Agendas

According to the text, “an agenda is a personalized list of tasks that a particular student must complete in a specified time.”

How it works…

▪ The teacher develops an agenda and students either pick one up or are given one

▪ Students determine the order in which they will complete each agenda item

▪ Each student at the elementary school level “complete a daily planning log, which contains the student’s goals for the day toward completing agenda tasks.”

▪ If a student needs teacher assistance, he/she will sign up for a conference with the teacher that day

▪ Students work independently, in assigned groups/partnerships, or in groups/partnerships they have freely chosen

▪ Students AND teachers must initial each task on the agenda

▪ A new agenda is created when the first agenda is complete

Steps to create an agenda:

▪ Determine areas of strength and weakness within an individual unit

▪ Create a task list for students based on this information; be sure to design tasks which utilize the multiple intelligences

▪ Decide on a timeline for the task agenda completion

▪ Provide details/requirements for each task

Benefits of agendas:

▪ Allows time for the teacher to work with individual students or small groups

▪ Allows for differentiation according to tasks AND either heterogeneous or homogeneous grouping

▪ Allows time to observe students, informally assess progress, and alter instruction as necessary

▪ These can be used with block schedules OR at the middle/high school level either once a week, or as an “anchor” activity which can be worked on after all other work is completed

▪ Students have choice in the order in which they complete tasks and receive more responsibility from the teacher for their own learning

| |MODIFIED AGENDA BASED ON PRETEST AND SELF-ASSESSMENT | |

|Choose the station that you need the most support with based on your pretest score and self-assessment/reflection. |

|Check your answers at that station, and complete the extra practice if you need it. |

|If you feel confident and have less than 3 incorrect answers, you may move to another station. |

|Remember, a station may be REVIEW for you, so you may choose to only do 5 example problems and check your answers and then move on |

|to another category. It is not necessary for you to do all the problems if it becomes redundant or too easy for you! |

|If you have studied, showed mastery, and are confident, sign-up to take the check-up for your pronoun category. |

|If you receive less than a 90% on your checkup, you will be assigned back to the station and a one-on-one conference for review! |

|Once you have shown mastery on all stations, you may begin your 3 choice activities. |
