Read about Mind Frame 6.  After you have read about the mind frame, complete the activity at the bottom of the page in your Zombie Survival Guide.  

Key Question:  How do you know that you and your students are in the learning zone and not in the comfort zone?  

Guiding Questions:  How do you communicate what success will look like to students?  How do you plan for all students to be able to participate in the learning?  What does an engaged, on task classroom sound like?  What does it look like?  

It is the role of the teacher to determine how to engage students in the challenge of learning.  Learning intentions and criteria have to be set and presented in a way that students can understand these expectations.  Students must be able to see that the challenge is critical to their success in learning.  

Questions to Guide a Learning Challenge

• What do I want students to say and do at the end of this lesson? 

• How will I know that students have mastery? 

• How will students know that they have mastery? 

• What supports do I need to provide to ensure students know where to look for help if it is needed?
