Session 56: Revisit Topics From the Week

60 minutes

discussion-based

Purpose

This session is intended to provide a space for participants to revisit important topics from earlier in the week and share implementation ideas with each other. These ideas can be revisited later in the day when participants begin to work on their plans for the year.

Objectives

  • Participants have shared implementation ideas with each other
  • Participants have written down ideas they would like to implement in their classroom

Supplies & Prep

Room Setup

  • Participants are seated in pods
  • Prior to this activity, facilitators should prepare five pieces of poster paper. Each poster should contain one of the following:
    • Journaling
    • Using Resources
    • Debugging
    • Inclusion
    • Differentiation

Facilitator Supplies and Prep

Teacher Materials

  • Journal
  • Markers

Facilitation Guide

Activity Set-Up (4 minutes)

(1 minute) Context Setting

Remarks

Throughout the week we have discussed a lot of instructional strategies and classroom practices. In this session we are going to return to a few of these and brainstorm ways that we can use or incorporate them in our classrooms. This is all about sharing ideas with each other, so it is time to be creative.

(3 minutes) Move to Groups

Facilitator Tip

Ideally each group will have at least three people. For small workshops, you might consider reducing the number of topics for the activity to four instead of five. Pick topics that you wish you had more time to cover during the week.

Facilitator Prep:

  • Prior to this activity, facilitators should prepare five pieces of poster paper. Each poster should contain one of the following:
    • Journaling
    • Using Resources
    • Debugging
    • Inclusion
    • Differentiation
  • Select five distinct areas of the room where the groups will cluster around the topic posters. Have markers available in each area.

Activity Instructions:

  • Participants select the topic that they have the most ideas for from the following list:
    • Journaling
    • Using Resources
    • Debugging
    • Inclusion
    • Differentiation

Facilitator Tip

Participants should start with the topic that they feel is their strength, but they should also be distributed to a variety of topics. If you notice one topic has a large amount of people, encourage participants to select their second topic choice.

  • Participants move to the corresponding poster where they will discuss and add strategies and ideas directly to the poster

Poster Session (34 minutes)

(6 minutes) Brainstorm Strategies

Remarks

You will have six minutes to brainstorm ideas and implementation strategies to add to your poster.

Facilitator Tip

The facilitator should circulate throughout the room during this activity. It is important that ideas are actually written on the poster. It might be helpful to do a time check half way through and encourage participants to put their ideas down on paper.

Participants brainstorm and discuss strategies to support their selected topic. They write ideas and strategies directly on the poster.

(6 minutes) Rotate, Review, and Add

  • (1 minute) Participants move to the next poster
  • (5 minutes) Participants move to the poster that they feel they know the second most about (the groups might be different in round 2). They read and discuss the strategies already on the poster. They then add additional strategies or comments directly to the poster.

(6 minutes) Rotate, Review, and Discuss

Remarks

In this rotation, you will move to the poster with the topic that you feel like you have the fewest ideas for. Start by reviewing and discussing the ideas and strategies already on the poster. Focus your discussion on how these strategies could be adapted and used in your classroom.

  • (1 minute) Participants move to the next poster
  • (5 minutes) Participants move to the poster that they feel they know the second most about. They read and discuss the strategies already on the poster. This time, participants are asked to discuss how these strategies could be adapted and used in their classroom.

Facilitator Tip

As participants are completing the gallery walk, the facilitator should take pictures of the posters and add them to the group notes document. While doing this, the facilitator should skim the posters to see if anything should bubble up to the whole group for discussion.

Participants are instructed to walk around the room and explore the posters the group has created. During this gallery walk, the goal is to select the top three strategies that they would like to implement in their own classroom.

Reflect and Share (7 minutes)

(3 minutes) Journal

Prompt: Reflect on the ideas you saw on the posters. How will you adapt your top 3 strategies to meet the needs of your classroom?

(5 minutes) Table Share Out

Prompt: Share the strategies you selected and when you plan to use these strategies in your classroom.
