Jefferson High School - Critical Reading and Note Taking
Compass Points (North, South, East and West)
This is a great activity for educators and students to explore a set of preferences which relate to not individual but group behaviors, helping us to understand how preferences affect our group work. Click the button below for instructions. Last week AVID Campus Coordinator explored their compass points.
North
Acting - "Lets do this!" Likes to act, try things and plunge in.
West
Paying attention to detail - Likes to know the who, what, when, where and why before taking action
South
Caring - Likes to know that everyone's feelings have been taking into consideration and their voices have been heard.
Team Building - Mystery Student
Mystery Student is a fun, social game that enables students to learn about their peers and discover similarities. Rather than focus on the entire class, this activity allows one student to be the focus of the class for a brief period.
Focused Note Taking Dance
Students at CAST Tech created and performed their own dance moves to the Focused Note Taking Process. Check out their video below.
Brainstorming Carousel
This strategy builds upon shared knowledge within a group, identifies common themes and and pinpoints common misconceptions. This collaborative structure allows participants to build upon knowledge with interaction and collaboration. Last week, Campus Coordinators participated in a Brainstorming Carousel as they took a closer look at the Systems Domain of the CCI. They identified roadblocks and solutions in each of the sub-domains.
