Notas do Editor

  1. LearnZillion Notes:--This is your hook. Start with a question to draw the student in. We want that student saying, “huh, how do you do X?” Try to be specific as specific as possible.--You can fill in an example using the blue text or you can delete that text box and include some other image that explains what you’re talking about.
  2. LearnZillion Notes:--This is our lesson objective. Keep it as short and student-friendly as possible. Put what they will learn in green and then how they’ll learn it in blue. For example, “In this lesson you will learn how to find the main idea of a nonfiction article by reading over your notes and asking, “What is this article mostly about?”
  3. LearnZillion Notes:--Some lessons may build off of previous lessons. In those cases, it may be helpful to include one or more review slides. Use these slides to remind students of previous concepts you’ve taught in other lessons. --Feel free to move or resize the blue text box to fit your content.--Remember that you can add multiple “Let’s Review” slides if you need them or you can just delete this slide!
  4. LearnZillion Notes:--For some lessons it may be best to include a slide or two about “A Common Mistake.” These slides show students what mistakes to avoid so that they can follow the Core Lessons more easily.--Feel free to move or resize the blue text box to fit your content.--Remember that you can add multiple “A Common Mistake” slides if you need them or you can just delete this slide!
  5. LearnZillion Notes:--The Core Lesson will probably require more than one slide. You can add as many of these slides as you like. Simply click on “New Slide” and then select the Core Lesson template slide to add a new one.--Feel free to move or resize the blue text box to fit your content or just delete it!
  6. LearnZillion Notes:--The Core Lesson will probably require more than one slide. You can add as many of these slides as you like. Simply click on “New Slide” and then select the Core Lesson template slide to add a new one.--Feel free to move or resize the blue text box to fit your content or just delete it!
  7. LearnZillion Notes:--The Core Lesson will probably require more than one slide. You can add as many of these slides as you like. Simply click on “New Slide” and then select the Core Lesson template slide to add a new one.--Feel free to move or resize the blue text box to fit your content or just delete it!
  8. LearnZillion Notes:--We’ve added the steps at the end of your lesson for review. If your lesson didn’t require steps or if you don’t think they’re necessary, simply delete this slide!
  9. LearnZillion Notes:--This is the lesson conclusion. On this slide you’ll change your original lesson objective to past tense and explain what the student has just learned. You can retype it here or you can delete the text on this slide and then just copy and paste the text box from the original Lesson Objective slide and then edit it to make it past tense!
  10. LearnZillion Notes:--The “Guided Practice” should include an example that targets the skill that was used in the Core Lesson. Use the same vocabulary and process you used in the original lesson.
  11. LearnZillion Notes:--On the Extension Activities slide(s) you should describe 2-3 activities written with students as the audience (not teachers). Each extension activity should push the students a bit further with the lesson but in a different application or context. Each activity should be designed to take roughly 20-40 minutes. Teachers will likely display the slide in class and then assign an activity to a student or group for additional practice and differentiation. Ideally, these Extension Activities will be created such that a teacher can differentiate instruction by giving more difficult extension activities to students who have shown mastery of the lesson, and less difficult activities to students who are not yet proficient.--If you need more than one slide to list your extension activities, feel free to copy and paste this slide!
  12. LearnZillion Notes:--”Quick Quiz” is an easy way to check for student understanding at the end of a lesson. On this slide, you’ll include a way for teachers to quickly and authentically assess student understanding. That’s it! You won’t be recording a video of this slide and when teachers download the slides, they’ll direct their students through the example on their own so you don’t need to show an answer to the question.
