Semi-truck and trailer unit

The semitruck and trailer is what I would call a simple project. This is a project that student
could make in their 1st year of IA in grade 7 or 8, (I have had grade 12 students make the truck
and A or B-train.) When the students are making their project they are demonstrating to me that they have understood and follow the safety for each of the machines available using. In Mr.
Kurulak’s class you must watch the safety presentation/demo for each machine, and then write a safety exam for that machine earning at least an 80% on the 1st try, if the student does not pass it on the 1st try they must get 100% correct on any rewrites, whatever Mark they get on their 1st exam is what I count towards their report card marks, as I’m assuming at that point I am expecting you know that information.

Summary
For my artifact, I incorporated the multiple intelligences and creativity in the
post-assignments for The Secret Lives of Sgt. John Wilson. Before reading the novel, I
had students take the multiple intelligences test
at http://www.bgfl.org/bgfl/custom/resources_ftp/client_ftp/ks3/ict/multiple_int/ind
ex.htm After this, students had a better understanding of their strengths in the
different intelligences. From here, I introduced some of the projects to the students
and I got input from them about possible projects that we could do which would fit
under the various intelligences. I made it mandatory that students choose three
projects, each from a different intelligence. I suggested that they choose assignments
from the categories in which they scored highly on the multiple intelligences test, but
I left the final decision up to them which assignments they would ultimately choose. I
made sure to give students the assignment details before reading the novel, so in that
way they were able to read with a purpose, keeping the requirements of the
assignment in mind.

Spartan Personalized Based Learning in Math

How we personalized it? What needed to be changed and why?
We went to Loreburn to experience their personalized math program first hand and loved it. On the return drive home to Eaton, we decided to make the commitment to personalize math for our students.
We made this decision because we noticed that students were not engaged and their attitudes towards math were negative; math was either “too difficult”, “too easy”, or they were just
going through the motions. We found that students had gaps in both their math knowledge
and skills and that the gaps were in a variety of places. In order to fill those gaps in a
meaningful way, as well as for students to continue their math journey by earning their
knowledge, we chose implement a personalized or blended learning approach.

Activity Description During my 21stCE meeting with Carole Butcher, I was introduced to Padlet and I immediately saw an application for it in my primary level classroom which is k-3. Although the way we are using it may not be how Padlet is intended to be used, it works great the activity we’ve named Snack Words! Every day before snack time in the morning, each student takes a turn at the Smart Board finding and moving a word they know. They touch and slide the words from one side of the board to the other. After they have had their turn with the Snack Words board, they are allowed to get their snack. I use my discretion about which words they should be able to read and ask them to choose more than one if the word they’ve chosen is too easy for them.

I adapted an assignment designed for younger students to fit my class and the use of technology. Students were put into groups and given an iPad. I put up the QR Codes listed at the bottom of this page around the gym in 3 separate groups for the types of dance covered. The groups then had to scan their QR Codes and work collaboratively together to create an original dance piece. After presenting their choreography to the class they were to then teach their peers the basic steps of the dance style they learned.

In my leadership unit in grade 9 health my students spent time reflecting on how
healthy decisions are important for a healthy future. In an effort to have students
dream positively for their futures, and really focus on the importance of healthy life
choices, I had them create vision boards. Students were encouraged to dream about
their visions for their futures and create a canvas that would display these future
visions. We talked a lot about how leaders spend time planning for the future they
want to have, and create visions and goals for getting to where they want to be in
life.
