Seminar on Educational Leadership By Dr. Shahrokhi SESSION # 2 Wednesday, September 26, 2007 Theme: The LSI Thinking Styles and Effective Management Topic: Self-Improvement Plan Participant’s Name: Gulnora Kamolova (Secondary School #5 Hisor, Tajikistan) Step 1: Looking at your completed LSI profile, you will notice that each style’s extension from the center of the Circumflex varies in length. The further extensions from the center indicate styles that are predominant in your profile. Your two longest style extensions have the greatest influence on your behavior, and are called your primary and backup styles. List them below. Primary Achievement (11 o’clock position) Backup Humanistic-encouraging (1 o’clock position)
What does this style mean to you? My score for the dependent style means I tend to believe that: I let others determine my behavior and guide my life. Especially I used to obey to my parents and most of the time I let them to do decision for me. I think they are older and know what is good for me and what is bad and feel they’re responsible for my happiness.
Step 4: Consider the consequences of using this style and list them as indicated below. Personally
Professionally
Step 5: Consider how your life would be different if you changed your behavior in this area. Some positive differences: I would feel myself freer, confident, learn and understand the life, its challenges better and feel myself adult, enjoy my life, change a lot of things in my work. Some negative differences: May be I would have some challenges and troubles. Because it’s always difficult to make changes and people accept it differently: some people understand and accept positively but some misunderstand and accept negatively. People are different so their thoughts and ideas are different too. They would be agree with me and discuss what I say and do. Seminar on Professional Development and Change: Reflective Practice, Individual Action Plans, and Action Research. Fieldwork Reflection 1: What were the greatest similarities that you noticed during your first fieldwork observation? What were the greatest differences? Which of the differences are potentially useful for your school? I’ve been visiting Holmes Middle School: 6525 Montrose Street, Alexandria, VA 22033. I’ve been in Holmes Middle School two days on Tuesday and Thursday in the lessons of Ms Vilma Laringakis. She teaches English as a second language, Social Studies and The World Culture to grades 6 to 8. There’re some similarities like school is free for every pupil, school supplies books for pupils, classes are mixed boys and girls study together, they can have lunch in the cafeteria, there’re some extracurricular activities for pupils to attend after the classes, there's parent association. The differences are: the school is smaller, pupils take a school bus to school and it's free, pupils can choose they want to study, there's a school security department, pupils wear to school what they want, no uniforms, once a week they have 5 minutes training how to behave in case of emergency e.g. fire, every pupil has his own box in the corridor where they keep their things and lock the door, Pupils have different background and different ages, the classrooms are well equipped, the posters, drawings design work in the classrooms are made by pupils, school provide all teaching materials for teachers, big gyms with equipments, a library with a lot of books and computers connected to the internet, every classroom is different and taught very well when you enter top music class you see pupils playing like real orchestra , technology class pupils doing different activities like some are building bridges listening to instruction on computer, others doing some experience on Chemistry or Physics, teaching techniques are also different, Pupils more free the age of pupils are different, they’re relaxed more free and relaxed. It was amazing for me to observe all this things and I've learned a lot. I think everything I’ve learned is important and new for me and as well it will be useful and new for my school. And I'm sure I can change a lot in my school and in teaching. 2 My lesson plans/Shared lesson plans Lesson Plan Participants: 12 Grade level: 7 grade Length of the lesson: 40 minutes Date: 10/11/2007 Title: Tajikistan 1. Objective: At the end of the lesson students will have gained knowledge about Tajikistan and be able to talk about Tajikistan’s geography, culture, traditions and customs and places of interest. 2. Materials for learning activities Text about Tajikistan, maps of Central Asia, markers and board. 3. Procedures for learning activities Pre-reading activity—Activate Prior Knowledge Brainstorming What do you know about Tajikistan? Write the word Tajikistan on the board and elicit from students as many information as you can. Put all the information on the board in order for students to see them.
