Notes de l'éditeur
Go back to unpacking document. Generalizations in that doc are reference/examples only. You can come up with more! MSL’S WILL BE BASED ON STANDARD NOT GENERALIZATIONS. Generalizations guide instruction!
Transition slide. First step: start with standards! So you know what you want to target
RULE OF THUMB. Developmentally appropriate and whatever schema you have chosen
Thoughts for this slide: Teachers will now work together in groups to develop come up with what they think 3 good units. Doing only 3 for the sake of time so make sure to stress to the participants why they are only doing 3. Tell them not to worry about the conceptual lens just yet. We will focus on that as soon as they have worked with organizing units and deciding what these units will focus on as far as learning. Share out through GoogleDoc-articulate your thinking (why?)
Thoughts for this slide: Have two to three groups share their work before moving to the Conceptual Lens piece.
