Framing Routine completed on July 19, 2017

I attended the Framing Routine training during the summer co-teaching institute in Richmond. The framing procedure will be a valuable tool to use in the classroom across all subject areas. This strategy helps to break down complex or abstract ideas into manageable parts. It gives the learner a clear visual of the materials being taught and helps them to organize important ideas. This routine can be differentiated to meet the needs of all students and can be used for all subjects. The flexibility of this routine is amazing. I particularly like all the different formats that can be found at the back of the book. There are also additional activities that use this routine, my favorite being the "Gotcha" game.  I have only used this strategy for history and reading lessons, but I plan on implementing it across all curriculum.

Judith Fontana came from GMU to meet with me on Sept 28.  We reviewed the different formats to a FRAME, how a FRAME can fit into both review and instruction, and how students can contribute to creating and using a FRAME.

I enjoyed learning the Framing routine and look forward to implementing it in English classes this school year to enhance student learning.  I am especially excited to use the framing routine when teaching pre-writing in order to help students to brainstorm and organize information prior to writing their rough drafts.  I will be implementing this strategy early in the school year and will continue to utilize it as we prepare our students for their reading and writing SOL's.

Training was September 21, 2017. It seems to mirror our 5 box graphic organizer that students use.

Marie EckenrodeFraming Routine ReflectionSeptember 22, 2017
I found that using the framing routine for the first time was highly successful and helpful in teaching the main idea and detail skills to my first grade inclusion class yesterday.  After reading and viewing pictures and text in a poster from our new reading program, we completed our first frame.  I had planned to do so using our SmartBoard. However, the lamp in our projector stopped working during the morning announcements.  We quickly improvised and made our frame on our rolling easel.  We began by introducing the frame and what the sections stand for.  Then we began with the topic, light sources.  The “is about” section gave a definition of what light is.  The students did well understanding the concepts of the main ideas: natural and artificial light.When it came time to complete the essential details under the main idea the sun was the first choice.  They remembered it being mentioned in the poster and new that from prior background knowledge.  It took a few hints discussing day and night but then they were able to think of some more.  One student came up with lightning. I was happy to see that extension of thinking because it’s not a source of light that we see every day.  Artificial sources of light seemed to be a  bit easier for them to come up with ideas.  Lightbulbs, fire and candle were listed in the frame.  They also came up with several additional things that have fire, such as fireworks, sparklers, firepits,etc.  I like how this frame brings everything together at the end so the students can see the importance of the concept and bring thebig picture together.  They knew that light is important because it helps us to see.  Without it our lives would be very difficult.

Frame Reflection

The framing routine not only gives students an organized way to take notes about a topic but it also includes the so what? section giving students a purpose for learning.  I think the frame is a valuable tool for students in all subject areas.

I participated in the Adobe Meeting for our SIM training on the FRAME on Thursday, August 24, 2017

Our students will benefit greatly from constructing Frames on curriculum topics.  The Frame will help them understand new key topics and what is important about them. ThenIt allows them to build a foundation for learning more information at a deeper level.  I like how in training, we chunked the graphic organizer.  We divided the Frame into three manageable sections.  I plan on doing it that way with my students.  It is vital to create these Frames with our students.  This interactive process is conducive to purposeful class discussions.  Framing is a simple, yet powerful tool.
