Activity
• Think of the ideal classroom
• In small groups of 3 or 4, on paper design a classroom that would encourage active learning and stimulate student socialization
• Select a “spokeperson”
• Be prepared to share with others

Classroom Context
• bulletin boards reflect themes or topics
• the classroom layout affects types of interactions
• invites thinking, reading, writing, speaking, listening, and sharing
• encourage socialization
• encourages interactive learning

Text Lessons
Thematic Unit
•All students are reading the same text
•Lessons provide structure
•Departure from an exclusive focus on the text
•Central themes and frees students to pursue questions that intrigue or puzzle them

Vocabulary and Concepts
Chapter 5
![Page 17: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
… means giving students multiple opportunities to learn how words are conceptually related to one another in the material they are studying
Teaching words.. Vocabulary related to their content area
![Page 18: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Concepts• learned through direct, purposeful experiences
• create mental images .. grouped by common features or criteria
• do not stand alone... are bound by a hierarchy of relationships
![Page 19: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Making Connections w/Graphic Organizers • a chart that visually represents concepts and their
relationships to other concepts (activates prior knowledge)

Constructing Graphic Organizers
• analyze the vocabulary
• arrange the list of words to show the relationships
• evaluate the organizers .. Does it do what it is suppose to do?
• model for students
• relate new information where it seems appropriate
![Page 22: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Activating What Students Know About Words
• Word exploration• Brainstorming• List-Group-Label• Semantic Word Maps• Word Sorts• Knowledge Ratings
![Page 23: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Word Explorationa writing to learn strategy
… writing quickly and spontaneously about the word..drawing prior knowledge from their schema
… students share… teacher makes connections between students “ideas” and the actual concept
![Page 24: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Brainstorming… students generate what they know about a subject
Two basic steps
-- teacher identifies key concept
-- students work in small groups to generate words related to concept
![Page 25: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
List-Group-Label… uses lists of words from brainstorming
… students divide into groups and discuss the words dividing the words into “categories”
… students make predictions about the content to be studied
![Page 26: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Semantic Word Maps… used to visually show the relationships among words
... Teacher/student decide on concept
… relalted terms and phrases are added
… teacher models the creation several times for students.. students create their own
![Page 27: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Word Sorts… students classify words into categories based on prior knowledge from lists provided by teacher
… promotes inductive reasoning; students must search for meanings and discover relationships in order to categorize them
![Page 28: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Knowledge Ratings… students analyze what they know about a topic
... chart is created with vocabulary words in a survey like form and students are asked to analyze the words
![Page 29: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Reinforcing/Extending Vocabulary Knowledge and Concepts
• Semantic Feature Analysis (SFA)• Categorizing Activities• Concept Circles• Context-Definition Related Activities
![Page 30: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Semantic Feature Analysis (SFA)
… establishes a relationship between student’s prior knowledge and words that are conceptually related to one another
…SFA grid..topic or category written across top; features or properties written down the left side;students respond Y or N to indicate association exists.
![Page 31: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Categorization Activities…determine relationships among technical terms
… students given four to six words per grouping and asked to do something with them
cross out what doesn’t belong….cicle what goes together..etc...
![Page 32: Reading in the Content Area 604 P Session 4. Bringing Students and Texts Together Involves plans and practices that result in active student engagement.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56649e0e5503460f94af860e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Concept Circles…help students relate words conceptually one to another
