    Let's get started with Q1! #LATICchat
  • marjan_perry Feb 21 @ 8:07 PM EST

    Q2-Let's get them grappling! #LATICchat
  • marjan_perry Feb 21 @ 8:09 PM EST
    A1). Absorbing , challenging , fun #Laticchat
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:09 PM EST
    A1-Challenging! #LATICchat
  • marjan_perry Feb 21 @ 8:12 PM EST
    A2) I plan to imbed the three from Executive Functioning “what if, what else suppose” as I launch an ALU related to the Declaration of Independence #LATICchat
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:14 PM EST
    Let's talk structures and protocols! #LATICchat
  • nsulla - Moderator Feb 21 @ 8:14 PM EST
    A2) I'm with Marjan ... those are great questions ... What If? What Else? Suppose? #LATICchat
  • nsulla - Moderator Feb 21 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A3) Add it to the rubric; create a "question wall" with question stems (like a word wall) #LATICchat
  • marjan_perry Feb 21 @ 8:16 PM EST
    A3). I am using the Home Groups more for everything from unpacking Task statements to the Design Process to deep reflection questions. #LATICchat
  • nsulla - Moderator Feb 21 @ 8:17 PM EST
    I'm sick as a dog so I think you're having more fun than I am! #LATICchat

    A2-I love the metacognition questions. What would you do differently next time? What made you make that choice? Is there a different possible outcome? #LATICchat
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:19 PM EST
    Let's get reflective! #LATICchat
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:20 PM EST
    Oh Nancy, again! You and my kids have had a rough winter. Gabbi just threw up all over her room! #LATICchat

    A4) What surprised you about how you worked your way through this challenge. #LATICchat
  • nsulla - Moderator Feb 21 @ 8:21 PM EST
    easy now ... don't wish THAT one on me ... a horrific cold is bad enough! #LATICchat

    A3-Embedding activities in the activity list that require students to question one another when working through the problem. Using stems are a great way to differentiate and model. #LATICchat
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:24 PM EST
    A4-What ahha did you have? What did you think you know about this problem coming into the unit? #LATICchat
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:25 PM EST
    Let's take a challenge! #LATICchat
  • nyackwiz Feb 21 @ 8:25 PM EST
    A4 Meta??'s force S's to look at what they have done as well as why. This fits into the growth mindset of improving from mistakes and failures instead of giving up or surrendering. I ask S's to look at other S's work and what they would do differently and why? #LATICchat
  • marjan_perry Feb 21 @ 8:25 PM EST
    A4) meta cognitive questions personalize the learning process for each Student. There are no wrong answers. Their thoughts matter. My favorite is “ What does this make you want to know /do as a result of what you learned ?” #LATICchat
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:26 PM EST
    CA-Definitely utilizing the EF Qs! #LATICchat
  • nsulla - Moderator Feb 21 @ 8:26 PM EST
    Amen, Rob! #LATICchat

    Also Question themselves? Reach for farther goals. Beyond the assignment or activity. #LATICchat

    Hey Rob! #LATICchat Love that answer! Building Ss ability to persevere is essential fir success!
  • nyackwiz Feb 21 @ 8:28 PM EST
    I enjoy aha's and have added Oh my's to them because they might not be earth shattering but they are surprises. #LATICchat

    Join us next week @8pm when we discuss Designing Equity-Driven Learning Environments! #LATICchat
  • nyackwiz Feb 21 @ 8:29 PM EST
    CA - I like the idea of embedding questions in the AL's tht will lead to Meta Cog thinking in my S's. #LATICchat
  • nyackwiz Feb 21 @ 8:30 PM EST
    Great ?? forces them to develop a further felt need #LATICchat

    To Marjan's A4 ... I call this the "I Want, I Can, I Do" loop ... the more I accomplish, the more I find other things to learn . . . #LATICchat
  • nyackwiz Feb 21 @ 8:32 PM EST
    Absolutely empower the S's to build and the possibilities are limitless. #LATICchat

    Awesome! #Laticchat

  • nyackwiz Feb 21 @ 8:33 PM EST
    This would be awesome in a home group journal reflection #LATICchat
    In reply to @nsulla
  • fhillmanide Feb 21 @ 8:34 PM EST
    Most definitely! You set the bar high they will reach it! Higher Order Questioning pushes them to think beyond the answer that is most obvious or right in front of them and instead think about possibilities. #LATICchat

  • marjan_perry Feb 21 @ 8:34 PM EST
    CA) I want to post question stems all over the room as well as in rubrics to ecourage deep thinking across subjects and the day #LATICchat
  • nyackwiz Feb 21 @ 8:35 PM EST
    Are the HG's set or do they change? Mine change frequently so S's dont fall into the same roles I have pushed alot of HG work and reflection this year. #LATICchat

    I agree and am always reminded of the RFK quote "some look at the world and say why? I look at it and say why not?" #LATICchat
