 * **Template for Collaborative Lesson Plan – A. 4.2 ** ||

For clarity, the lesson plan template should be on its own wiki page. __**Planning **__ **· Reading Comprehension Strategy** : Synthesizing · **Reading Development Level** : Advancing (4th grade) · **Instructional Strategies** : Summarizing and Note-taking · **Lesson Length** : 45 min for 3 day sessions and 5 min. presentations for 4 days **· Purpose :** The purpose of the lesson is for students to synthesize information learned about Texas History, the significance of the battle of the Alamo and the heroes that defended it and present the summary of their hero in a collaborative presentation. **· Objectives :** On your rubric you indicate students will have a choice. My advice is to make a sample for students (perhaps on the Alamo from Santa Anna's perspective). You would demonstrate how the PPT is the basis for the VoiceThread and how students can collaboratively record narration using VT.
 * 1)The students will be able to identify key figures at the battle of the Alamo and take notes on important details.
 * 2)The students will be able to distinguish between Travis, Bowie, Crockett, Dickinson and their roles in defending the Alamo from Santa Anna in the pursuit of Texas' freedom from Mexico.
 * 3) Students will synthesize the information from the resources presented (stories, webquest, websites).
 * 4) The students will collaborate in small groups to summarize, create and present their Alamo hero in a group made PowerPoint (or VoiceThread)  presentation.

<span style="color: #800080; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This is rich selection of multimedia resources for students' use. Hurray for educators who share their work widely for others to use (WebQuest)!
 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Graphic Organizers **[[file:Hero Graphic Organizer-2.doc]]<span style="color: #800000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Your graphic organizer is a category matrix. Please consider adding a category for the most surprising bit of information, or why students should know about this person. One or two open-ended categories may increase students' buy-in.
 * <span style="color: #800080; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Your revision makes this organizer more effective in scaffolding students' research process.

 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Collaboration : **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The teachers will individually and team teach note taking and model synthesizing the information from the many sources presented. They will monitor the work on the graphic organizer and webquest/websites. They will monitor the collaborative groups and assist where needed.
 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Assessment : [[file:Hero Rubric.doc]] **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Teacher made <span style="color: #993300; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">rubric <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">consisting of the expectations for the note taking (note cards and graphic organizer), complete information presented on graphic organizer, expectations for PowerPoint/VoiceThread slideshow, a <span style="color: #800000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">student self-assesment <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> row (students can assess how well they contributed to their collaborative group work) and a <span style="color: #800000; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">whole group assessment row <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> (classmates assess group on their presentation). Rubric for Teachers: Teachers complete the same rubric, self-assessing themselves on how well they felt the students did in each category of the rubric.
 * <span style="color: #800080; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I believe your rubric is improved. If using WallWisher for notemaking is an important aspect of your lesson, you may want to name it.
 * <span style="color: #800080; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It may be confusing for the subjects to change (the student, I, group). You may find creating separate rubrics will work better for students' comprehension, or you may save the trees and make separate tables for various parts.

These are great motivators, but you did not say how the educators will team teach to use these to motivate students. Will they lead a discussion? Share their individual responses to this information?
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">**Student-friendly Objectives :**
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 1-2 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Identify key figures at the battle of the Alamo.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Distinguish between Travis, Bowie, Crockett, Dickinson and their roles in defending the Alamo.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Respond to questions and share facts learned.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 3-7 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Work collaboratively with group to produce PowerPoint / VoiceThread project.
 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Presentation : **<span style="color: #800080; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Effective use of two educators to maximize the impact on student learning during the presentation section of your lesson plan, especially on days one and two.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 1 Teachers will p<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">resent video/audio clips to introduce heroes of the Alamo using interactive whiteboard in classroom.Teachers will read two read-aloud stories in small groups. Mrs. New will take notes on interactive whiteboard and Mrs. Book will use chart paper about heroes and information needed for students to fill in graphic organizer. Both teachers will model how to take important notes from story on WallWisher. Students use notecard for each hero focusing on information needed for graphic organizer used tomorrow.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 2 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Split group into 2 groups - one stays in room and works on graphic organizer. Independently, but with teacher support, students will fill in graphic organizer using note cards. Other group works with librarian on WebQuest in computer lab experiencing different websites with information to add to note cards and graphic organizer. Students will be picked for 4 groups. Each group will draw for a hero from completed graphic organizer.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 3 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The 4 groups will collaborate and decide what information goes on 5 slides for PowerPoint from information gathered on graphic organizer and expectations from rubric while in the computer lab. Students will use rubric to guide their work and participation. VoiceThread will be recorded at end of developing PowerPoint.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Presentations <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> will take place over the next 4 days in classroom (on interactive whiteboard) and students will present their hero and any extension props they have to enhance their project. Classmates will assess group on their presentation according to rubric.

Students are active in the closure on all days. Brava!
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">**Student Participation Procedures :**
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 1 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Suggest ideas for interactive note-taking with teacher.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Fill in graphic organizer/category matrix.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 2 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Actively engage in WebQuest search for information on heroes.
 * Complete graphic organizer/category matrix.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 3 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Collaboratively work with group to produce PowerPoint and VoiceThread.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Days 4-7 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Participate in presentation of hero.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">or **
 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Student Practice Procedures **
 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Guided Practice : **
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 1 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> - Teachers will encourage students to share ideas/facts for notes on interactive whiteboard and chart paper.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Teachers will model effective note-taking for students.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 2 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> - Teachers will model how to synthesize information from many resources by talking aloud the way to process their thinking and knowledge learned.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 3 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> - Teachers will monitor cooperative groups while in the computer lab to assist when needed.
 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Closure: **
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 1 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">After taking notes on cards, students will be asked to share fact learned or how to select information to place on note.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Day 2 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students will be asked to share a new fact learned from experience on WebQuest/websites.
 * <span style="color: #151565; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Days 3 -7 <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students will be asked to share something learned from collaborative groups.

You can improve the reflection by developing specific questions. (Describe can lead to long narratives!) Example: How did using more than one source to synthesize information help you clarify facts about the Alamo?
 * **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Reflection : **<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">On last day (after all presentations) - Describe how your group work helped you synthesize the facts learned and helped clarify the information for you.

Teachers may chose to have presentations on one day and make it an Alamo Hero Dress Up Day. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students can use ideas from WebQuest for additional props and/or artifacts for their presentation. Students can work together to produce a product or bring items in from home to support the presentation. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students can be directed to read //Boy in the Alamo// for more information on the Alamo. <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Have students read information about the Battle at Goliad and Battle of SanJacinto, while learning about James Fannin and Sam Houston 's contributions to the state of Texas on the Texas History Website []
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">**Extensions** (Moreillon 15) Were they also given options for a final technology presentation (on your rubric)?

All of these extensions can lead to further classroom-library collaboration. Brava!
