exit slips for this week

thanks for your comments, everyone!

very constructive; the most important thing to note about them is that almost everyone is tired of theory and wants to get to lesson planning

so, after our presentations on Monday, I'm going to put you into pairs and ask you to analyze some hard copies of the IRP's I just downloaded (Communications 11/ 12; Eng Literature 11/ 12; Biology 11/ 12; Geography 8-10; Info Tech 8- 10). What specific classroom strategies would you choose from the IRP's and how would you adapt classroom activities to support our subject colleagues?

From there, let's do some lesson planning over the next couple of sessions.

If you have a specific IRP you would like to tear apart from an ESL perspective, please bring it on Monday. I have an older set (version 2) of IRP's on disc that I can bring along. The latest versions are on the web at http://www.bced.gov.bc.ca/irp/irp.htm

good weekend!
oh, I forgot to assign homework!
