12:15 Welcome and Introductions

12:30 Data collected in regard to 2nd semester team building

Writing to Learn Activity TOPIC WRITE Give students a topic or subtopic or have students create a list of topics studied during a unit. They are to write EVERYTHING they can remember or have experienced about that topic. Provide an article or "answer key" to the students or they can return to their notes and/or materials used in class. Students will match their writing to the answer key and make adjustments.

Discuss with your partner/group: How will you adjust your use of the WTL stratgey with your students?

Today, sometime during your exploration, please stop and write about what you are learning about the tool being explored and/or how it might be used with students. Please post your writing to the Discussion Board for this page. This can be a group writing, be sure to include everyone's names.
