SUMMER INSTITUTE
SUNDAY July 8th, 2012 9:00
What do you want to do and what do you want to accomplish? Meet everyone at the conference. New ideas, relaxing. Staying in contact with the teachers who were in the first cycle workshop, so I am looking for ideas on how to do this, while running the cycle 2 workshops.
Everyone put stickies on the wall with their goals.
New Vision.

KETI Papava Classroom management
Need a clear target and you need practice. Scrunch the paper and throw in box. And the box kept moving.

Where am I supposed to sit?
What will be doing this year?
How will I be graded?

Auditory -- Drills students on the pronunciation
Kinesthetic – touching feeling the objective
Guessing the answer…. Hidden in a glass case…
Onion Circles:
Hands out one pink colored slip of paper to one person on each the paper. Write down any nationality that you want. Then give a green slip of paper to one of the people at the table. Come to the front of the room and stick the paper to your clothes. Form a circle.
Greet each other in a Japanese way. Then greet the person in a Georgian way. Move step to the right. Imagine you are American people. Imagine you are British people. Imagine that you are from India.
Imagine that you are from Alaska…you are an Eskimo.
Key to creative use of material: Find the right approach and to have a back=up to the back=up (one learning style approach might not be enough. Kinesthetic learning style.

Writing Workshop – ELTT Judy Elliott
Descriptive, Informatory/Explanatory, Narrative, Cause and Effect, Characteristics, Problem and Solution
Characteristics of Effective Writing Topics/Characteristics of a Good Writing Prompt Topic
- Participants posted topic under each specific heading, reflecting on the nature of the rhetorical style or topic.
Microteaching - group work – categorizing and summarizing readings into writings, creating and using effective rubrics (Volunteerism module 6)
- The Sami People, A Message for the Inca King, Chinese Silk, and Professor Hamid and the Lost City
- Each group micro-taught their lesson plan and discussed their rubric.
After lunch, we finished micro-teaching .
Holistic scoring of Student essays:
Teachers evaluated actual student compositions in groups according to a rubric designed for the topic on: What are two environmental problems that exist in your community and what are two solutions that students your age could do in order to solve these problems.
3 teams evaluated 5 essays and 2 teams evaluated 4 essays. The group scores were compared between group. [Clarification of grading procedures was needed….total of points over three areas: Task Fulfillment, Structure and Accuracy.]
Younger Learners: Strategies:
Matching of pictures with words; using flash cards; fill in the missing letters. Story telling with pictures. How the elephant’s nose became long. Exercise to break up the class: hands up, hands down, stand up, sit down.