Give out the handouts with the text about Tajikistan and ask students to read independently and check were they right or not.(refer to board) Post-reading activity. a) Work in groups of three. Divide students into groups and tell them to choose and discuss a place to visit in Tajikistan and say why they would like to visit this place. Let a student to report to the class about the places they would like to visit. b) Work in groups. Find Tajikistan on the map, color it and say the bordering countries. Students report about their work. 4. Assessment a) 3-2-1 Activity Ask students to work individually and complete the table, give out the handouts and set up time.
Students enjoyed the lesson, they got information about the country they didn’t know before. When I asked them to write about the places they would like to visit they chose different places and asked many questions about historical places and meals about capital city and so on. It was interesting for them to learn about other country’s culture. I think next time I would change way of dividing them into groups because in one group there were all advanced students and they did the tasks very quickly and began to talk while the others were working.
Tour Tajikistan invites you on a tour of Tajikistan. Tajikistan is a small country about 143 thousand square kilometers. But there’s a lot you can see and do. And there are a lot of friendly people you can meet. The population of Tajikistan is approximately 7 million people. There are many nationalities: Tajik, Uzbek, Russian, Kyrgyz, Turkmen and others.

[30 min] 5 Assessment The tortoise’s Picnic Narrator:Once upon a time there were three tortoises: a father, a mother and a baby. One beautiful spring day, they decided to go for a picnic. Baby: Oh, what a beautiful day! Mum, let’s go for a picnic! Mother: OK. We’ll take three Colas, and three apples, and three bananas, and three sandwiches, and three cakes, and three cans of fish. Narrator: They put everything in their baskets. They set out carrying their basket. They walked and walked and walked. After three months they were a kilometer from home. It was summer and it was sunny and hot. Baby: Oh, it’s very hot. I’m tired. Father: OK. Let’s sit down and have a rest. Narrator: They set out again and walked and walked and walked. And after three months they were two kilometers from home. They set out again and walked and walked and walked. And after three months they reached the picnic place. They were three kilometers from home. It was winter and it was snowing and very cold. They unpacked their baskets and spread out the cloth, and arranged the food on it. Mother: Well… Three Colas, and three apples, and three bananas, and three sandwiches, and three cakes and three cans of fish … Oh!!! Mother: We’ve forgotten the can-opener! Father: Baby, go back and bring the can-opener. Baby: What!!!? … Me!!!? Go back all that long way1 Father: We can’t start without a can-opener. We’ll wait for you. Baby: Do you promise that you won’t eat till I come back? Father: Yes, we promise. Narrator: And Father and Mother waited. They waited and waited. And after three months they got hungry. Mother: I’m hungry. Can we have just one sandwich each? Father: No, honey. We promised sonny. We must wait. Narrator: And Father and Mother waited. They waited and waited. And after three months they got really hungry. Mother: I’m really hungry. Father: OK. Let’s just have one sandwich while we’re waiting. Narrator: So, they picked up the sandwiches. But just as they were going to eat them, a little voice said: Baby: Aha! I knew you would cheat. It’s good thing I didn’t go back for the can-opener.
The lessons were very interesting. Everybody was involved and busy, at the beginning it seemed easy but there were challenging activities like creating their own stories or writing a letter and some students saw themselves in the Baby tortoise character, they discuss the story and told the others about themselves. I liked them connecting the story with their life. I think next time I’d change the first activity adding more details to posters, students weren’t happy to have ready posters they’d like to draw them by themselves. I think I have to give them time for this activity because they like drawing so much.

