==**Here are some example files including assessments from ExamView and CPS and related interactive lessons on Workspace software. Feel free to use the discussion tab on this page to ask questions or make comments about these lessons.**==


 * Preassessment (Formative assessment)** - CPS/Mobi KWIK screen - Start with a few CPS questions (teacher mode) - look at reports for planning future lessons and just-in-time data on KWIK screen for immediate interventions.
 * Intervention (Direct Instruction/Guided Practice)** - Mobi/Workspace - interactive lesson - Use the Mobi and/or Interwrite Board to deliver an interactive lesson which involves the students for maximum active participation.
 * Progress Monitoring** - Use ExamView question(s) and CPS reporting features to keep track of student progress.

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece. Page one - layers and moveable objects - Hide Layer 1 - in Layer 2, move the a out of the way - hide layer 2 - in layer 3 move the apostrophe into the word and move the "re" closer. Page two - copier feature - move the word "here" to the "t" to show that the word "here" is in the word "there" Page three - moving objects - teaching strategy:sorting - let audience sort pictures - or just demo the idea of the page quickly Page four - moving objects and copier feature - teaching strategy: cloze - move words into the blanks
 * Grammar - their, there, they're**

This ExamView file can be used as the progress monitoring piece.

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece. Page one - layers, text recognition, copier feature, moveable object - teaching strategy: modeling and guided practice. - - uncover one layer at a time to reveal what the "class" did Page two - set up a new problem and have the audience solve it.
 * Math - Order of Operations**

This ExamView file can be used as the progress monitoring piece.


 * Science - Rotation and Revolution**

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece.

Page one - layers, moving objects, screencast, Interwrite Sims - Teaching strategy: modeling, guided practice - layer 2 - play the movie to demonstrate how to move the object, let participants move the object layer 3 - turn off layer 2 - show how process can be repeated layer 4 - turn off layer 3 - spin the spinner to choose a task, participants carry it out (or you demonstrate if time is limited)

This ExamView file can be used as the progress monitoring piece.


 * Social Studies - Political Cartoon DBQ**

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece.

Page one - title Page two - pen tool, copier feature, layers, hyperlinking, screen capture - teaching strategy: noticing important details, modeling, labeling, guided practice - have participants circle important details and talk about why they are important. Click on the hyperlink to show them how to find a political cartoon and capture an image. Then in layer two, have them drag over the labels as appropriate (as long as they can explain why they labeled something that way--there are no "wrong" answers) Page three - skip over or just mention Dr. Suess website for WWII cartoons Page four - **Checking for Understanding/Guided Practice -** Link to website and use Mobi to interact with the website outside of Workspace. (If they want to write on the page, you can click on the lesson mode, but then the interactive part of the website won't work because it will no longer be on the internet.)

This CPS folder will need to be unzipped before using it.

**Primary Demo**


The questions in this CPS file can be used to supplement the next three lessons. You will need to unzip the folder.


 * Math - Money (Coins)**

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece.

Title Page: Motivation -- Going to Wendy's Page Two: Identifying fronts and backs of coins: Layer 1 - move coins in right column - then move them back, Layer 2 - draw lines from front to back, Layer 3 - check answers for drawn lines. Page Three: Counting correct change: Layer 1 - Write an amount and have students drag correct coins. Show how the coins are infinitely cloned. Drag to delete coins and start over. Layer 2 and 3 are set up with cloned coins in case you need them. Page Four: Counting correct change with some paper money. (The menu is a little fuzzy). Drag a menu item into the blue box (They are infinitely cloned along with the money.) and then drag the exact change into the green box. Page Five: Making change: Layer 1 just background. Layer 2 - first example of item, price, and bill. Students figure out how much change to give. Layer 3 - another example (turn off layer 2)

CPS lesson notes: The last two questions in the Money lesson are "higher level thinking" questions. You should point this out and talk about the class discussion that should accompany the questions.


 * ELA - Pronouns**

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece.

Page One: Layer one: Cloze procedure (fill in the blanks), Layer two: Check answers Page Two: Cloze procedure with images. (More than one correct answer depending on the child who answers.)

CPS lesson notes: questions are meant for a little higher functioning student. Class discussion should be centered on the questions and the correct answers as well as the logical thinking that is needed to answer them.


 * Reading - Consonant Blends**

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece.

Layer one: background only Layer two: first example - drag the consonant blends to make a word. Say the word. Talk about whether it is a word or not a real word. Continue with another blend. Layer three: second example

CPS lesson notes: This would be an appropriate summative assessment for the interactive lesson.


 * ELA - Handwriting**

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece.

Layer one: students should first trace the dotted lines to practice the letter. Then they should write a row of the letter on their own in the spaces below Layer two: another letter Layer three: (suggestion put a word to practice in this layer--I didn't do this yet.)


 * Math - Addition and Subtraction**

This Workspace file can be used as the direct instruction and guided practice piece.

Page one: Addition using the Stamp tool. Layer one is a background, Layer two is an example done for you, Layer three is another example Page two: Subtraction using the stamp tool. Layer two is an example which has been started for you. Apples must be moved over and the the remainder is counted before writing a solution. Layer three could be another example without any stamps already there. I did not add it yet.
