A Recipe for Success!
Imagine having an example lesson with all the "ingredients" included: outcomes, instruction, student demonstration of learning, assessments, resources and templates. Similar to the meals plans such as Hello Fresh and Chef's Plate, these lessons are easy to prepare, yet still allow educators to "spice it up" with ingredients from their own pedagogical pantry!
- An example lesson plan based on new curriculum
- Student activity ideas and demonstration of learning
- Pro pedagogical tips and tricks
- Videos from consultants to support teachers
- Classroom ”in action” videos showcasing the possibilities
- Assessment examples and considerations
A curriculum crate allows for a “teacher to apply a current and comprehensive repertoire of effective planning , instruction, and assessment practices to meet the learning needs of every student”(TQS 3). We start by dissecting a learning outcome to examine what students need to know, experience, and demonstrate in their learning journey for that outcome during this timeframe. We then use this to plan an appropriate lesson(s). These crates are an example moment in time that can showcase possibility to educators. Ideally you will customize this lesson to meet the needs of your students and know that learning outcomes are returned to many times throughout the year as we layer on our knowledge, understandings, skills, and procedures of each learner outcome. Thank you to teacher working groups who worked side by side with consultants to create these.
