Good Things
Remaining two speeches.
Finish/Review Self-Concept
Ask the students what we talked about yesterday? (Self-Concept) Have them define it? (Who we think we are) Ask them what are the 3 ways we develop our self-concept and give examples of each. (social experiences, social comparisons, and reflected appraisals) Finish explaining, reflected appraisals, by talking about it and having them write a journal about it (Write down some of the positive and/or negative things you think others are thinking about you.) Finish the discussion by asking them who is in control of your self concept if we get our self concept from others? (YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL ARE IN CONTROL).
Introduce Inch and Miles and the pyramid of success. Pass out a blank pyramid of success and have them follow along as I start reading "Inch and Miles The Journey to Success." Stop at Hard Work.
When we are finished, we will go to the computer lab to watch and grade speeches. Pass out 3 rubrics per person:
- Grade themselves
- Grade a peer
- Parents grade them
I need to be more creative when thinking about discussions to spark better discussion.
ReplyDeleteThe videoes wouldn't play on the computer (talked to the tech office already). Made a bad assumption. They worked on their tweet of the week and glog if they hadn't finished it yet.
