21. S-n-o-w-y S-N-O-W-Y is a scaffold for helping you to choose the best tools for your lesson, considering all the important features. S-N-O-W-Y is NOT a lesson plan. Its just a way to think about making decisions and considering all the necessary elements. Standard Needs Options What? whY?
22. CASE: Mr. Jackson Mr. Jackson teaches a high school social studies. One thing he notices is that student opinions are often formed by media propaganda and parent perceptions, in particular, terrorism and 9/11. He wants his students to understand the role of past historical events on more recent terrorism efforts. He decides to use this content to address several of his social studies objectives. He teaches 9th and 12th grade social studies courses, so trying to figure out ways to incorporate this topic in each class can be difficult.

My students will do their case artifact proposals in google docs.
How you would decide if to use these tools, when to use these toolsYou know they are out there, how do you decide how to use them? You can pick one specific one if that helps…
Two topics – how to write an observable objective.2. Decision making process for choosing tools
Start with the end in mind. Once you know what you want to do, we’re going to start with that first.
Well-written objective has three parts.Performance: Criteria: How you tell if they learned it or not.Given the ABC blocks, the students will be able to place these blocks in alphabetical order, with 100% accuracy.Conditions: BLOCKSPerformance: PLACE BLOCKES IN ALPHABETICAL ORDERCriteria: 100% ACCURACYGiven a blank map of the USA, students will write the names of the states, getting at least 40 out of 50 correctGiven the appropriate scientific tools, students will correctly identify the volume of an irregular solid within 10 mL.
The performance part is where we get a little bit picky.You actually have them do something so you can tell whether or not they can do it correctly. How can you tell? Make sure it’s observable – something you can show them.Use any of these bad verbs.

Make sure it’s observable – something you can show them.Don’t use any of these bad verbs – that don’t specifically state something that’s observable.
