2. Use a research-based process for teaching new terms and phrases.
• Students should discuss the terms.
• Students should play with words.
• Effective vocabulary instruction involves the gradual shaping of word meanings through multiple exposures.
• Effective vocabulary instruction does not rely on definitions.
• Students must represent their knowledge of words in linguistic and nonlinguistic ways.

Step 1: Provide a description, explanation, or example of the new term.
Step 2: Ask students to restate the description, explanation, or example in their own words.
Step 3: Ask students to construct a picture, symbol, or graphic representing the term or phrase.
Step 4: Engage students periodically in activities that help them add to their knowledge of the terms in their notebooks.
Step 5: Periodically ask students to discuss the terms with one another.
Step 6: Involve students periodically in games that allow them to play with terms.

To what extent do the Learning Goals address essential knowledge?
Once the Learning Goal is clear, we can monitor the quality:
Is it likely the assignment/assessment will enhance students’ learning of, or actually assess, the knowledge in the Learning Goal?
Given the Learning Goal, is this assignment worth the time?
Are there aspects of the assignment that would require knowledge other than that in the Learning Goal? If so, are we teaching that knowledge or assuming that knowledge?

Applying Nonlinguistic Representations
to Summarizing and Note Taking
The amount of carbs—and the type—will determine how your blood sugar responds. For example, a jelly doughnut will raise blood sugar much more than a salad will. As the sugar level in your blood goes up, the pancreas releases insulin to move the sugar out of the blood.
Insulin is manufactured in a part of your pancreas called the Islets of Langehans. Think of insulin as the barge that transports the glucose from your blood to your cells.
Once it reaches the cells, three things can happen to that glucose: It can be mobilized for immediate energy; it can be converted into glycogen and stored in the liver and muscles for later use as energy; or the liver can store it as fat—on your belly, thighs, and elsewhere. That’s why insulin is called “the fat-producing hormone.” From> Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution
Summarizing and Note Taking
Generalizations from research on Summarizing:
Generalizations from research on Note Taking:
1. To effectively summarize, students must delete some information, substitute some information, and keep some information.
2. To effectively delete, substitute, and keep information, students must analyze the information at a fairly deep level.
3. Being aware of the explicit structure of information is an aid to summarizing.
1. Verbatim note-taking is, perhaps, the least effective technique.
2. Notes should be considered a work in progress.
3. Notes should be used as study guides for tests.4. The more notes that are taken, the better.

Summary:
Carbohydrate
• eat carbs—blood sugar goes up and pancreas releases insulin
• in Islets of Langehans in pancreas, insulin produced to carry glucose to cells
• once in cells, 3 things can happen
a) energy
b) convert to glycogen and goes to liver and muscles for later
c) or liver can store as fat
• Insulin—fat producing hormone

Homework
Generalizations from Research on Homework:
1. The amount of homework assigned to students should be different from elementary to high school.
2. Parent involvement in homework should be kept to a minimum.
3. The purpose of homework should be identified and articulated.
4. If homework is assigned, it should be commented on.

2.Parent involvement in homework should be kept to a minimum.
“While it is certainly legitimate to inform parents of the homework assigned to their children, it does not seem advisable to have parents help their children with homework.”
“Specifically, many studies show minimal and even negative effects when parents are asked to help students with homework.

When your child has worked hard but cannot complete the assignment in a reasonable time, and you are thinking about sitting down and helping her…….STOP. Get out a piece of paper and write the teacher a note….
Dear Ms. Curie,
Sally has worked hard for one hour on this assignment and cannot complete it. I told her to stop and assured her that she had completed her homework for tonight. She doesn’t really understand how to read bar graphs yet so she can’t go on. Please let her know if there will be more instruction in class or if she needs to come in for extra help.

Homework Policies Issue: Purpose
Which do you prefer? Why?
What is most common? Why
You can expect homework each evening, Monday through Thursday. It is your responsibility to complete the assignments to be prepared for class the next day.
A
There often is just not enough time in class for each of you to study and practice what you are learning. When it seems that there is a clear need for further individual work beyond what we do in class, you will have homework.
For some learning goals, frequent homework might be assigned; for others, there might be no need for homework. When there is homework, it is your responsibility to complete the work and be prepared for class the next day.

If you do not do your homework, you will not be allowed to go to recess. You will work in the room until the work is completed.
You, and I, will keep track of whether you complete the homework and a homework completion grade will be 10% of your overall grade in Math.
You, and I, will keep track of whether you complete your homework. If your assessments indicate you are not progressing toward the learning goals, we will have a conference to determine why. If we decide one reason is that you have not been completing homework, we (and perhaps your parents) will figure out how to help you to complete your homework.

You know homework is causing stress when you hear YOUR CHILD say…
“I am sorry I can’t come out and play right now. I have to help my dad with my homework.”
Or when you hear YOURSELF say..
“Please stop your crying. This is how we did it when I was in school. It will be fine.”
