Note :
Good Afternoon,
This is evidence of a proPcient observation and a satisfactory 90-day evaluation. Great work! Your students have come SO FAR since last
year and the beginning of the school-year. They are on-task and ready to learn. Your lesson had all major components with ample
opportunity to practice and even self-assess!
Moving forward, be sure you plan your assessment Prst THEN plan your lesson methods. This will ensure that you model various
misconceptions and give students ample opportunity to practice prior to assessing their knowledge.
Keep up the great work!

11:42 AM
1st graders, knowing how to read a clock is a really fantastic thing. You can do lots of things by learning how to read a clock.
Can you think about why it might be a good reason to learn how to read a clock. I know how to read a clock and since I know
how to do that, I know what time my favorite tv shows comes on
11:42 AM
What are some other ways/reasons why it's important that we know how to read a clock

If you know how to read a clock, you're not going to be late to school.

An analog clock has an hour hand (long hand) and minute hand (or small hand)

The big hand is the minute hand and the small hand is the hour hand. The rest of the clock is called the face.

11:48 AM
We use clocks to measure time. WE use clocks to measure time. Now, let's look at a digital clock. This one is blank right now
and they are more common than analog clocks. A digital clock only has numbers. BUT a digital clock (writes 3:00 in purple)
but the minute and hour is still there
11:48 AM
11:48 AM
It has hour, and the second numbers are the minutes (labels)
11:48 AM
So, this time says "3:00" and this time says: "3:00"
11:49 AM
11:49 AM
Here's the very important thing to remember, the only time we say o'lock is when the big hand and minute hand is pointing
to the 12.

This is what we're going to do. Ms. GUs, i'm going to say: 3:00. you are going to, only when I say go, move the minute hand
and hour hand to the time that I say
11:57 AM
If I say 3:00, I move the minute and hour hand and it looks something like this
11:58 AM
Once you move your minute and hour hand, hold it to your chest like a secret.

the time needed to be
intellectually engaged.
Distinguished
Virtually all students are
intellectually engaged in
challenging content
through well-designed
learning tasks and suitable
scaOolding by the teacher
and fully aligned with the
instructional outcomes. In
addition, there is evidence
of some student initiation
of inquiry and of student
contribution to the
exploration of important
content. The pacing of the
lesson provides students
the time needed to
intellectually engage with
and reQect upon their
learning and to
consolidate their
understanding. Students
may have some choice in
how they complete tasks
and may serve as
resources for one another.

3d: Using Assessment in Instruction (SC 6)
N/A
This component was not

Unsatisfactory
There is little or no
assessment or monitoring
of student learning;
feedback is absent or of
poor quality. Students do
not appear to be aware of
the assessment criteria
and do not engage in selfassessment.
ProPcient
Basic
Assessment is used
sporadically by teacher
and/or students to support
instruction through some
monitoring of progress in
learning. Feedback to
students is general,
students appear to be only
partially aware of the
assessment criteria used
to evaluate their work,
and few assess their own
work. Questions, prompts,
and assessments are
rarely used to diagnose
evidence of learning.
ProAcient
Assessment is used
regularly by teacher and/
or students during the
lesson through monitoring
of learning progress and
results in accurate,
speciPc feedback that
advances learning.
Students appear to be

Assessment is fully
integrated into instruction
through extensive use of
formative assessment.
Students appear to be
aware of, and there is
some evidence that they
have contributed to, the
assessment criteria.
Students self-assess and
monitor their progress. A
variety of feedback, from
both their teacher and
their peers, is accurate,

learning. Questions,
