The "Classroom Examples" section features clips and full-class examples from our expert BMS teachers, showcasing the core elements of our learning model in action.
This video shows a group of students working on a shared document to prepare for a class discussion. The students are shown entering pros and cons on a shared protocol board. They are showcased typing, sharing their screens, and referencing various sources to gather information. The video captures the dynamic and interactive nature of this collaboration as they contribute thoughts and ideas to the document. Overall, it is a good example of teamwork and collective effort.
In the video, I facilitate a class discussion on colonizing Mars using a DOK 2 Frayer activity. The activity involves students creating a graphic organizer with four quadrants: two for pros and two for cons. As the students fill in the quadrants with information related to colonizing Mars, I guide the discussion by asking open-ended questions and encouraging critical thinking. This method helps students organize their thoughts and engage in meaningful dialogue about the challenges and possibilities of human colonization on Mars.
In this video, I introduce the guiding question "How do we determine the degrees of polynomials?" and explain the concept in a clear and engaging manner. I share a video that breaks down the process of determining the degrees of polynomials, providing examples and practical applications. After the video, I lead the class through a workbook activity that allows them to apply the concepts learned in the video and deepen their understanding through hands-on practice. The activity involves analyzing various polynomials and determining their degrees, equipping the students with a solid grasp of the topic.
