SOIL is a writing pattern based on the book by Margaret Wise Brown. Read the story and let the kids guess what the important thing about each item is. They all like joining in at the last line. This lesson can be done with any theme. I put this together as a culminating ELA activity for our soil unit.

My goal this year was to include more opportunities for students to work collaboratively and develop their critical thinking skills at the same time. The example I have chosen for my artifact is an invitation I created for our final Science unit, Rocks and Minerals. I included this invitation in my centers and this allowed students a great deal of time to explore and examine the station independently. The students loved it and it was a very popular place in our classroom! I created the invitation by gathering the rocks and minerals books and materials that we had in our school. Students were then given opportunity just to explore the rocks and minerals station before we even began the unit. Once we began the unit students began to add materials to the exploration station in the classroom.

My goal was to transform the learning environment from a traditional atmosphere to a student-led learning experience. Essentially, I have become the facilitator, rather than the knowledge keeper. Students are immersed in inquiry learning. 1. The learning environment has become the third teacher in the classroom and is very important. My classroom is divided into a variety of learning zones: - Teacher zone (an area near the smart board – could be defined with a carpet and invite kids to come closer) - Student tables – students work in pods of 4 (which have replaced all the desks) - Reading corner (leveled books line a bookshelf. Mats and bean bag chairs were purchased) - Walking lanes – a simple line on the floor where kids can go and wear off a little energy or to get their minds thinking - Horse shoe table for guided instruction - Small table for an individual work area - Bulletin Boards – have consciously tried to have them interactive (RAN Chart and Parking Lot, homemade whiteboards) 2. For student supplies, a caddy is in the middle of each table for shared supplies. All other personal supplies are stored in baskets and put in their lockers

I created a grade 4 science unit on sound. For the student’s final assessment, they got to make music by creating their own instruments. There were several components to this assessment. The students completed a plan which included what materials they needed, how their instrument was going to make sound and change pitch and volume. Then they had to construct their instrument. In a sharing circle, the students shared their information and how and why they made their instrument the way it was. Have a class jam session! This assessment allowed students to be creative (not one of the instruments were similar)! The students had to use their critical thinking and collaboration skills to construct instruments that made sound and could change pitch and volume. There was trial and error and students going to one another for help. This assessment allowed for triangulation through conferring, observing, and the final product. The various steps also allowed for differentiation as some students were strong with writing their responses and others preferred sharing their knowledge through speech and hands on! The class jam session allowed for a celebration of learning!

The goal of my 21 Century Learning project was for students to use collaboration and communication into preparing a showcase of their learning for parents, administration and each other. The showcase would also include some technological components of their learning by using iPad tools. Twice in the school year, students prepared a showcase of their learning. They assembled their showcase of their learning and presented it in a mock interview to peers. They then presented their showcases to parents. There was a combination of paper, project, and digital samples of learning. The students followed a script which is included. Students used the Reproducibles from the book Self-Assessment and Goal Setting to guide the self-selection of their learning samples.

My goal was for students to be able to co-create criteria for self-assessment in a variety of subject areas.
My grade five students were asked to recall what they had learned about co-constructing criteria this year, and then develop a lesson plan for interns. This is their plan, with links to criteria and assessments developed and used this year
