- - Gifted- Pays attention in class, but gets bored when the material is too easy- Tends to help struggling students
- Strategies for Alyssa
- The first step in conscious learning is paying attention.
- Provide variety, curiousity, and surprise within my lessonsMake my purpose and objective for the lesson clear and understandableAsk Alyssa questions and provide frames to help her answerMake new information avaliable in focused small bites - chunking
- Focus on building working memoryBuild on current knowledge – figure out what her prior knowledge is
- Our goal today will be to create a short response comparing two like characters. First, we will start by listing each character's traits. To make it more interesting, you get to partner with someone to discuss and note what you know so far about the two characters.
- Strategies for Amelia
- Desirable difficulty leads to deep processing.
- Establish higher standards, provide elaborate feedback, create active involvement through learning projectsFurther stimulate working memoryChallenge her with content slightly above grade level
- Explain understanding to a peerUtilize interleaved practice - mixup types of problems so Amelia has to both decide on the strategy she must use to solve the problem and then also apply that strategy.
- Up to this point, we've been working on the comparison of two like characters and you've shown me you understand this very well. I want to challenge your thinking and have you take the same characters, describe how they are different, and why it's important to the story. To make it more interesting, I also would like you to create a short presentation and teach your findings to your elbow partner.
