Using SEI Strategies in a SIOP Lesson Plan Fawn L. Stevens Grand Canyon University: ESL 533N February 17, 2014 The class is learning about Native Americans. I am working with their science, language arts and math teachers. All the other teachers are also discussing Native Americans in their classes. Today's lesson is about the Navajo Indians. The students will be conducting research in a small group setting on some basic facts about the Navajo Indians and presenting their findings to the class when they are done.
Materials: • Dinosaurs Before Dark (Book on CD) • Story Mapping with Annie worksheet • Post-it notes • Colored pencils or crayons 3. Standards: Students use spoken, written, and visual language to accomplish their own purposes (e.g., for learning, enjoyment, persuasion, and the exchange of information). Standard: 4.RF.4.a. – Read on-level text with purpose and understanding. Standard: 4.W.8.
A study of computer-assisted learning examined the learning of “Blissymbols" by children. Blissymbols are pictographs (think of Egyptian hieroglyphs) that are sometimes used to help learning-impaired children communicate. The researcher designed two computer lessons that taught the same content using the same examples. One lesson required the children to interact with the material, while in the other the children controlled only the pace of the lesson. Call these two styles “Active” and “Passive.” Children were assigned at random to Active and Passive groups.
This article compares the effects of a worksheet condition and an iPad condition on math fluency and active academic engagement during a high school math class. Three students with significant behavioral and mental health needs engaged in independent work either completing problems on a worksheet or an iPad. I found this article to be interested because

Students may also submit a Help Desk Ticket by clicking on the Help Desk link at the top of any class page, Help Desk Tickets are monitored on the same schedule as e-mail. Questions to the Help Desk should be technical in nature. Questions about classroom content and grades need to be directed to the instructor. Special Accommodations: If a student requires special accommodations based on a disability, the student must be registered with the Disability Support Services Office and must inform the teacher about the needed accommodations the first week of
This is the kind of mathematics that most parents and government officials recognize as the curricula that they attempted to learn when they were in school. It consists primarily of arithmetic or computation and it is about finding answers to questions such as “17 is what percent of 9,and so that it is all about “solving for x” and memorizing formulas. The question is what is constructivism and does it effect student in math courses? Constructivism inn math terms is intuition into the theory that mathematical entities do not exist independently of our construction of them . Basically its saying that math is expressed in a different way to children than how adults intake math information.
In mathematics learning with STEM approach that means insert elements of Science(S) - Technology(T) - Engineering(E) - into Mathematics(M), the application of students trained to think science (Science) then use technology such as computer, calculator, Internet, etc. (Technology) and using the skills of design in completing a project (Engineering). One example of the STEM application as a mathematical learning approach is on the material of trigonometric ratio. In the learning, students are given a project to measure a building. The teacher provides a worksheet that contains steps of workmanship.
