@EducatingChamps Schmoker’s comments were spot on! However, the challenge of how to simplify school improvement is a difficult undertaking in today’s school climate of data rich “proof.” Creating a simple vision and leading stake holders to buy in is critical.
@EducatingChamps My suggestion would be to ensure every teacher demonstrates “invitational education”. Whether it is a digital remote platform or face to face, students have to feel invited. When done effectively, I.E. creates excitement for students in school, igniting their will to succeed!
Contemplating curriculum and realizing the power it has of within a society was a humbling experience. Learning new specific, concrete strategies for planning to ensure the understanding of my students was invaluable.
