As I was thinking about my implementation plan and what blended learning might look like in my classroom this Fall, I came across a wealth of resources on BetterLesson that hopefully we can all leverage in some capacity to inform our work. (For those of you not familiar with BetterLesson, it may just become your new best friend. It houses a wealth of instructional resources from teachers across the country, and more recently has partnered with "Master Teachers" in ELA, Math, and Science to develop high-quality, standards-aligned units and lesson plans.)
Most relevant to our work is BetterLesson's newest project: a "Blended Master Teacher" feature that provides resources on how to design a blended learning classroom, deliver instruction through blended instructional practices, and continue to develop as a teacher in a blended environment. Each of the teachers who are posting resources have been vetted by BetterLesson through an extensive and competitive application process, and, at first glance, the resources available seem outstanding. Interested in finding out what formative assessment might look like in a blended classroom? How about small group instruction? What about independent student learning? Or just what routines and procedures might look like in this redefined instructional space? All of these questions - and many more - are answered through the site, which is carefully curated and includes videos of the eleven Master Teachers at work, as well as instructional materials they are using with their students. Check out all that the website has to offer here. Enjoy!
