1. Scaffolding Stageties
1.1. Objective 1 will give the students the best opportunity to tap into prior knowledge they have about color. This will be a good to have a student centered discussion
1.1.1. The class discussion can then be broken into a turn and talk centered more specifically to how we wish to use what we know about color for the project.
1.2. Due to the level of visual aids i use in classroom, combinding them with a pre-introduction to the important vocabulary should help to translate better the meaning of the words.
1.2.1. To assist with the retention of certain vocabulary word, or the " target word" of the project, I will use that as a way to transition the Students. Periodically using it and asking them to repeat what it means.
1.2.1.1. For the younger kids, I'll try to use the word in a sentence to build on their sentence building in their regular classroom.
1.3. To have everyone involved and on their toes, i will turn the sentence start stategy into a game of hop potato for the older students.
1.3.1. this will act as a constant way to check for understanding.
1.4. All the assessments will be a visual display. For objective 2 and 3, they will actively demonstrate the understanding by designing and painting a project surrounding the main idea of the objective. They will be graded based on a teacher designed rubric.
1.4.1. To incoportate a peer feedback, they will have to do a peer review critique.
