What strengths do you see in Ms. Marotta's lesson?
What will be an ideal response?
Strengths include the following:
• She activates prior knowledge (e.g., about air conditioning and about Friday's lesson).
• She provides a retrieval cue ("What's the difference between where we are and Long's Peak?") when students have trouble retrieving the concept of elevation.
• On at least two occasions, she asks the students to relate the material to their own lives ("How many of you have air conditioning?", "How do you think you might feel [living in Alaska]?").
• She asks Jackson to write important elements of the discussion on the chalkboard, thereby presumably scaffolding students' note taking.
• At one point, she asks students to elaborate on a response
