06-10-2014 The two things that I found helpful today is the jigsaw classroom that I can use in my classroom where students get in groups to learn concepts. The second thing that I learned was the team based learning where I have used in the past but I now have a better understanding of the concept. The literacy strategy that I learned today that I will use in my classroom in the historical chunking material. My group made a visual aid poster where we talked about how you can scaffold material for your students. My group decide that historical chunking the materials through chronological chunking, presidential, decades, eras, and events were ways students could scaffold the concepts/material that we want them to learn. We also said that materials could be scaffold by the cause and effect method and showing students how the material that they are learning affects them. I am learning many new things in this workshop as well as learning how to improve on things that I already use.
