I trained the Science Department Head. I had her watch the
video I prepared for the Level 2 Badge. I chose this so that we could stop the
video and discuss. As we watched the video, I had her walk through the Guidebook
and mark pages. I emphasized the importance of the “Cue Do Review” sequence. We
discussed how she could use this as a review for a unit. I asked her to decide
on a topic that she would like to use and chose a time to meet.
At our second meeting, we created the routine together. I
used the guidebook to walk us through so that she would have a reference. I
completed the Concept Mastery Routine Device Checklist. A copy of the routine
is attached. She stated that she could see how it would help the students make
the connections in the concept but felt she would need to practice a couple of
times to make it flow. We picked a time
to implement with a class.
She chose to use her inclusion class which is not co-taught
but there is a special education teacher in the room for support. Since he was
not familiar with the routine, we were able to expose him to the routine and
hopefully he will want training next year. The routine worked very well for
this topic. She was able to review all the key points and have the students
complete organizer in the short class period. I completed the Implementation
Checklist
