3/23/15 and 3/24/15 Work and Machines Review

Date: 3/23/15 and 3/24/15
Class: Physical Science
Periods: W1,2,4 and B2

Outcomes: Students will be able to describe Work and how Simple Machines change force.

Standards: 9-12.P.2.3

Student Needs: 

Assessment Plan: Ticket to Leave

Lesson Outline: Bellringer > Review types of bonds and distance/displacement > Today isn't about points or a grade, today is about making sure all of us have a good understanding of the material in Chapter 5. Your job is to make sure everyone can get an A or B next class on the quiz. To do so, I will give you a copy of the quiz. The questions will be out of order and numbers in the calculation problems will be changed. You can go through it all as a class, split up into groups, the big thing is to make sure everyone is ready to go for the quiz next class. > Monitor students and redirect behaviors as they organize and go about reviewing the material. > When there are 10 minutes left bring them all together and have them answer these 3 questions on schoology: What material was difficult before do you think you understand better now? What material do you still feel uncomfortable with? Do you think a review session like today was beneficial, why or why not?

Reflection:
W1: Mostly worked individually, quite a bit of March Madness conversation.
W2: First half only used notes/textbook, last half had quiz to work with. Worked in pairs, still a lot of off task behavior.
W4: Some individuals, groups of 3-4. A lot of off-task behavior. 3 students playing chess. *Not enough can handle self-directed activities*
B2: One small group, otherwise individual. Asked the class to focus on studying and it became all individual work. Once quizzes were handed out, they still worked individually.

Idea needs a lot of accountability added to it (stay in assigned seats, assign a class leader to direct studying/discussion)
