ITEMS INCLUDED

▶️ Accountable Talk Talking Stems:

These Accountable Talk Sentence Starter Talking Stem Bookmarks are tools that students can use to respectfully get themselves into conversations and to draw other people into the conversation. They come in two variations.

✅ Variation #1 - One Column Talking Stem that contains 5 talking/discussion areas: Agree, Disagree, Prompt, Clarify, and Add-On. This variation comes in four colors: Yellow, Pink, Blue, and B&W. Each color bookmark includes the same content.

✅ Variation #2 - Two Column Talking Stem that contains 10 talking/discussion areas: Agree, Disagree, Prompt, Clarify, Add-On, Explain, Evidence Comment, Question, and Summarize. This variation comes in four colors: Yellow, Pink, Blue, and B&W. Each color bookmark includes the same content.

✅ SAME CONTENT - 4 COLORS

▶️ Desk Tags (2 Variations, Same Content)

This resource includes two Accountable Talk Desk Tags. Same content in two variations. The Desk Tags are Accountable Talk “mini posters” that can be printed and nicely taped to the corner of students' desk so they can reference them all year long. They can refer to these tags for every activity, written and oral! There are two different designs - Colored and B&W.

▶️ Accountable Talk Sentence Starter Sheet

The Accountable Talk Sentence Starter Sheet includes discussion stems for 8 Accountable Talk categories: Agreeing, Disagreeing, Using Evidence, Adding On, Clarifying, Questioning, Predicting, and Inferring. Students can keep these sheets in their folders and have access to them where ever they go, especially at home. They can use these discussion starters in their writing and homework assignments as well!

▶️ Peer Evaluation Accountable Talk Discussion Rubric (EDITABLE)

This resource includes one Peer Evaluation Rubric in three variations - Same content. Editable versions are included, so you can modify in such a way that meets the needs of your students and instructional plans!

The Peer Evaluation Accountable Talk Discussion Rubric is meant for students to use and asses each other during Classroom Talk. Before beginning a discussion or debate, give each student a Peer Evaluation Rubric with another student’s name on it. (You can decide who will asses who, or you can just randomly write the names on Rubrics). Ask students to “secretly” observe and assess that student’s participation during the class discussion or debate. Students should not know who is assessing who so that evaluations of participation are fair. Throughout the discussion or debate, students will take meaningful notes of their classmates’ discourse/performances. At the end of the discussion or debate, give them 5 minutes to score the student whose name is on their Peer Evaluation Rubric. Finally, students can go up to the person they were observing and hand them the rubric. At the very end, the teacher collects the rubrics for review.

This has worked so well for me! Students were always “on their toes." Students found it so exciting to be observed by classmates and also observe others.

▶️ 2 Group Discussion Rubric/Reflection Sheets (EDITABLE)

This resource also includes two group discussion rubric/reflection sheets where you can either have students 1) evaluate the performance of the group during Accountable Talk/Group Discussions and/or 2) evaluate their own participation during group work/discussions.

This website/webpage evaluation rubric is a great tool for students to get the most out of their online learning experience. It helps them to identify areas for improvement and to develop their skills in assessing and evaluating websites and webpages. With this rubric, students can easily identify areas for improvement and develop their skills in assessing websites and webpages. It can be printed or used as is (Google Sheets).

Have stacks of essays and writing assignments you need to grade and looking for a quick and easy way to grade them? Look no further, scoop up these Writing Peer Assessments which come 2 per page and put the bulk of the grading task on the students themselves! Working with their peers, students first read the writing assignments or essays, then list their strengths and weaknesses. At this point, you can also give them copies of rubrics to reference as well. After doing a deep-dive into the writing assignment, students then assign a grade and staple their Peer Writing Assessment slip to the front and all you need to do is review the comments and decide if you agree with the grade given. In the end, the grade given by the teacher is final! Although I don't utilize this method for EVERY essay I grade, I definitely turn to these peer assessments when grading becomes overwhelming!

This resource includes 12 different Accountable Talk / Classroom Talk Discussion Trackers (in different variations). Two of the Accountable Data Trackers are "student trackers" and titled “My Discussion Tracker” where students can keep track of their own participation during classroom talk. These trackers enable you to keep track of who's making:

• Claims/Inferences
• Supporting their Ideas with Evidence
• Providing an Analysis or Explanation of their Claims/Inferences (Substance)
• Volunteering their Ideas
• Using Accountable Talk Stems
• Engaging in Respectful Communication with Peers
• Actively Listening
• Making Connections
• Building on Others’ Ideas
• Not Contributing to Discussion
• Not Using Accountable Talk Stems
• Does Not Support Ideas with Evidence
• Interrupting Others (as they speak)
• Engaged in Side Activities
• Lacking Substance

✅ Some trackers also provides you opportunities to jot down important key points that students have shared during discussion as well as some interventions needed to help them engage better in classroom talk.

