@tylaraethompson hopefully a great place for you to build ideas in the starting stages of your journey! #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:08 PM EST

@MrPRichey definitely! I had a poster board + had Ss park post-it notes with Q's and things they really found cool about math #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:09 PM EST

@teachmbw Awesome! Gotta dig deeper with my editing skills! #formativechat

Lets get started with #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:11 PM EST

@cherisemcb What other chats do you recommend for your Ss? #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:11 PM EST

Q1 coming up #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:12 PM EST

@Lichty09 Hmmm. Interesting. Earmarking this for next week for sure! #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:12 PM EST

Q1: Give an example of an FA/task you’ve done with Ss and where it belongs on the #DOK levels! #formativechat https://t.co/ZKjpHfaE65

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:12 PM EST

@teachmbw @cherisemcb As educators, we need to support each other more. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:14 PM EST

@CCooperWWP Welcome Carl! #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:14 PM EST

A1 also super guilty of DOK1 draw, recognize. But I always try and have them really explain WHY they thought that. #formativechat

sarah_paluzzi Feb 22 @ 7:14 PM EST

A1 we discussed technology's role in art and if it makes more traditional forms not have a role in current art education DOK4 #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:14 PM EST

A1: one of the basic math steps is DOK level 1 fact fluency. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

Thanks for starting us off strong Kaitlyn with formatting! Include #DOK level ! #formativechat

DavidBillikopf Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

David- Tech Coach from VA jumping in late to #formativechat

A1 Think-Pair-Share is a good Level One warm-up activity. "Recall the author's main points..." "Name a time when..." #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

Hi @CCooperWWP! Have you done this chat before? #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

@MrPRichey But that fluency builds and encourages other concepts. #formativechat

JMPMath Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

Spoke to a T today about an upcoming FA. Have them list all ways we measure and sort diff ways and defend. DOK3 #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

@MsScott3grade This raises an important Q. Is DOK level 1 appropriate at times? #formativechat

DavidBillikopf Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

@MrSamuelOtte You can also check #formativechat. It is happening right now.

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:15 PM EST

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:16 PM EST

@MsScott3grade I tend to do the same - combination of DOK's #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:16 PM EST

A1: We are building growth assessments using the DOK levels. #mirroredassessments #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:16 PM EST

Gave quote from Plato & asked kids to write a response from Madison. L 3 or 4 #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:16 PM EST

@MsScott3grade That's awesome! DOK level requires Ss to draw from recall and skills to do this! #formativechat

tylaraethompson Feb 22 @ 7:16 PM EST

A1 I agree with @cherisemcb. think pair share is so important. Allowing students to explain can let them discover themselves #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:17 PM EST

@davidwkwan I think so! Warm ups, reviews, minor parts in lessons (paired with a higher DOK) #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:17 PM EST

@davidwkwan @MsScott3grade Absolutely, especially in a FA model. Do you have the basics to build on. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:17 PM EST

@JMPMath That's awesome! Did you find an even distribution in DOK levels? #formativechat

bamaguy1218 Feb 22 @ 7:17 PM EST

#formativechat @MsScott3grade From the north end of the state in Centre. It truly is great to be from Alabama. Nice to see another Bama fan

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:17 PM EST

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:18 PM EST

@MrPRichey @MsScott3grade I agree! need to have that foundation, but doesn't necessarily need to be at beginning of unit #formativechat

MrsKRichey Feb 22 @ 7:18 PM EST

Hi all! I'm Kristin- just eavesdropping on #formativechat tonight- love seeing what my awesome husband @MrPRichey and others are doing!

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:19 PM EST

@MrsKRichey @MrPRichey Welcome Kristin! Great to have you with us! Peter's awesome! #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:19 PM EST

@MrPRichey @davidwkwan @MsScott3grade very true - can't overlook the foundation basics that Ss need to know #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:19 PM EST

@MrsKRichey just wanted to say that your husband is the absolute coolest #formativechat

weknowteaching Feb 22 @ 7:19 PM EST

@davidwkwan Good to see u again! #formativechat

MikeSaracini Feb 22 @ 7:19 PM EST

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:20 PM EST

@MrPRichey very cool! whose initiative was this in your school/district? #formativechat

MrSamuelOtte Feb 22 @ 7:20 PM EST

#formativechat Samuel, A elementary education student from Nebraska. I'm glad to jump into the chat tonight.

