Session 7: Module 1 Session 2

60 minutes

lesson planning session | asynchronous

Purpose

The purpose of this session is for participants to understand the lesson they have been assigned and the resources available in the lesson:

  • Try activities and tools
  • Watch videos
  • Read lesson plan
  • Review and coordinate the slides with the lesson plan
  • Look through linked resources

Participants get to know what is actually in their lesson and the resources available to them (lesson plans, Code Studio and slides).

Objectives

  • Participants understand how to use curriculum resources to prepare for lessons, including how to read a lesson plan, the importance of doing the activities in the lesson plan, and reviewing the slides.
  • Participants understand how to navigate the Code.org website to access lesson plans and activities.

Facilitation Guide

Transition to Asynchronous (0 minutes)

Facilitator Tip

During the midday asynchronous session, you will likely want to keep the web conference open so participants can work together and get help. You and your co-facilitator will work together to divide up the office hour time. While you are on, you should be supporting participants and creating breakout rooms as necessary.

Producer Tip

During the entire asynchronous break, make certain to assign host privileges to the facilitator or producer who will remain online. This is necessary to create breakout rooms for groups wishing to work together.

There is no need for a dedicated Transition to Asynchronous as that was handled in previous session.

Participant Work Time (60 minutes)

Facilitator Tip

You and your co-faciltiator should be both very active during this entire session. Successful lesson planning sessions will make smoother sailing for the 8 hours spent in TLO. Things you both should do during these sessions:

  • Make sure everyone can find the resources
  • Watchout for conflicts between participants in a teaching group
  • Ensure that participants are DOING the activity, not just reading about it.
  • Help enforce the “this is time to get to know what is in your lesson” goal here. If a participant tries to break up the lesson to different people, remind them that there is time to do that tomorrow.
  • Watch for groups who want to “go rogue” and do their own lesson instead of what is in the lesson plan. To intervene, it can be helpful to remind them
    • A) They should look at what is in this lesson first
    • B) It is their responsibility to show participants what is in the lesson
    • C) They will be able to share their choices, advice, and takeaways at the end of the lesson. They can also share additional resources in the group notes for people to access later
  • For participants who are “done” ask them what the first thing is in the lesson. Have them walk through the lesson out loud. Ask them what portions they think might go shorter or longer with the group or how they will know to “move on” from a portion of the lesson plan - how will they know if students have learned the content?

(60 minutes) Begin Lesson Planning: Understand the Lesson Resources

Overview:

In this activity, you will become familiar with all of the materials in the lesson you will be teaching. In particular, you should explore the lesson and the resources available in the lesson, including:

  • Try activities and tools
  • Watch videos
  • Read lesson plan
  • Look through linked resources

Do This:

  • Read through the first page of the lesson plan
  • Read through the lesson planning guide
  • DO THE ACTIVITIES YOURSELF - Don't just read through the lesson plans. Make sure you work through the activities as a student
    • You shouldn't make assumptions about how activities will play out.
    • It's important that you test out the activities themselves.

Teachers should be working on filling in Step 1 on page 11 of the Activity Packet.

NOTE: Groups will have 60 more minutes during the evening asynchronous for planning their lessons. The biggest goal right now should be to get through reading the lesson and doing activities. There is plenty of time later to figure out exactly how they will want to deliver the lesson.
