So we put a keyboard in the our middle school cafeteria during morning drop off and suddenly our students seized the opportunity to show off their talents. It’s awesome

@bhvpa @pamleorg @AMLE It’s a great document Bruce, decades and decades of research behind it. Thank you for introducing me to AMLE so many years ago.

It’s happening right before my eyes. Teachers collaborating is magic!

[Steve Dissinger @SteveDissinger]

Soon this auditorium will be filled with teachers. One of the most important days of the year. Today we begin our book study - The Effective Middle School #Pattonproud

The Energy Bus by Jon Gordon. I can’t wait to get this bus rolling!

I still get excited when I get to buy a new lunch box and new clothes to start a new school year. Here’s to New Beginnings at CFPMS. I can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow!
GO HAWKS!#pattonproud

Super excited about the new UCFSD turf fields going in behind Patton Middle School. More opportunities for kids to be outside!

Let's revisit this in September - great ideas about how to structure SLCs.

What happens when you encourage kids to take charge of their learning journey by sharing their proud moments and their growth opportunities with their families in a conference? They rise to the occasion and shine. ✨

Spisak, Shiffer, and Kropp - you are amazing. I am energized by our discussion about blended learning at Patton! Clarity, Standardization, Instructional Time (less teacher talk), Design.

[Steve Dissinger @SteveDissinger]

This is excellent. A simple to use checklist for teachers and administrators.

Been holding back, but three times now in the last week I’ve had 30 min conversations with my son, successfully completing a 9 month program, and choosing to go into an aftercare follow up program, recovering from heroin addiction. My heart is blessed, #Covid_19 be damned.

Happy National Student-Athlete Day! Our student-athletes represent a commitment to Unionville on and off the field. We miss watching our track and field athletes compete this spring! @goUathletics

[Steve Dissinger @SteveDissinger]

allow re-learning and re-assessing for full credit

[Steve Dissinger @SteveDissinger]

Assessment is required for learning, grades are not.

[Steve Dissinger @SteveDissinger]

Assessment is anything we do to gather evidence in order to provide feedback and inform instruction. Grading refers to the reporting of a students final proficiency only. Grades can get in the way of a good assessment.