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:20 PM EST

@MrSamuelOtte awesome to have you with us Samuel! #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:20 PM EST

@bamaguy1218 what is your lesson on tomorrow? i also taught MS science and would love to help :) #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:21 PM EST

@tylaraethompson @cherisemcb Definitely and think pair share can be applied across #DOK levels! #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:21 PM EST

@teachmbw @MrPRichey @davidwkwan @MsScott3grade How do you know when to move from what level to next? Signs?#formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:21 PM EST

@davidwkwan @MsScott3grade Thie content that is woven in constantly. That reminder of the importance the little things make. #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:22 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy Ss show good grasp of lower DOK, want a challenge, push them further than they think they can go. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:22 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy @teachmbw @MrPRichey @MsScott3grade Is it always sequential? #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:22 PM EST

Q2 is coming up soon! #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:22 PM EST

A1: I would sometimes start class with recall about events leading to Civil War. Not grand, but helped review before we moved #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:22 PM EST

@davidwkwan Definitely not. Sometimes tossing that higher DOK at them works. Sometimes you need to build it. Depends on Ss. #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:22 PM EST

@davidwkwan @teachmbw @MrPRichey @MsScott3grade I don't think it has to be; should be fluid & provide S choice. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:23 PM EST

@MsScott3grade definitely! #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:23 PM EST

@davidwkwan Don't let her fool you, @MrsKRichey is a great reading specialists, teacher and mentor as well. #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:23 PM EST

@MsScott3grade Would you ever start with higher level & work backwards? #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:23 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy I actually did that with precocious and wonderful 8 th graders. Truth. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:24 PM EST

Q2: How can you start applying #DOK levels 2,3,4 to learning + FA at the very start of a unit?How can this benefit your Ss? #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:24 PM EST

A1: beyond typical science, i loved making my Ss write. FA open response where Ss wrote 1st person Solar Life Cycles #create #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:24 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy @MsScott3grade Great question! #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:24 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy For sure. My gifted can start with a high DOK. Esp if I notice a Ss isn't getting it, I bump DOK down. #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:24 PM EST

@davidwkwan the DO's trying to find purpose with what we are moving towards. #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:25 PM EST

@CCooperWWP How about level 2, "relate" an event you are teaching to another event? #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:25 PM EST

@davidwkwan Start them off with a challenging "driving" Q. Make it relevant to them. Get them to dig into it. #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:25 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy @MsScott3grade great question. I'll have to think. #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:25 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy @MrPRichey @davidwkwan #formativechat depends on the topic/class for me ex: teaching computers skills need to know the basics

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:26 PM EST

@MsScott3grade relevancy is huge #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:26 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy that is a great strategy! History is made of connections. #formativechat

bamaguy1218 Feb 22 @ 7:27 PM EST

#formativechat @mrcraigcjones Not a sci lesson. I teach an hon. group class that's like an elective. Lesson's on lib / cons. scavenger hunt

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:27 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy shows why the FA's are so critical. Constantly build in & develop skills. Give students lots of opportunities. #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:27 PM EST

A2: projects to start a unit like density levels in a bottle (https://t.co/Z3G3UeDeFJ) allows for much greater depth later #formativechat

MikeSaracini Feb 22 @ 7:27 PM EST

A2: Adding in levels 2, 3 #DOK at start of the can show us what they understand. Can clear up misunderstandings. #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:27 PM EST

@davidwkwan PBL projects. Start them off on a project that is relevant to them. They find creative ways to solve #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:28 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones love the density rainbow lab! What #DOK level is this? how do you know? #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:28 PM EST

@MrPRichey I completely agree with you. #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:28 PM EST

@CCooperWWP great way to get a conversation started and ideas on the table. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:28 PM EST

@MikeSaracini Definitely! You can take KWL charts and ask students to produce things with what they know #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:29 PM EST

