From Mr. R's Desk
BOBCAT NATION
This week we continue to focus on student engagement, specifically on Opportunities to Respond. As you might recall, Ed-Direction shared their toolkit with us and this week's highlight is Speaking and Listening (see chart below). I am also sharing Ed-Direction's intro to Opportunities to Respond.
Why: Opportunities to Respond increases student engagement by offering multiple opportunities for students to read, write, demonstrate, speak, and listen during classroom instruction.
Background: Opportunities to Respond, also referred to as Active Student Response, is a strategy that prompts students to make their learning seen and heard. This strategy requires strategic lesson planning that breaks down learning tasks for students, designed to:
- enhance student engagement and participation by offering multiple opportunities to read, write, demonstrate, speak, and actively listen during classroom instruction,
- increase the frequency of accurate and actionable feedback about levels of learning, and
- promote a deeper understanding of rigorous content.
This week's challenge is to choose one Speaking and Listening strategy and apply it to one of your lessons.
