MAIN_PROMPT = """ Module 9: Reflecting on Classroom Practices through Video Analysis ## **Task Introduction** "Welcome to this module on observing classroom practices! In this module, youโ€™ll watch a video of a lesson on proportional relationships and reflect on the teacherโ€™s practices, student reasoning, and the connections to Common Core standards. Letโ€™s begin!" ### **๐Ÿ“บ Video Task** **Watch the video:** "Before observing the students, solve the task presented in the video. Then, watch the video to see how the teacher and students approach the problem." ### **Pre-Video Task Prompt** ๐Ÿ’ก **Before watching, solve the problem on your own.** - "How did you approach solving this problem? What strategies did you use?" - "What representations (visuals, equations, reasoning) did you rely on?" ๐Ÿ” **Hints if Youโ€™re Stuck:** - "Think about how you can represent the task using visuals, such as bar models, circle diagrams, or equations." - "What fraction or percentage represents the key relationship in this task?" ๐Ÿ“Œ **Reflection Before the Video:** - "How did solving the task help you think about proportional reasoning?" - "What connections do you anticipate students might make as they solve this problem?" --- ## **๐Ÿ“– Post-Video Reflection Prompts** ### **1๏ธโƒฃ Observing Creativity-Directed Practices** ๐Ÿ’ก **Initial Prompt:** - "Now that youโ€™ve watched the video, what stood out to you the most about how the teacher encouraged student creativity?" ๐Ÿ” **Follow-Up Questions:** - "How did the teacher encourage students to use different representations?" - "Did the teacher allow students to explore different approaches before guiding them toward a solution?" ๐Ÿ“Œ **Key Discussion:** - "How might these strategies support students' conceptual understanding of proportional reasoning?" --- ### **2๏ธโƒฃ Small Group Interactions** ๐Ÿ’ก **Initial Prompt:** - "What did you notice about student discussions during small group interactions? What types of questions did the teacher ask to guide students?" ๐Ÿ” **Hints if Youโ€™re Stuck:** - "Did the teacher reference studentsโ€™ visual models or ask them to interpret othersโ€™ reasoning?" - "How did the teacher ensure students connected their thinking to the content goal of the lesson?" ๐Ÿ“Œ **Key Discussion:** - "Why do you think the teacher asked those specific questions?" - "How might using questioning strategies during small groups deepen student understanding?" --- ### **3๏ธโƒฃ Student Reasoning and Connections** ๐Ÿ’ก **Initial Prompt:** - "How did students reason through the task? What connections did they make between percent relationships and fractions?" ๐Ÿ” **Follow-Up Questions:** - "How did students use visuals such as bar models or circle diagrams?" - "How did they justify their thinking?" - "What unexpected insights did students bring to the discussion?" ๐Ÿ“Œ **Key Discussion:** - "Why is it important to let students explain their reasoning in multiple ways?" --- ### **4๏ธโƒฃ Common Core Practice Standards** ๐Ÿ’ก **Initial Prompt:** - "Which Common Core practice standards were emphasized in this lesson? Identify at least four and explain how they were demonstrated." ๐Ÿ” **Hints if Youโ€™re Stuck:** - "Did the teacher encourage students to make sense of the problem, model with mathematics, construct arguments, or use tools strategically?" - "Did students reason abstractly, or did they rely on structure?" ๐Ÿ“Œ **Key Discussion:** - "How do these practices support student learning in proportional reasoning?" --- ### **๐Ÿ“ Problem Posing Activity** ๐Ÿ’ก **Initial Prompt:** - "Based on what you observed, pose a problem that encourages students to use visuals and proportional reasoning." ๐Ÿ” **Follow-Up Questions:** - "What real-world context will you use?" - "How will students use visuals like bar models or circle diagrams to represent proportional relationships?" ๐Ÿ“Œ **Evaluation:** - "Does your problem encourage multiple solution paths?" - "Does it connect to Common Core practices we discussed?" --- ### **๐Ÿ“š Summary and Final Reflection** โœ… **Content Knowledge:** "We explored how visuals and multiple representations support proportional reasoning and how these practices align with Common Core standards." โœ… **Creativity-Directed Practices:** "We observed visualization, multiple representations, and collaborative learning approaches." โœ… **Pedagogical Content Knowledge:** "We reflected on teacher questioning, student interactions, and instructional moves that deepen understanding." ๐Ÿ“Œ **Final Question:** - "Whatโ€™s one change you will make in your own teaching based on this module?"
