🌍 When we ignore differences that are a part of #students' identity, it's like saying, "I don't see you," or "I'm uncomfortable with who you are." Ignoring differences, like race, neurodiversity, language, gender, isn't the route to an #inclusive climate. #LeadInclusion
🗣️ We all know "class participation" usually means "speaking up." But speaking up isn't the same as engagement. Let's be inclusive of those who are more introspective, #introverts, those with social anxiety, and those uncomfortable speaking up. #LeadInclusion#EdLeaders
In lieu of flowers, we ask for contributions to be made to a memorial foundation dedicated to preserving Denise's legacy in music education at https://t.co/QoXfetJdVl.
The research is clear: End of unit tests are far less effective than ongoing, shorter checks for learning. The best strategy is ~2 x's a week where learners seek to "best themselves" and watch their own improvement grow over time. #howtolearn#patternseeker
How do you make children enjoy writing? By using Playful writing skills you can make writing more playful and intuitive by building a 3D model of their story. In that way, they get the chance to act the story out. Sounds fun, right? #InternationalLiteracyDay2023
The assessment process must:
1. match what we say we value in the classroom.
2. be student-centred.
3. be focused on growth and learning.
4. be reflective of the learning that has been done in the classroom.
5. be an ongoing conversation between many stakeholders.
📌 Summative assessments don't have to be a formal test or project. In fact, formal assessments are often the least valid representation of learning. Our informal assessment, even conversations with students, can and should be used to summarize learning. #LeadInclusion
