Case: The Upside-Down Model
In today's classrooms, we want to teach students to become self learners and discover the knowledge they have within. One way to do this is the Upside-Down model. This is also called the "You-We-I" method. Using this method, you give students a problem or task that you haven't taught and see if they can use prior knowledge to figure it out. I really like this model because it shows me what students know before teaching. I also like to see the strategies they use while working. The hard part for me is keeping those students that don't know where to begin or that don't know it so they won't do it on task. How do I keep these students engaged in the activity?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
For students that do not have any prior knowledge I would have hint cards for them to come get. Hint cards would give words, phrases, or pictures that help students to get an idea of what the topic is about. They would then write down what they think the topic could be about based on the hint cards using them as a reference and to support their reasoning. |

Comments: I think having hint cards would be a good idea to use, plus they could keep it for when you do teach the lesson and they can look back to their prior knowledge. |
