Engaging Students in Learning
Bag TalkPresenters:Alaka DasBarbara Ferrante
ObjectivesParticipants will engage in learning activities that: • Promote student engagement
• Provide “multiple entry points” for students
• Encourage students to reflect on what they have done and what they have learned
“Sticky” Self- Assessment
1. I can promote student engagement.
2. I can provide multiple entry points for students.
3. I can encourage students to reflect on what they have done and what they have learned.
Agenda• “Sticky” Self Assessment
• “Bag Talk” with Addition Strategies
• Problem Solving
• “Bag Talk” with 3c
• Implications for Instruction

Addition Strategies “Bag Talk”
In Groups of 4:
1. Choose a “strategy” card.2. Think about the addition strategy
represented on the card.3. Take notes on the post-it behind the
card.4. Take turns explaining the strategy
to your group. (Be prepared to ask and/or answer questions about the strategy)
5. Return cards to the bag.

From Chapter 7 - Page 198Solve using at least 2 strategies
One strategy you know very well and one you just learned from the bags
Solve using at least 2 strategies
Share with a partner:1. One strategy you used2. Why you chose the strategy3. How the strategy helped you
After Partners Share:Discuss with partner how the strategies you shared were alike and/or different
Whole Group Share:Teacher chooses students to share (Scaffold)
Bag TalkHow did “Bag Talk” help you solve the problem?
At Your Table:1. Discuss2. Write your response on a post-it3. Place post-it on outside of the
bag.(Write your name on back of
post-it.)
Bag Talk About 3cIn Groups of 4:1. Choose a card.2. Reflect on the sentence or phrase
(refer to the text and today’s learning)3. Share your thoughts with your group.4. Write a statement on a post-it that
synthesizes all of your groups’ thoughts.5. Sign your names on the post-it.6. Place the post-it on the outside of the “Bag.”
How did today’s strategies “Engage” Students? (from 3c)
1. Students are developing their understanding through what they do. 2. A lesson usually has a discernible structure: a beginning, a middle, and an end, with scaffolding provided by the teacher or by the activities themselves. 3. Students are encouraged to reflect on what they have done and what they have learned 4. It is essential that students be challenged to be “minds-on.”
Implications for Instruction
• What was the purpose of synthesizing the 4 statements and placing the post it on the bag?
• How could you use today’s learning in your classroom?
• How could you use “Bag Talk” with last week’s Close Read (“Eleven”)?
Revisit “Sticky” Self- Assessment
1. I can promote student engagement.
2. I can provide multiple entry points for students.
3. I can encourage students to reflect on what they have done and what they have learned.
