One of my favorite things to do as an educator is to create lessons plans that help students address content standards through authentic learning activities and develop transferrable skills. For the stop motion animations, both English Language Arts Common Core and ISTE Standards were addressed. Plus, students had fun, were fully engaged, and developed a greater tolerance for long term projects.

When differentiation and rigor are intertwined the result helps all students learn at high levels. Combining the two is not more work, it’s more effective, says teaching consultant Barbara R. Blackburn. Using a content literacy lesson, she shares her three-group strategy. The post How to Keep the Rigor in Differentiated Lessons first appeared on MiddleWeb.

Energy is one of the most complex standards in upper elementary. Students are expected to learn about kinetic and potential energy, explain how collisions work, and how energy transfers in real-life observations. It can be difficult for some students to understand, but it can also be tricky for teachers to teach, especially if we don’t have a lot of background knowledge on it.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.
