Additional explanation of purpose (optional): type here

Type of session: Teacher-Paced Student-Paced
Identification of students:
Students will log-in so their individual scores will be available to you after the session
SRS Activity will be anonymous
Briefly describe what will happen during the SRS Activity (For example: What will students
do? What will teacher do? What materials are needed? How long will the SRS activity take?):
Students will use their device of choice and log onto www.quizlet.com. Here, they will review
basic additon practice using the study modes provided for them ranging from flashcards to
interactive games. The teacher will one-by-one monitor each student's activity and progress and
be there to answer any questions or concerns necessary. The materials that will be needed
depend on the student's preference which can range anywhere from iPads to computers to
cellular devices. The SRS activity should take no longer than 15-30 minutes tops.

Types of Questions/Prompts (Check all that Apply):
Multiple-choice Multiple Select True/False Yes/No Short Open-ended response
or fill-in-blank Longer open-ended response
Provide samples of questions/prompts to be given to students:
Some samples include 3+5, 2+7, 1+4, 3+3, 4+9, etc. Using each of the six study modes under the
drop down box, students will be given a certain amount of time in each mode to answer as many
2
questions as possible for an accurary grade. The more correct answers that are completed, the
better.
Right/Wrong Answers: Will there be right/wrong answers to these questions? : Yes No
Mixed (Some will have correct answers, others will not.)
Immediate Corrective Feedback:
Will you pre-select correct answers to some or all of the questions and display the correct
response to the class after the SRS activity? Yes No
Why or why not? Yes, because that way students will be able to see where exactly they went
wrong and use that as an example for the upcoming questions. All incorrect answers will be
reviewed by the teacher to the class as a whole for a better understanding of the concept.
Use of Data: What data will be collected as a result of this activity. How will it be used and by
whom? (For example: Will information collected from this activity be used to award a grade?
Will the individual information collected be shared with students and/or parents to help them
monitor individual progress? Will you discuss the aggregate, anonymous data with the whole
class to help them learn? Will you use data to differentiate instruction for students? If so,
describe how. ) As a result of this activity, the majority of right and wrong answers will be
collected along with the student's scores. This information will be gathered by the teacher in
order to see if students are on track with where they need to be in their learning and/ or making
progress with unsuccessful attempts at questions. The information that will be collected from
this activity will indeed be used to award grades. However, individual information of students
will NOT be shared with other students. One the other hand, student's information will be shared
with their parents so they can keep up with their child's progress. The data collected will be used
to differentiate instruction because teachers will be able to realize what students need more help
than others.
Describe what will occur after the SRS activity: After the activity, the teacher will ask the
students if they have any questions. For the questions that students missed the most, the teacher
will work out those problems so students can understand why they missed them. From there,
students will pair off into groups and create a hands-on activity to help better grasp the concept
of basic addition (e.g. flashcards, poster boards, KWL charts, etc.) Once complete, students will be
assigned homework to review the concepts they learned in class.
Describe your personal learning goal for this activity. (For example: What are you trying that
you have not tried before? What do you hope to learn from this activity? How do you hope it will
help students learn? You must design something that will help you learn something new! Honor
System!) More than anything I want students to be able to retain the information being
presented to them. Normally, students would learn the information and once its completed and
they move on, students tend to forget what was just taught to them. I hope that this activity will
be a fun and learning experience that students can hold onto for years and years on.


Other comments about your SRS Activity (optional): I feel that Quizlet is an awesome website
for students to master whatever subject they are being taught. In addition, it's an excellent tool to
help them study and retain the information outside of being in the class.
