Warm Up Activity (WTL, Discussion Board, Marzano Strategy)

Choose one of the Big Nine we have studied in January or February. Make connections to the CIF, the three Classroom Principles, the video and the strategy of your choice. Reflect on these connections in relationship to implementation with students. Use the Discussion Board for this page, to record your thoughts and ideas. We will review each post and add comments.

Objective: **To connect the Classroom Principles with Marzano's strategies; Providing Feedback, Providing Recognition, and Reinforcing Effort, and Cues, Questions, and Advance Organizers.**

Guiding Questions: How will the Classroom Principles affect your use of technology with this strategy?

Group Activity

Each group will review an assigned strategy and create a presentation/visual for the strategy. Presentations must include a ranking by importance of the Recommendations and Generalizations for the strategy, connections of the strategy to the 3 Classroom Principles, and implementation of the strategy with students. The Strategies Summary will be used as groups report out.
