ABSTRACT

I get this question often. I will show you examples of what Flipped Instruction can look like, starting with writing instruction. Writing seems to be the place where a lot of ELA teachers begin their flipping experience. The skills needed for writing can be explained in a video and individual instruction with the students can improve those skills. As discussed previously, different models of Flipped Learning are available, and the model you choose determines what your flip looks like. Everyone’s flip operates differently based on his or her teaching style, personality, pedagogical influences, and the students in the class. I’ll show you a variety of lesson plans for the different models of flipping. Some teachers will use Traditional Flip, some Explore-Flip-Apply, and some Peer Instruction Flip; some will present a similar lesson in two different models. There are no Flip-Mastery lessons here, because the mastery part is in how you assess and not in how you plan your lessons. If you are interested in the Flip-Mastery model, you would take Traditional Flip lessons and add an assessment to the end to determine the students’ mastery level.
