Rhonda L. Marusak Purpose: Provide Advanced and gifted students a chance to reach their full potential in science by stimulating their imagination, creating challenges, giving them choices, increasing their interest, and providing personal connections to science curriculum. Elements: *Self paced curriculum, including videos, guided reading and practice, menus for choice and differentiation, and my assistance. *Peer tutoring * Mastery of TEKS for all students. * Business principles applied to group work *"Ownership" of chemistry material * Opportunities for advancement and remediation that are differentiated and individualized. * Immediate feedback * Fun, adventure, "in zone" activities. * Organization, direction * Innovation * Technology * Interaction with parents * Input from students Provisions: * Rewards in the form of CC's, or Chemistry Capitol (coins), earning tangible rewards like food. * Fortune 6 companies * Structure in the form of student developed businesses * Legitimate roles in the group with responsibilities and accountability * Weekly challenges to keep students engaged and "in the zone" * Random double CC days for challenge and engagement. * Daily posting of top 6 companies according to CC's * Unit checklist to make sure students know what's expected in the unit. * Peer tutoring to allow struggling students to catch up, and faster students to strengthen their own understanding of the material. * Students can excel past traditional boundaries, by moving ahead as they study on their own. * Calling each parent to ask how their child best learns, and to help them feel a part of the process. * Survey students to ask how what motivates them to learn. Jobs within the group: CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Make sure other officers can fulfill duties Report needs of students to me Help other students progress in chemistry. Delegation of responsibilities and tasks Vice President: Keep track of what everyone in the group has gotten turned in, and/or completed. Back up CEO CFO (Chief Financial Officer) : Keep track of points earned - these must be checked off daily by me - I’ll let you know the ones I have accrued to add to your form Maintain a “Net Worth Statement” spreadsheet to keep up with your group’s points. Secretary: Make sure shared documents are turned in with all names on it. Keep track of ideas CMO (Chief Marketing Officer): Obtain, keep clean and updated any and all lab and classroom materials. Watch for real world trends in your business Look for marketing ideas and apply to what you are trying to do in the business If you do not have 5 members in your group to cover all the duties, you have to split the remaining duties among the other officers. This will go in your business proposal. You may add other duties as needed Extra instructions to students: Name of the company - this must be unique and not an existing company It may be practical (it can be done) or imaginary Nature of the company (what you are making, or what service you are rendering) Mission Statement Logo (make sure it’s not already copyrighted) Officer’s names and responsibilities Disclaimer: This is a work in progress and will evolve as the year goes by.
