These are a listing of hastags that I use to catagorize my lessons plans. Each catagory represents a different style lesson plan. My instructional goal is typically to make sure that I use each hashtag at least once a month. The goal of this blog is to share all the lesson plans that I use under each hashtag.
My detailed lesson plans are my Keynote slides. But along with those, I make a quick, calendar-style overview to me a general idea of what I am doing. It’s on this calender where I place the hashtags at the bottom of each day. This allows me to quickly look back at what I have been doing, and know whether of not I am differentiating. For example, here is two weeks worth of my lesson plans in geometry. Notice that I can quickly see whether or not I have differentiated my instruction, without having to analyze each specific lesson plan. The hashtags allow me to get a quick sense of what I have been doing, and what I have not been doing.
