2009+Summer+Book+Discussion

by Carol Ann Tomlinson and Jay McTighe
As we continue next year to create UbD units of study, this gem of a book will not only assist us with this process, but also guide us in the challenge of differentiating instruction for all students. During the summer, we will have ongoing discussions right here on this wikispace. Just click on the discussion tab at the top of this page. You may participate in a variety of ways. The schedule below will allow you time to read a few chapters and then post your questions, thoughts, and comments. As others join the discussion, you may respond directly to their posts. This will be an ongoing discussion and participants may go back to any postings throughout the summer to add their thoughts. For those of you who do not feel you have the time to fully participate, you may check into the discussion at any point to get a feel for the book. (Think of it as Cliffs Notes)

Chapters 4 through 6 Discussion **began**  August 3rd
