I am going to teach 5th grade science this coming year and haven't taught it before. I think this will be a great strategy to use. Thank you SO much for sharing all this wonderful information. I love the idea but wouldn't know where to start without your help. Thanks again!wonderwoman50https://www.blogger.com/profile/05607083488888937905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4239061985324296356.post-17466380774969059852012-07-02T13:19:31.569-04:002012-07-02T13:19:31.569-04:00I discovered your blog this morning (don't kno...I discovered your blog this morning (don't know from what link b/c I find things I want to look at, open it up, then go back later to read what I had opened). This stuff is terrific!!! I'm learning so much. . .thank you for taking the time to journal all of this information down and help me to learn new ways of teaching. I'll be interested to hear how you grade once you have a good system figured out.Jennibellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08902786008061968790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4239061985324296356.post-89340511494491111622010-08-19T06:03:35.961-04:002010-08-19T06:03:35.961-04:00Nonfiction Leveled Readers - When I plan my lesson...Nonfiction Leveled Readers - When I plan my lesson I always look for material that will be a resouce for students and matches the objective. It doesn't matter where it comes from. If I have a great leveled reader on the water cycle I might put together a little "cheat sheet" using the leveled reader that will be pasted on the left hand side. You could reference the leveled reader at the end of the cheat sheet...example "for more information reread The Water Cycle by ....." You could also require students to fill in information as they read on a left hand sheet. You could create a question/answer sheet on the RH side and they could get with their clock partners to answer (or do it independently).<br /><br />EveEve Heatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342106467437789200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4239061985324296356.post-9982283060137869232010-08-19T05:55:26.547-04:002010-08-19T05:55:26.547-04:00My day in the science class usually starts out wit...My day in the science class usually starts out with a review of what we did the day before (students telling me what we learned or the objective from the day before). Then I go over what the objective of today's lesson is. I then teach a whole group lesson on the subject. Then I usually have independent work related to the lesson or a lab (that is when they will work on the RH assignment). There are times when I have to carry the lesson over or really use Friday as a make up day (that is when they would finish their coloring or get with someone to make up missing work).<br /><br />Hope that helps!<br /><br />EveEve Heatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342106467437789200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4239061985324296356.post-23061550204121557082010-08-18T13:42:04.456-04:002010-08-18T13:42:04.456-04:00What does a day look like in your science class? ...What does a day look like in your science class? I know it will vary, but do you start out whole group, read/do a lab, then complete the notebook? Are there days when you have to carry over a lesson to the next day?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540106880441467188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4239061985324296356.post-68544428425318179272010-08-18T13:26:01.575-04:002010-08-18T13:26:01.575-04:00Although I don't use our textbook on a regular...Although I don't use our textbook on a regular basis with my fifth graders, there are times when we read a section out of the textbook (or read a nonfiction leveled reader). How do I approach givng the students information for the left side of their notebook? Do I type out the highlights/gist of the lesson for them to paste in?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540106880441467188noreply@blogger.com