@MikeSaracini agreed - kind of gives Ts a basis for what already known/not and can modify lessons as needed #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:29 PM EST

@MikeSaracini while they might not be able to approach #DOK level 2,3,4 with new skill, they can do it with one they know! #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:30 PM EST

@MsScott3grade @davidwkwan Sometimes nice to show students higher DOK early and then build to it and show how far they went. #formativechat

tylaraethompson Feb 22 @ 7:30 PM EST

A2 FA allows teachers to see what the students have learned and how much further they can go #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:30 PM EST

A2: I think engagement is great reason to start with higher DOK levels at start of unit!They can do so with prior knowledge #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:31 PM EST

@davidwkwan easy labs like this are filled with DOK 3 (what would happen if ____?). Ss start here and have a basis for it all #formativechat

cherisemcb Feb 22 @ 7:31 PM EST

A2 invite Ss' out of school expertise in from the beginning. DOK4 apply/relate as FA & bldg On Ss' literacies #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:31 PM EST

A2: I like to show higher DOK's at the start of a unit that seem crazy, then Ss are proud when it seems so easy at the end. #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:32 PM EST

Here are some other options to add variety to KWL charts: https://t.co/VgQjY7eFQ7 #formativechat https://t.co/LiAQ5fnBCk

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:28 PM EST

@MikeSaracini Definitely! You can take KWL charts and ask students to produce things with what they know #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:32 PM EST

@davidwkwan great way to get Ss excited - challenge is to keep up the excitement! #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:32 PM EST

a2: this is a great response. #formativechat https://t.co/N8cl8NWHRN

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:30 PM EST

A2: I think engagement is great reason to start with higher DOK levels at start of unit!They can do so with prior knowledge #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:32 PM EST

@cherisemcb Love the idea of weaving different literacies!Weave in the focus of a previous unit of study from another subject #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:32 PM EST

anyone else think that Ss sometimes often turn "write a research paper on a topic" from a DOK level 4 to DOK level 1?? #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:33 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones Definitely! It's called wikipedia! JK kind of! #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:33 PM EST

@MsScott3grade @davidwkwan Wish there was more of this happening! #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:33 PM EST

Q3 is coming up! #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:34 PM EST

@MrPRichey @davidwkwan PBL is something we're working on. Trying to come up with a 3 grade fraction PBL is tough. #formativechat

bamaguy1218 Feb 22 @ 7:34 PM EST

@MrPRichey @MsScott3grade #formativechat Where in Bama are you from?

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:35 PM EST

@bamaguy1218 @MrPRichey originally from Tallahassee, FL. Went to Troy, now in Enterprise! #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:35 PM EST

Q3:What are good indicators that you have applied #DOK effectively to learning over the course of a unit of study? #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:35 PM EST

@tylaraethompson & show you concepts they have coming in, maybe things that you do not need to spend the depth of time on. #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:35 PM EST

@bamaguy1218 not to pry but I'm still curious what your lesson is on tomorrow? #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:35 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones very true and that's why Ts keep mixing up the questions/research so can't just be "googled" #formativechat

cherisemcb Feb 22 @ 7:35 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones yep. Also why FA so critical. Can let them know DOK/ learning expectations & preview checks 4 udstdg thruout #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:36 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones @davidwkwan such an easy way to get Ss thinking, but the outcomes are awesome! #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:37 PM EST

@bamaguy1218 woops (your response didn't show on tweet chat, saw it now!) liberal vs conservative or library / cons... #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:37 PM EST

A3: If the Ss can apply info learned in the unit to other units, to other classes, to the real world. #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:38 PM EST

A3: Ss can apply to real world situations and to things that interest them. #formativechat

tylaraethompson Feb 22 @ 7:38 PM EST

A3 It would be easy to tell the students understand the content on a deeper level than simply fact recall. Application is key #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:38 PM EST

@jacq_mccarthy Love this! Applying understanding to different contexts is definitely an indicator for me! #formativechat

cherisemcb Feb 22 @ 7:39 PM EST

A3 student use of academic language! "This process is similar to that process bc..." "Our reason for this choice was..." #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:39 PM EST

