Every pupil response is a technique used to keep more kids involved in a lesson and also to help the teacher monitor understanding. One thing you can do is just ask kids to "put their thumbs up" if they agree and "thumbs down" of they don't. You can use pinch cards (which are simply index cards) labeled yes on the top and no on the bottom (or any other either or words) and kids hold them up with pinching them with their fingers on top of the answer they think is correct. I just saw a great use of them in K with our salad lesson. The teacher had popsicle sticks one side green for "thinking" and the other side red for "text" and the kids held up the color to represent what part of real reading they thought the teacher was using. What more do you want to know about lesson study/ how can I help you with this? Jennifer In a message dated 9/24/2007 9:48:52 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
Jennifer, As a newly appointed literacy coach for our corporation, I am interested in learning more about this model of professional development. Can you please elaborate on the "Every Pupil Response"? I must have missed that in previous emails. Thanks for sharing your expertise. Have a wonderful day!