✅ All this information can be tracked in these Classroom Talk / Accountable Talk Discussion Trackers. The data captured in these trackers can greatly help you provide the necessary interventions needed to support students in rigorous classroom talk. These trackers can also help you monitor their progress and have evidence of student learning. Your administrators will love you for this!

✅ Additionally, all 12 Discussion Trackers come in EDITABLE forms, so you can easily modify according to your needs and your students’ needs.

✅ PLEASE NOTE: The editable trackers do not contain the same fonts, borders, and clipart images as in the PDF version due to copyright purposes and requirements made by other contributing clipart artists. However, you may add your own borders and images to the editable version as well as change the fonts to your own style. The trackers themselves in the editable version are the same as the PDF version. The PDF version contains all the visually appealing fonts, clipart graphics, and borders.

*******************************

▶️ 70 Rectangular Accountable Talk Stem Strips (5 strips for each of the 14 categories)

There are 5 rectangular Accountable Talk Sentence Starter Stem Strips for EACH category. Included are both COLORED and B&W Sentence Strips. These rectangular Accountable Talk Stem Strips provide students with access to five different option speech starters for each category.

How You Can Use the Stem Strips

✅ One great idea is to provide students with these rectangular stems and have them write their names on the back. During discussion, every time a student introduces/expresses his or her ideas using the sentence starter on the Accountable Talk Rectangular Stem Strip, they hand that stem strip to you. At the end of class, you will be able to see and take note of how many times each student used the stem starter during discussion when presenting ideas. (All you have to do is look at their names in the back). It's an AMAZING way to keep track of who’s using Accountable Talk during discussion and who isn’t, then provide intervention to ensure that students are using them. Students will also see that they are being held accountable for engaging in productive classroom talk using academic language!

✅ You can also display them on your bulletin boards so students can use them as a reference when engaging in productive, respectful talk!

*******************************

▶️ 32 Accountable Talk Speech Bubbles

This resource includes 32 Accountable Talk Speech Bubbles (Rainbow and B&W) that can be posted anywhere in the classroom where students can reference them during discussions.

These will provide them with varied opportunities to practice, apply, and build "new" language proficiency.

As students both discuss and record their ideas and answers, and listen and record others' ideas and answers, they can get different perspectives on a topic, organize their thinking, and feel more confident in contributing to their discussions.

These Discussion Note-Catcher Worksheets come in two variations:

✅ 21 Discussion Worksheets WITH Graphics

▶️ 1 Peer Evaluation Accountable Talk Discussion Rubric / 3 Variations

This resource includes one Peer Evaluation Rubric in three variations - Same content. Editable versions are included, so you can modify in such a way that meets the needs of your students and instructional plans!

The Peer Evaluation Accountable Talk Discussion Rubric is meant for students to use and asses each other during Class Talk. Before beginning a discussion or debate, give each student a Peer Evaluation Rubric with another student’s name on it. (You can decide who will asses who, or you can just randomly write the names on Rubrics). Ask students to “secretly” observe and assess that student’s participation during the class discussion or debate. Students should not know who is assessing who so that evaluations of participation are fair. Throughout the discussion or debate, students will take meaningful notes of their classmates’ performances. At the end of the discussion or debate, give them 5 minutes to score the student whose name is on their Peer Evaluation Rubric. Finally, students can go up to the person they were observing and hand them the rubric. At the very end, the teacher collects the rubrics for review. This has worked so well for me! Students were always “on their toes." Students found it so exciting to be observed by classmates and also observe others.

▶️ 3 Accountable Talk Reflection Sheets (Print and Digital)

Students' reflection of classroom talk helps them identify areas and skills that need both improvement and enrichment. These reflection sheets encourage students to reflect about their experiences during collaborative talk and develop an appreciation for particular skills involved. These reflection sheets are student-friendly making it feasible for students of all levels to think and write about their overall participation in a collaborative learning environment. Reflection sheets contain images, sentence starters, and questions to really help students think about their learning. They are especially student-friendly for SPED and ELL students!
