PLANOur learning target for this week:Our learning target for this week:

Understand congruence and similarity usingphysical models, transparencies, or geometry

software.Our measure of proficiency:

A score of 80 or better out of 100 points on Friday’s Quick Quiz means we understand congruence and

similarity.

DOStrategy of the Week: - Learning Teams

Miss. B...• Demonstrate using models.• Give us several examples.• Let us work in teams.Students...· Sort/classify numbers in scientific notation with those in

standard notation.· Create a Frayer Model for scientific notation.· Create a team ACE to check for understanding of scientific

notation.

+Strengths of our

learning cycle

∆Changes we need to

make next week

· The examples helped.· We really like working

in teams.· Miss T’s explanations

were very complete· It was fun using the

hula hoops to sort and classify numbers!

· We need create some guidelines for how to work better as a team.

· Miss T needs to keep the examples simple!

· Didn’t get the Frayer thing

OUR ACTION PLANWe studied our results for 9/1 to 9/5.

__We improved. ____ We did not improve.In the next learning cycle our teacher will:· Let us work with her to develop a rubric for good

learning team work. · Keep her explanations short, sweet, simple and to

the point!· Give us another chance at the Frayer Model.

In the next learning cycle students will:· Ask questions when we don’t understand something· Use the team rubric.
