Nov 2013 - I am in the process of creating my own material for my Flipped Classroom. I am taking what I have learned from The Algebros http://www.flippedmath.com and Ms Kirch @ http://flippingwithkirch.blogspot.com. SOME Worksheets on this site are not my own but being borrowed by other talented teachers. - Thank you for sharing.

THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM
What is active learning?
In my classroom Active learning is defined as:
- A place where the student at the center of the learning process, making him/her a partner in discovery, not a passive receiver of information.
- Active learning encourages students to communicate and interact with course materials through reading, writing, discussing, problem-solving, investigating, reflecting, and engaging in the higher order thinking tasks of application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.

SEATING
In flipped-mastery there is no whole group direct instruction. This gives the teacher freedom for flexible grouping. We have tried many different ways to group students. One of our favorites is grouping them by section, so that all students in section 3.4 today sit here, all in 3.5 sit here, etc... We make one group for students that are far ahead and one for students that are behind. Students working on the same section can help each other out. As a teacher, it allows us to address all the kids in one section at one time.
PACKETS
Note and practice packets are pre-printed. They are also posted on the website. We use an organizer to organize all packets for the current unit of study. Students are free to print packets at home as well. Students print their own corrective assignment if they fail a mastery check.
BEHAVIOR
This will not be a classroom where students are quiet while the teacher gives instruction. You will need every minute of class time. The teacher is extremely busy helping all individual students. You are responsible for your learning and using class time appropriately. Many students love the independence to work on what they need to. You may also work with your peers when learning a new skill. Some students may struggle with this new concept and need a little more guidance from staff. This is all about YOU LEARNING the material. We expect that students will not distract other students from their work. If you need to utilize a support, please do so.
TECHNOLOGY
Students will watch videos to take notes. We will be using the iPads and headphones for this. You will be able to print out corrective assignments and packets using the teacher’s computer. Print out all practice solutions are in a folder for student use. Students may bring their own headphones to class.
Mastery Check Example
Grades are constantly changing!!! It is very possible to go from an F to A in one class and vice versa. Grades are constantly changing grades to reflect your real time performance.
In flipped mastery learning students will pass every section and every test, it is just a matter of doing it early, on time, or late. A course may take some students 1.5 years and other student three-fourths of a year.
