Student Feedback Power!
Ms. Akaydin's classes practice giving feedback to each other
Teaching Feedback Norms
Why should formative feedback come only from the teacher? Teach students how to give specific, timely, supportive feedback to each other! This way, they know if they are on the right track to mastering the content while there is still time to do something about it.
So, how did we do it?
FIRST
Make it meaningful. Learning target explains what feedback is, why it's important, and success criteria for student practice giving it:)
SECOND
Anchor beginning thinking in Background Knowledge
THIRD
Ms. Akaydin and Ms. Cox role play effective and ineffective feedback conversations while students notice, note, and evaluate as they share out.
Then students get to practice with a text while Ms. Akaydin and Ms. Cox confer and catch brilliant feedback conversation!
SO DID THEY GET IT?
Ms. Akaydin designed an exit slip to see if students could name effective and ineffective feedback plus give examples.
AND SHE CREATED AN ANCHOR BULLETIN BOARD SO STUDENTS COULD USE THIS THINKING AND LEARNING AGAIN!
Plus, kids think it's super cool to see their brilliance anchored in "public!"