@MsScott3grade @davidwkwan would love to think about this with you, fractions still a problem at all levels in Middle School. #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:39 PM EST

@MrPRichey @davidwkwan I'd love some help! #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:39 PM EST

@tylaraethompson definitely! can't just drill and kill! As a math teacher, I tried different performance tasks #formativechat

A3: In reading, I know I've reached higher levels when Ss stop giving me facts and start making connections/applying thinking #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:40 PM EST

So true and yet we see it so infrequently. Great aspirations! #formativechat https://t.co/ZxhxHC3RcW

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:37 PM EST

A3: If the Ss can apply info learned in the unit to other units, to other classes, to the real world. #formativechat

DebbieDkenyon Feb 22 @ 7:40 PM EST

A3 when Ss are able to take basic info & apply, using multiple resources, use concepts such as inference, across subjects #formativechat

tylaraethompson Feb 22 @ 7:40 PM EST

@davidwkwan I am studying to be a math teacher! Different performance tasks and levels are so important #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:41 PM EST

A3: Ss are able to generate different levels of understanding and explanation of topics. #formativechat

CCooperWWP Feb 22 @ 7:41 PM EST

@DebbieDkenyon wonderful A3! #formativechat

MrsKRichey Feb 22 @ 7:41 PM EST

Yes! I love to bring 'hypothesize' into reading! It triggers such deeper thinking than just 'guess' #formativechat https://t.co/ysp3EYz3Sp

A3: I think complexity rather than difficulty is nature of DOK. As a result,we need to challenge Ss to dig deep w/ creativity #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:42 PM EST

@davidwkwan @mrcraigcjones a T shared her method-take notes from research only using bullet points/ rephrase etc #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:43 PM EST

@teachmbw @mrcraigcjones great strategy! and also develop own argument that is tied to personal experience! #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:43 PM EST

A3 i like to see Ss teach a concept to others by applying a concept to a discipline that they care about #formativechat

DebbieDkenyon Feb 22 @ 7:43 PM EST

A3 moving Ss from 3 to 4 by use of PBL, creating using multiple resources over time for authentic product, real world #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:44 PM EST

@davidwkwan this is part of the problem with standardized testing. We want creativity but test with S restraints #formativechat

DebbieDkenyon Feb 22 @ 7:45 PM EST

A3 the level of thought required by the Ss shows Ts when students have mastered level 2,3 or 4..complex, not "hard" #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:45 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones If Ss teach each other and give feedback to each other, they can approach DOK level 2,3,4 very early in unit #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:45 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones tmrw giving lesson where my computer Ss will be creating a lesson to teach new concept 2 peers! #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:45 PM EST

Q4 coming up! #formativechat

cherisemcb Feb 22 @ 7:46 PM EST

@davidwkwan @teachmbw @mrcraigcjones very imp in digital age. Qs have 2 go deeper than web search, req synthesis & inference #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:46 PM EST

@davidwkwan @mrcraigcjones lots of research to show S reflection and assessing is a key factor in growth. #formativechat

cherisemcb Feb 22 @ 7:46 PM EST

@teachmbw @mrcraigcjones nice! Best way to know u know something is to teach it #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:47 PM EST

We need more application-based learning that requires Ss to be think critically & creatively. #formativechat https://t.co/mCUq05vRv0

freddielafemina Feb 22 @ 7:49 PM EST

@CCooperWWP @jacq_mccarthy not sure how to get in but this conversation is helpful as I embark on a WW2 unit (juniors) #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:49 PM EST

A4: POD talks & questioning to get S to dig deeper in thoughts and ideas. Use @goformative to build conversation of S work. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:49 PM EST

@freddielafemina @CCooperWWP @jacq_mccarthy I am happy to hear that and excited for you! #formativechat

A4 post Qs to Ss around room,higher levels, they "carousel" around the room in pairs w/sticky notes leaving answers #formativechat

Lichty09 Feb 22 @ 7:51 PM EST

A4: Give the students a question that will require them to have a discussion and figure out the answer. Not just solve for x. #formativechat

