Observation II FEEDBACK 2December 7, 20161. What do you think you did well? a. Spread my time evenly among three groups during group-work b. Demonstrated the task on the board c. Asked comprehension check questions (CCQ) and instruction check question (ICQ) d. Got students to participate2. What do you want to work on? a. Giving instructions clearer b. Getting students’ attention i. MD notes: you might want to consider coming up with a certain protocol or a set of codes that your sts are privy to and try out different things (phrases, movements, key-words) that seem best for you and your sts3. What do you have questions about? (During today’s lesson) a. How to create easier ways for students to summarize texts within lesson i. MD notes: you could try this out by doing this type of activity: (1) giving the sts texts they’ve already read and are familiar with (2) Providing the paraphrased version of the text (so they have a whole packet - maybe 4 or 5 texts - with the paraphrased version) (3) Then the students, in their groups, have to come up with the constant theme - and they decipher the rule of “how to paraphrase” (4) Then you give them the rules of how to paraphrase and they compare it to their own notes (5) After that you give them a brand new text (maybe one page) that sparks their interest and they have to paraphrase the text with their group (one person in the group records the paraphrase) (6) Then you collect the 5 tables’ paraphrased writing and project them on the board (7) As a class you underline or highlight only ​what to include in a paraphrase so you are only focusing on the positives (you are not pointing out what not to include) (8) After looking at all 5 paraphrased paragraphs you will construct a paraphrased piece of writing based on the new text -- you will have already written this in advance (9) The students copy it down in their notebooks - do not just give it to them - they should write it down for themselves so they can experience it for themselves.4. Next steps you’ll take. a. MD notes: Play around with a variety of ways to give instructions → you could do traditional short, simple, clear + ICQ or you could give instructions in L1 (on a

note cards) and then maybe trying out writing the steps and modeling it (soincorporate a kinesthetic activity); alternatively you could elicit from the sts whatyou’d like for them to do → try out different ways and choose the best method foryou and your students (but be flexible)
