Basic Training 2010_Lesson A

This is the first of a multi-lesson unit to start the school year.  This first lesson introduces students to three simple rules to follow in class by inviting them to analyze images using TCI’s Visual Discovery strategy.  Other lessons will follow (posted soon) on topics of learning styles and cooperative learning, setting up an interactive student notebook, and automating everyday classroom procedures.  “Going Digital” suggestions are added to each lesson for teachers/schools that have access to various tech tools for students.

I posted this on facebook, but wanted to add this here.
I took the PDF file with me on my trip, and all I could say ato my wife was, “this is what I have been looking for, with 3 new history teachers this year I did not want to create a new lesson.” now I have a template to use that will work for me. thank you Brian for the help!

It says, “security loading document error” and the post will not come up. I would love to see it since I am getting ready to pass out my ISNs. Any suggestions?

If you are trying at school it might be blocked by your school’s internet filter. I cannot access it either.

Wow! I wish I had looked at this last week. I’ll be using this next year. Thanks!

This is so great – b/c it is also a great prelude to how history alive works in the classroom! thanks!

I would encourage you to access this via our Teacher Genius section… at the following URL: http://teachergenius.teachtci.com/basic-training-starting-the-school-year-right/ This link has the whole unit lessons A-D. If your school blocks blogs, you will need to access this at home. Hope everyone has a great start to the year!