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:52 PM EST

A4: Some options from https://t.co/7WvN1QNS3H #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:52 PM EST

@MrsKRichey I used to think FA had to always be an activity Ss engagedin actively, but sometimes observing is what is needed #formativechat

teachmbw Feb 22 @ 7:52 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones A1/2 -MSOffice word 2010-we use free online resource "https://t.co/s6UJFLKF2i" Ss choose from lessons past 17 #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:52 PM EST

@Lichty09 Give them the answer and have them create the question! This builds lot of S talk about the many possibilities. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:53 PM EST

@DebbieDkenyon Great way and how do you as a teacher collect that information to inform teaching? observing or note-taking? #formativechat

PLloydHenry Feb 22 @ 7:53 PM EST

Good evening #formativechat - after looking forward to the chat all day - I got caught up and missed it

jacq_mccarthy Feb 22 @ 7:53 PM EST

@freddielafemina @CCooperWWP Absolutely, Ss need to connection to grasp the material at a deeper level. #formativechat

freddielafemina Feb 22 @ 7:53 PM EST

@CCooperWWP @jacq_mccarthy teachers can then model/facilitate. #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:53 PM EST

https://t.co/MrjyMgFsNL just some ideas! #formativechat

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:53 PM EST

@davidwkwan @MrsKRichey The longer I teach the more I learn I need to stop talking. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:53 PM EST

@PLloydHenry We misssed you Phiona! Hope you find some good ideas here though and feel free to post your's! #formativechat

cherisemcb Feb 22 @ 7:54 PM EST

A4 there's gotta be an app for that 😊 #formativechat

MrsKRichey Feb 22 @ 7:54 PM EST

@MrPRichey @davidwkwan The one who does the talking does the learning! Sometimes teachers DON'T always know best! GASP! #formativechat

PLloydHenry Feb 22 @ 7:54 PM EST

@davidwkwan Thank you - I’m already reading and I’m finding many great ideas #formativechat

DebbieDkenyon Feb 22 @ 7:54 PM EST

@davidwkwan #formativechat I walk around room listening/observing, Ss leave "team name" on sticky notes as well, great collaboration

MrPRichey Feb 22 @ 7:54 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones A2/2 they read/watch video then create study guide/task for peers 2 create; looking forward 2 see what they do #formativechat

cherisemcb Feb 22 @ 7:55 PM EST

@DebbieDkenyon my mind went to post it notes too. Then could take it a step further and pull from them the next day #formativechat

mrcraigcjones Feb 22 @ 7:55 PM EST

A4: reading DOK 4 makes me think how to design, connect, create, prove in class but extended thinking takes extended time #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:55 PM EST

@DebbieDkenyon awesome, thanks! #formativechat

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:55 PM EST

@DebbieDkenyon What do you mean "team names" #formativechat

tylaraethompson Feb 22 @ 7:56 PM EST

@tylaraethompson Best of luck and come back. Always great to hear new thinking! #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:57 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones So I think we need to be nimble in observ. as Ss take that time to engage in task! #formativechat

PLloydHenry Feb 22 @ 7:57 PM EST

@DebbieDkenyon @davidwkwan I love the idea of a harvest of ideas-Ss Give one/take one and create a list/set of ideas to share #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:57 PM EST

@cherisemcb this is a great idea! Can you give us an example? :) #formativechat

DebbieDkenyon Feb 22 @ 7:57 PM EST

@MsScott3grade #formativechat if Ss are working in teams to answer Qs, they usually give themselves a "name", I know it, other Ss don't

MsScott3grade - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:57 PM EST

@DebbieDkenyon @MsScott3grade Oh I gottcha! I knew it was going to be super simple. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Feb 22 @ 7:58 PM EST

@mrcraigcjones or use #goformative haha! gather live responses on higher #DOK #formativechat

PLloydHenry Feb 22 @ 7:58 PM EST

I love this idea - metacognitive, pays homage to what Ss know & care about etc. #formativechat https://t.co/XM1v1eyUVz