Name of the Seminar: Educational Leadership by Dr. Shahrokhi Topic: Multiple Intelligences Subject: Social Studies Grade Level: 7 – 8 Overview: During the past hundred years, due to new technologies the world has changed in many ways. Some changes have improved the quality of life and health for the human being. Others have affected people’s health care adversely causing different kinds of pollution that have harmed the environment. Purpose: As the future of our country, children need to be able to identify the types of pollution, the sources of pollution, and how they can protect the environment from future pollutant. Objectives: By the end of the lesson students will be able to:
Resources/Materials:: lesson vocabulary cards, photographs of water, air, and land pollution, chart paper, "Let's Stop Pollution" poster, poster board, crayons, markers, variety of sizes of cardboard boxes, poster or tempera paint, Kleenex, soap, water, variety of pollution bumper stickers. Activities and Procedures: Linguistic/Spatial intelligences (How can I use the key terms on pollution, How can I use visual aids/visualization/color/art or metaphor?) 1. The Teacher will begin the activities by displaying and reviewing the lesson vocabulary. (Pollution, surroundings, litter, environment) 2. The teacher will discuss the displayed pictures of water, air, and land pollution. Students will identify what is wrong in each of the pictures displayed. Teacher will write students responses underneath each of the pictures. Teacher will remind the students that pollution is anything that harms our surroundings and that people cannot survive without clean air, water, and land. Stress that pollution is a responsibility and concern of all people in every community. 3. Ask students to "Brainstorm" to complete a list of ways that they can help to stop pollution. Examples: not put garbage into the lakes and streams, walk or ride bikes whenever possible, pick up litter). List the students’ responses on a poster titled "Let's Stop Pollution". Teacher will stress that because so many important things in the surroundings are shared by people in other communities, everyone must work to stop pollution of the air, water, and land.
1. Teacher will provide students with a half sheet of posterboard and crayons. Teacher will instruct the students to make a poster to inform others about pollution. Display the posters around the school. (Spatial intelligence) 2. Teacher will provide students with boxes and paint. Teacher will instruct the students to make "litter boxes" with labels and decorations that state why it is important not to litter. Place the boxes in areas around the school or home. (Bodily-Kinesthetic /Spatial intelligences) 3. Teacher will instruct the students wash the outside of a window that is easy to reach. A few days later, teacher will ask the students to wipe the same window with a clean tissue. Teacher will make groups and instruct the students to discuss possible reasons the window became dirty. (Air pollution) (Linguistic/Bodily-kinesthetic/Interpersonal intelligences) 4. Provide students with materials to make replicas of bumper stickers illustrating warnings and laws concerning pollution. Suggestions: NO LITTERING, NO TRUCKS, NO DUMPING, NO BURNING. (Naturalist intelligence) OR. Teacher will take the students for Fieldtrips to local companies or industries that deal with pollution prevention. After field visit students will write 2 pages report on how to prevent pollution. (Naturalist/Intrapersonal intelligences) 5. In group students will be instructed to make jingle to raise the awareness regarding the causes and effects of pollution. Teacher will provide key terms on pollution i.e. pollution, surrounding, litter, environment, etc). Students will present their jingle in front of the class. (Musical Intelligence)
Expert group
When students have a long text to read in a short period of time When a lot of material has to be covered in a short period of time
It develops all language skills like reading, speaking and writing. Students work cooperatively in the groups. Students gather much more information than they would have on their own during that time period.
Break students into groups Give each group a topic or a portion of a reading or vocabulary word Students are to read independently or as a group Students are to discuss with group members (teacher should give guiding question) They need to become experts. One student from each group will go to another group At this time, this student will teach to the new group what he/she learned and listen from his new group. OR Break students into groups Give each group a topic or a potion of a reading Students are to read independently Students are to discuss with group members (teacher should give guiding questions)they need to become experts. Then the expert group needs to share with the class what they learned
They’re interesting and new for me and a good way of engaging all students in the process. I also can use them for warming up, for practicing reading or working with vocabulary.
I would like all my colleagues at school to know and use these strategies because they’re suitable in all lessons  Portfolio Strategy Sheet
Choose a method or strategy that you have learned about or observed during field experience.
Picture dictionary
When students need to learn new vocabulary, to show understanding of the word and to use the new word properly in a sentence.
This kind of activity helps to check student’s comprehension, students work individually it develops thinking skills because students find definition of the words, draw a picture how they understand the word and write a sentence with this word.
Students are to figure out meaning using context clues, Teacher goes over definitions with students. Students must alphabetize the words. Students must write the definition. Students must draw a picture showing the meaning of the word. Students must use the word in a sentence. (Sentence needs to be about picture)
They’re interesting and new for me and a good way of engaging all students in the process. I also can use them for warming up, for practicing reading or working with vocabulary.
I would like all my colleagues at school to know and use these strategies because it’s a good way of learning language.
