Flipping our Learning?


Thats right! We are embracing the WONDERFUL world of the
Flipped Classroom!
Students will not only take part in the flipped classroom model
this year in mathematics and ELA, but students in Miss. E. Davis
math classroom will take it a step further and dive in the Peer

Students will watch the video to the lesson the night before for HOMEWORK or in
the morning before 8:00am at school.
The teacher will give a quick mini review of that video. from last night if students
need additional clarification whole group.
Students are asked a question related to the topic that expands their thinking.
Each student chooses an answerindividually and the teacher uses the Plickers app
to record students FIRST answer choice.
Students then move into peer discussion to try to convince a fellow student of the
rightness of his or her response.
After 5-10 minutes, students responds to the same question again and the teacher
will record the students SECOND response to see if any change has occurred after
the peer instruction.
The correct answer is shared by the faculty member.
Students are invited to share why they chose the answer they did right or
wrong.
Then a longer explanation is provided.

Show me the HOMEWORK!!!!!!


Since we are implementing the flipped classroom model and
working towards PERSONALIZED LEARNING, homework will look a
little different.
Students will have UNIT Plans that they will receive in the
beginning of each unit.
For homework, students will work on the following:
ALEKS (5th Grade and TAG 4th Grade (Mrs. Brooks Homeroom)
First In Math
Reading for A.R.
WATCHING VIDEOS FROM MY WEBSITE AND THEIR UNIT PLAN!

Unit Plan Examples


4th Grade Unit Plan Example

Unit Plans continued


Students will take a teacher made pre-assessment in the beginning of
EACH of their seven units.
Next they will receive their unit plan to begin work on achieving mastery
on each of the standards within that unit.
Students will work at their OWN PACE to complete each unit before the
deadline.
The students will complete the assignments of their CHOICE from the unit
plan and watch any of the provided videos from the plan of their CHOICE!
The beauty of the flipped classroom model is that students can watch the videos one,
five, twenty or as many times as they need to if they do not understand it the first
time. PLUS there are more than one video provided for EACH standard!

Class Dojo
This year, the fourth and fifth grade teachers are using a
classroom management tool called ClassDojo. ClassDojo is a
web based program which allows teachers to track students
behaviors (positive AND negative) easily and efficiently. The
program is based on points, and students can be given
positive points for things like being on task, being respectful,
participating, or working hard. On the other hand, points can
be taken away if students are off task, talking out, or
unprepared. Our goal is to fully implement the program right
away, but please bear with us as we are learning as we go!
