Not only are they catchy, they totally infomed me (or any passerby) as to what you all were learning about! And, I think the kids did a really great job with them! I totally get the differentiation piece- that always seems to be the struggle we face: hard to balance those students most concerned with content vs. those who want it to be visually "perfect"... and then those who just want to get the job done! I would assume after using this a few times, the whole process may speed up. But what a great routine to use for a quick assessment!Lynn Burnhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13846550341674968217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435602697257165304.post-87998293686260421592013-04-16T19:59:09.447-07:002013-04-16T19:59:09.447-07:00Jon, I recently reflected on Jeff's use of the...Jon, I recently reflected on Jeff's use of the Headline routine and realized that both of you used it as an engaging formative assessment. What a great way to listen to discussions and clarify misconceptions! I also enjoyed the way you set up the study for students to go back in time to interview about newly discovered photosynthesis. Clever! In third and fourth grade we are going to go back into Colorado History. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768509833052636280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435602697257165304.post-62675357944267769782013-02-19T21:23:12.207-08:002013-02-19T21:23:12.207-08:00It seems to me that this particular routine can be...It seems to me that this particular routine can be challenging because like you stated, children can focus more on presentation and the definition of something as opposed to the significance or "big idea" of a concept. I like how you stated it is a good formative assessment to see whether students are understanding the main idea. Perhaps to differentiate, one would have to have/use differentiated material from which to work. LeslieHaltinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04933517810936586988noreply@blogger.com
