwork Time: Self-Recorded Surprise Points Green/Yellow/Red Behavior

Point to rules you are following
Safe ? Respectful Responsible ?

Green Talk about anything with anybody Use comfortable voice level
Work on anything Choose any activity Sit anywhere

Yellow Be productive Talk only with person(s) next to you
Talk only about assignment Your talk should help you Your talk should not interfere with your classmate’s work

Red No talking at all Raise your hand, and wait for permission to speak Be patient Yellow and green are coming!

The 20-Minute Rule Stand Stretch Move (Teacher specific instruction given)

Refocusing Physically Active Learners Having Difficulty With Body Motions Occasionally Allow Full-Body or Partial Body Support Recognize that body movement may actually HELP the student maintain focus.

Next Steps Section III – Topic D
Do I use my voice to gain attention too much? Do I need rule teaching for “You Do?” Example: green/yellow/red Do I follow the 20-Minute Rule?

Section III: Lesson Delivery that Enhances Learning Topic E: Co-Teaching and Collaborating

Collaborating? Co-Teaching?

Co-teaching/Collaboration When it Works
Finding: Outstanding working relationships Upbeat Enjoy each other’s company Respect Ease Trust Carl and Fred! Mastropieri, M.A., Scruggs, et al in Intervention in school and clinic volume 40, #5 May 2005

Co-teaching/Collaboration Requirements for Success
Finding: Both have strengths as motivators Ownership of all claimed by both Enthusiastic Teaching Mastropieri, M.A., Scruggs, et al in Intervention in school and clinic volume 40, #5 May 2005

Finding: Time Allocated for Co-Planning before or after school at lunch formal prep period “The lack of scheduled co-planning time did not appear to be a barrier to effective instruction” Mastropieri, M.A., Scruggs, et al in Intervention in school and clinic volume 40, #5 May 2005

Finding: Appropriate Curriculum selected Hands-on & Activity based=content becomes more concrete for students Language and literacy demands of tasks thus reduced Mastropieri, M.A., Scruggs, et al in Intervention in school and clinic volume 40, #5 May 2005

Finding: Effective Instructional Skills Lesson framework within lessons Daily review Presentation of new information Guided and independent practice activities Formative review Finding: Effective Behavior Support in place Reinforcement for good behavior and class performance

Finding: For students with Disability-Specific Teaching Adaptations Used Continued collaboration to plan success for students with disabilities in upcoming lessons—evaluation, evaluation e.g., Power-point supplementary reviews Provides oral and pictorial e.g., Reduced written language in test questions

Finding: Expertise in the Content Area general ed= content expert special ed= adaptation expert Teachers deferred to each other during instruction Teachers exchanged roles as presenters of content

Co-teaching/Collaboration When it Works---The AHAA!
Finding: “Co-teaching appeared to be most successful where both co-teachers practiced effective teaching behaviors”, e.g., Structure Clarity Enthusiasm Maximizing student engagement Motivational strategies “ Effective teaching behaviors lead to increased academic achievement AND a greater degree of effective collaboration between the two co teachers” Mastropieri, M.A., Scruggs, et al in Intervention in school and clinic volume 40, #5 May 2005

Co-teaching/Collaboration When it DOESN’T Work
