How would prior experience have been assessed?
- Teacher will asses prior knowledge through a Quickwrite and students will respond in their daily journals.Journals will be typed in a word document and images added to reflect their responses. Questions will include: What is your favorite food and why?,What does it mean to be healthy?,What do you know about the food pyramid?, and What does healthy look like to you?
What would you expect to learn from assessing your students' prior knowledge?
- I would expect to learn what they already know about the food pyramid. I also, would be gaining insight into their personal opinions and perceptions about health and societies image relating to it, as well as learning more about their interest such as their favorite food.
How would this information be useful in the planning process?
- This information is useful because I can adapt my lesson according to what students need to learn and take out any content that they have already mastered. This also, helps to give me insight into how children today view weight/health and see if these perceptions have changed from when I was younger. As a teacher, I can also use their interests and incorporate them in the classroom to help motivate students.
