Taking a Risk in Planning the Number Sense Unit

Posted on August 15, 2022 By Amanda Younger No Comments on Taking a Risk in Planning the Number Sense Unit

Introduction  The idea of Intelligent Fast Failure resonated with me instantly, that giving students the opportunity to not only try but to fail allowed them to fully engage in the learning process. “Students who tried lots of ideas in a short period of time were going through a process of fast failure wherein each failed…

Innovative Planning Reflection

Posted on August 15, 2022August 15, 2022 By Amanda Younger No Comments on Innovative Planning Reflection

I currently teach grade 4 and have for the past four school years. When looking at my planning process in relation to my key words I have found some areas of strength and a few areas of weakness. Doing this activity helped me to highlight some focus areas for next year. I aim for a…

Division Unit with Technology

Division Unit with Technology

I have attached my grade 4 introduction to division unit. With all of my math units I like to focus on conceptual understanding first then move to the applications so my units are fairly slow paced in the beginning then pick up as we move along. I find that my students typically respond well to…

Planning a Class Party

Planning a Class Party

The lesson plan below uses an adaptation of Shelly Moore’s planning page. I really like her levels of participation for her success criteria and that there is something for everyone in that. I think the language in the “I need to, I must, I can, I could, I can try to” really gives students a…

Enhancing a Lesson

I have updated my lesson for using videos to show multiplication strategies. The first image is something I would have done last year in the same unit to have my students use technology capture and share their learning on their white boards and the video is what we are working towards this year.

Implementing Flip Grid

Posted on January 29, 2022January 29, 2022 By Amanda Younger No Comments on Implementing Flip Grid

I have to say I’m jealous of everyone who can use Flip Grid in your classrooms. My district has decided that it is not FOIPPA compliant due to some data being stored in the United States. I was able to connect with one of our elementary tech leaders and she has suggested using Microsoft Sway…

BC Coast Photos to Prompt Thinking

The photos above are personal and family photos that I use to engage students at the beginning of my Great Bear Rainforest and Salish Sea unit. I use two thinking routines with these images, “See, Think, Wonder” from Project Zero and “Observe, Wonder, Infer” from Reading Power. These images are unique set that my students…

Planning Cross Curricular Inquiry Units

Posted on July 29, 2021January 29, 2022 By Amanda Younger No Comments on Planning Cross Curricular Inquiry Units
Planning Cross Curricular Inquiry Units

I have created a presentation on how to create inquiry units. The presentation reflects my process and how I would present it in a workshop to other teachers. This presentation also sums up my learning over the past several weeks showing how I have deepened my understanding of using inquiry as a tool to get…
