Our team enjoyed a day engaging in dialogue across the district and digging deeper into our strategic plan. A big takeaway for next year is personalized learning and knowing students’ strengths and areas if growth can both be used to educate the whole child.
The amazing race is as AWESOME. Our tasks allowed us to be self directed, collaborative, critical thinkers and empathetic.
We will continue to learn more about explicit phonics instruction and use blended learning!
We are really excited to learn more about the cornerstone performance tasks. We love how they build upon each other and allow students to demonstrate their learning in a way that is best for them!
The amazing race was AWESOME! We used all of the long term goals that we have for our students, including being collaborative, thinking critically, etc. One goal we have is to implement blended learning and to obtain professional development related to blended learning.
As a group, we want to learn more about Blended Learning and how to implement it in our classrooms. The Blended Learning Arc will benefit both teachers and students.
