High – Medium-Low Chart Revision Notes
********
General notes:
Look for judgments you may have written (typically negative). Reword to be statements of observation.
No copping out with “nothing”. I challenge you to find something.
Column: Data and information (If circled, you need to add by next class.)
Data examples: WASL scores, DRA scores, grades, observations, etc.
Info examples: demographic info, parent info, ELL, etc.
Middle columns:
Complete areas that are brief or don’t follow descriptions below AND look for and address my notes written in these areas
Make clear separation between engagement and motivation.
Engages = football, music, creative stories
Motivates = love languages, praise, recognition, food, competition, getting attention
Remember that kids who are showing off are getting a need met. What is it?
Instructional Implications:
Refers to: data, interests, motivation, and behavior.
Make the link between middle columns and instruction. Be sure you use the interests and motivation not just the misbehaviors to complete this section.. Can use bullets/shorthand to do this.
Be specific. So, if a kid is engaged by movies, what can you do in instruction to take advantage of that? Can you reference movies? Show movie clips in a particular unit? Use movie posters for something? Use examples in your work from movies? Ex. Movies – use clips w/lit circle intro
