low parents my name is mistletoe the 7th grade SDC teacher I am pleased to say that I have talked to each and everyone of you before at least one and today's the open house presentation we'll get started with a second. My second earring is English and right now we're working on we're working on comparing and contrasting different medium basically what that means is or comparing different sources like for example a picture to a video or a video to a bunch of texts that you read or attach the tax a text or picture and it's what we do on right now cast covers is a bunch of reading instruction as well as I'm writing skills to help our students learn strategies to enhance their writing capabilities we also do some fluency reading so often times I'll have students read a certain passages passages as well as texts that are more accessible to them which means easier vocabulary not that meant not that long word and that's what we've been focusing on for the last couple of weeks I always try to interpret real life topics into my discussion so very often I will try to include pieces from real life for example this current unit that we're working on we are looking at Martin Luther King jr. and his civil rights speech which did to witchy used in 1969 1960s with the civil rights movement in these in these times I'm I want to make sure that the content that we are sitting is relevant to the studio especially when so many of them have question especially with the black lives matter movement and I want to make sure that are learning and has a meaning to it but that being said I wanted to show off some of my students examples that they have Libya produced within my classes as well as I'll highlight some pieces that indicate their work super example is when I'm to the left is that compare and contrast East that I was talking about the picture right here is of a Isabel Forest as well as a video that they could see and you'll see that the students were just passed with identifying similarities between the two as well as differences over here to the right you'll see that very tiny I think I might stop it I think just looking at it like this might help us better I just do men right here you'll see that this is a that piece what I'm talking about where that it comes in handy where the students are pasta reading a bunch of texts I helped him through the readings as well and then you'll see right here that they have to answer some questions after they're done reading and it's a lot of questions and ask them what what do you think about this it's a lot of questions that kind of get the ball rolling with in terms of my students thinking I always try to have them think outside the box and not just within the text and I was trying to put the situation in their shoes super example and makes a Johnny if you were in that situation what do you think how do you think you would react how do you think this because I feel like if you put them in that situation and they'll be able to come up with answers unique answers that I probably wouldn't have thought up and that's where that's where I'm that peace comes in and also let me zoom out real quick and you'll notice down here that many times I'll have my students support the answers that they find super example if they answer this is leasing a car better than buying it I have to have them find some evidence from the text and they'll be tasked with either finding the words highlighting it writing it down numerous ways for them to interact with the with our material and the last last part is that I wanted a highlight color code of my stuff color coding has worked tremendously in my classroom is easier to refer to what color than it is to just a box so I feel like my students are able to appreciate that as well as they're able to succeed when they're when they're both find things quicker this is just some of us. Some of the slices that we've been doing with in my classroom and I look forward to either answering your questions in the future or speaking with you on the phone with regards to what we're learning or you have any questions about your student thank you
