Looking At Lesson Design From A Different Perspective… 5 -E Instruction Model The 5 -E model is the GPISD initiative for designing a lesson that emphasizes the active role of the learner(s) in building understanding and making sense of the world. The teacher sets up problems, monitors student exploration, guides student inquiry, and promotes new patterns of thinking.

Today’s Objective: To become familiar with the 5 -E instructional model and understand the reasons for it being a GPISD initiative. Today’s Product: Participants will create a foldable containing the definition, teacher role and specific activities pertaining to each of the 5 E’s. Learning Goals: – Review or learn the parts of the 5 -E Instruction Model. – Experience a 5 -E lesson with special emphasis on the essence of each E. – Become familiar with components of 5 -E Instructional Model and strategies used for implementation.

Using the illustrations below, can you list the name of each “E” and describe it’s focus? E Engage Explore E Elaborate E Explain E Evaluate E

What is 5 -E History? 5 -E Model is based on the SCIS Model of Instruction by researchers Atkins and Karplus in 1967. 5 -E Model was originally proposed by BSCS (Biological Science Curriculum Study) in the late 1980’s. 5 -E Model became a GPISD initiative in 2007 and continues to be the framework for lesson design that include strategies for active learning, student engagement and specific instructional focus, based on data analysis.

The 5 -E Foldable Materials Needed: 1 sheet of card stock 5 strips of paper 1 Marker Make a foldable to capture thoughts about 5 -E model. 1. Label each of 5 strips with each of the 5 -E’s, near the top. Evaluate Elaborate Explain Explore Engage 2. Fold the cardstock to create a display tray. 3. Add important information to each strip, then display on tray. Engage Definition: • Generate Interest • Access prior knowledge • Frame the idea Teacher: -Creates interest -Raises questions -Encourages responses Activities: - Asks questions - Demonstrates interest - Connects concepts Engage

Activity – Explore � Form groups (3 per group) � Select team members 1 person to provide the force 1 ruler reader 1 data recorder Materials Needed: 1 button 1 straw 1 ruler � You will have 10 seconds to see how far you can force your button to move from one end of your table to the other, using only wind through a straw. � You may not touch the button with your straw. � Estimate your distance in cm. � Test, then measure your distance in centimeters. This activity is from CSCOPE 3 rd Grade Unit 3 - Investigating Forces Lesson 1, with some modifications.

On foldable… Explain description: Analyze exploration Communicate New Understandings Understanding is clarified and modified through a reflective activity Concepts, processes or skills become plain, comprehensible and clear Define terms relative to the learning

Explain: Teacher Roles Encourage the students to explain concepts and definitions in their own words Ask for clarification and justification (evidence) Provide definitions, new words, and explanations Use students’ previous experiences as basis for explaining concepts

Explain -Activities Student Analysis & Explanation Demonstration with Student Talk Supporting Ideas with Evidence Graphic Organizers – Thinking Maps Structured Questioning, Reading and Discussion Teacher Further Questions or Explains connections Thinking Skill Activities: compare, classify, summarize, error analysis, and interprets

Activity – Explain Freeze Tag Answers: When the music begins, stand up and walk around the room. When the music stops, pair up with someone closest to you. One person answer the first question, the other answer the second. When the music begins again, walk around. When the music stops, pair up and continue the same pattern with the next two questions. When the music starts, return to your seat.

Activity – Explain Compare the estimated, and actual, measurements recorded in the button activity. 2. Describe the force that was used to make the button move. 3. Explain how friction and gravity affect the movement of your button? 4. How could you change your experiment to make the button move along the table faster than before? 1.

On foldable… Elaborate (Extend) description: Expand solidify student thinking Apply new learning to a new or similar situation Provide reasonable conclusions Use new information in a real-world situation. Extend and explain concept being explored Communicate new understanding with formal academic language

Activity – Elaborate Talk with your group�How could you make a toy car move along the table, using the wind through a straw? �Compare the difference between the amount of force used to make the button move, to the amount of force needed to move the car. �Using the terms – greater than, less than, gravity, force of wind, increased mass, and friction – describe the science behind making the toy car move faster than the button.

Activity – Elaborate Using the acquired knowledge about the force of wind, share with your elbow partner some observations you have made from looking at the pictures above. What explanation can you provide for the second picture, based on your reasonable conclusions?

On foldable… Evaluate description: Shows evidence of accomplishment Allows the teacher to assess student performance and/or understandings of concepts, skills, processes, an applications. Demonstrate understanding of new concept by observation or open-ended response. Student is demonstrates evidence of understanding.

Evaluate: Teacher Roles �Observe the students as they apply new concepts and skills �Assess students’ knowledge and/or skills �Look for evidence that the students have changed their thinking or behaviors �Encourage students to assess their own learning �Ask open-ended questions, such as: – Why do you think …. ? – What evidence do you have regarding …. ? – What do you know about …. ? – How would you explain …. ?

Evaluate Activities scored using a rubric Performance assessment Produce a product Journal entries Peer Feedback Response Problem-based Learning Scenarios Portfolio Bloom’s Higher Level Questioning

Types of Questions Measuring & Counting: How many? How long? How much? Comparison (for sharper observation): In how many ways are _______ alike and how do they differ? Action: What happens if you ……. . ? …get caught in a tornado while driving a car? Problem-posing (more sophisticated, follows exploration & understanding, not a good first question): Can you find a way to… capture the objects caught in a tornado? Can you find evidence of other forces in nature? How can you construct a building that will withstand the speeds of wind in a tornado? Can you make a machine that works from the force of wind generated by a tornado’s storm?

Activity – Evaluate Using the rubric for criteria reference, create a Power. Point game focused on “forces of nature”. Share with your table group. Use peer scoring sheet after you play the game, then tally the points awarded the game creator to get their grade.
