Moving Forward
At our last staff meeting, we modeled looking at data and utilizing the data dialog protocol as a way to engage in academic conversation. As with any strategies used in our classrooms to enable our students to critically think and perform at the highest level, the successful implementation of these strategies depends in LARGE part on the planning (what we do before the students enter our classrooms for the intended lessons).

As we embark on really honing in on becoming effective as a entire school staff in this area, it is essential that we have a clear vision/clear thoughts on our first steps in planning effective lessons--embedded with opportunities for our students to engage in academic discourse. We as a staff would really be served well by taking the time to get the planning phase correct. Below, I have attached  a newsletter for curriculum, instruction, and assessment called In-Sight (only a 5 minute read) that speaks to: the reasons why, getting started with, activities to foster, and next steps after initial academic discourse has occurred.

We have some key ingredients that make us a great candidate for success in this area (200 students, smaller teacher to student ratios, shorter school days, college and career tech, mental health clinician, community partners , and a wonderful teaching staff)! Moving forward, lets make the next move a Power Move!

Have a Great 5th Week!

GREAT THINGS HAPPENING AT SY@FHS AND SY@ AHS

Tenty's window for PBIS.  She shared all students contributed and the students who were absent and left out of the class picture were SAD... which means they care they MISSED school

Greg's class participating in KAHOOT as a review for the upcoming test:)  

Observing Dean participate in an activity where students were engaged in verbal conversations around a poem.  Dean pointed out the two posters hanging in his room that HIGHLIGHT the stages of ACADEMIC conversations...LAST ONE says my idea BUILDS on.....AWESOME:)))

****Tenty's genuine passion towards a student and his grandparents during an IEP where she translated for the team and built an instant connection with grandparents and student.  After the meeting the student, who at first was not interested in ANY WORK AT ANYTIME, asked Tenty if he could go to her room with her to get make-up work:))

***** Sarah Schneider for taking on ASD for SY@FHS and is BUILDING lessons for students to work on around the behavior they engaged in to earn them detention... Students reflect and learn ALTERNATIVES to behavior.

*****Kelly for ALL her hard work getting MAPP testing make-ups organized:)
