=** CFF Boot Camp **= =** Model Lessons **= =** Cohorts 1 & 2 **= The primary outcomes are that participants understand what the ISTE NETS and 21st Century rigorous teaching and learning looks like in practice. Secondary outcomes include the opportunity to network with CFF coaches. Pre lessons: participants review ISTE NETS-T and lesson guides – discuss what does a lesson look like? Model Lessons: Participants rotate through 4 lessons. Teacher provides overview of unit or lesson Participants create strategies and discuss how they would participate in lesson Teacher and participants discuss how lesson plays out in their classroom Teacher takes questions and provides answers Groups rotate to next lesson Debrief: Groups return to their tables and review NETS-T and lesson guides, discuss what they experienced in the lessons and how it fits with tools. Discuss: How they can use tools and lessons learned to assist teachers in creating lessons. Reporting out and final wrap up: of groups and discussion with teachers in panel. · Use 7 breakout rooms and the main cohort 1 &2 large group room for a total of 8 stations (or only use 4 rooms) · 2 or 1 English, math, science and social studies lessons at each site. · Two tables will be paired and circulate to 4 of the 8 stations together. (Organizers will need to label tables to indicate pairings). · Audible cue tells folks to circulate to the next station. · Do they need rubric or set of questions to guide them through the Learning Stations? Could be intimidating to teachers. · Teachers are invited to share a lesson that exemplifies CFF practice.The ideas shown need to be **easily replicated** and not necessarily focused on a project but the activity of teaching and then explaining why it illustrates a NETS (S and/or T) standard or is connected to lesson guide. · Presenters will have 10-15 min. and present 4 times (total of 1-1.5 hours allowing time to change between presentations), engaging participants in an activity as though they are the students and leaving time for explanation of standards connections. · Presenters become panelists at the final wrap up to answer questions about what it takes professional development-wise, tech-wise and so forth for implementation to make their teaching replicable, scalable, and sustainable.

You many invite your CFF coach to assist you with the presentation and discussion.
