DOK in our Instruction
Jennifer Liles - Head Start Kids at DOK 2 & 3 |
Getting a Head Start on DOK
Every day in Jennifer Liles' HeadStart class instruction always begins with a DOK 2 or 3 question. Here is what she does.
Each day since the first day we arrived at school we have
been counting the days we are in school. This year I am using not only the
100's chart but also a puzzle that has 100 pieces. Every morning we add a
puzzle piece to the board. Students will then predict what the puzzle is going
to be. With each day that goes by, the puzzle is revealed and their predictions
change.

Writing and Reading Strategies
This is a great video where Kelly Gallagher tells teachers why kids must write far more than we can read and why they must read more than we can physically assess. http://ow.ly/CdxXK

The FFA and classroom
instruction are both parts of the 3-part Ag Education model. The Agricultural
Education model is made up of Supervised Agricultural Experiences, FFA
Leadership, and Classroom excersises. When combined, we create students
prepared for jobs that don't even exist yet, with work ethic and real life experiences
in their chosen career paths.
The National FFA Organization is dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.

We have a junior FFA
program that allows students to begin their supervised agricultural experience
programs earlier, starting in the 3rd grade.
Contact Jessica Rymel or Chris Tondre at THS for more information on this great College & Career Readiness program. They are our new Agriculture teachers and are doing a fantastic job getting kids plugged in.
