Instructional Environment
In creating an instructional environment consider using anchor charts and accountable talk to actively engage students, make meaning, and transfer learning.
Anchor charts are created with students during a mini-lesson giving them ownership over their own learning and to anchor the learning and thinking to create a context for building background. The anchor chart can be a path to validate student thinking, and a way to track student learning. The charts also allow for referencing prior learning, and learning that is built upon.
When conducting a class discussion using accountable talk the participants in the conversation are held accountable to give reasons and evidence for opinions and thoughts.
Use Accountable Discussion sentence stems at any point in the lesson to structure meaningful conversation:
- BEFORE A LESSON TO TAP INTO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE
- DURING A LESSON TO KEEP STUDENTS ENGAGED IN THINKING ABOUT THE TEXT
- AFTER A LESSON TO GET STUDENTS TO REFER BACK INTO THE TEXT TO FIND EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THEIR THINKING OR TO PROVE THEIR POINT
- WHEN DISCUSSING ANY CONCEPT IN WHICH STUDENTS SHOULD “EXPLAIN” OR “PROVE” THEIR THINKING
To Develop Every Child Into a Reader:
- Everyday a child reads something they choose to read.
- Every child reads accurately
- Every child reads something they understand.
- Every child writes something that is personal and meaningful daily.
- Every child talks with peers about reading and writing.
- Every child hears an adult reader read fluently.
Coolidge Elementary Academic Goals for 2017- 2018
- All Students WILL achieve academically.
- Reading: Increase reading proficiency by at least one grade level, and know their current F & P level.
- Math: Increase math achievement by 10% with 80% mastery of math facts on grade level.
- Writing: Increase writing proficiency by 15%
- Student Attendance: Increase student attendance to 98%.
- Increase Faculty Attendance to 98%
