1) Students extend class discussions by building on one another’s ideas.

2) Weigh multiple perspectives

before drawing a conclusion

During the work period student may receive the same task but different scaffolds

For us, I want to "Provide opportunities for students to conduct error analysis that
include an explanation of their
conclusions."

We can be more intentional with the texts we incorporate into our units, regarding culture and how we promote students to relate to the text.

# data[].attributes.body
During the work time include student choice. Student choice can be incorporated anywhere in the lesson. Also, include flexible student group based on levels, backgrounds, test scores etc

# data[].attributes.body
Share interests, cultural backgrounds and personal histories in positive and productive ways; students can see themselves represented in dynamic ways across the curriculum.

Create a pleasant and inviting atmosphere that allows for students to feel comfortable displaying work of their own. This will also encourage student ownership in the classroom.

-Teachers and deans meeting together with students to resolve issues
"Weigh multiple perspectives before drawing a conclusion"
-We want teachers to have the most power - removing a student in the moment is fine and we're here to support you, but we are also here to support you in rebuilding relationships with students, improving classroom management, whatever the case may be.
-We can support teachers in calls home, but when we don't observe the misbehaviors directly, it's sometimes difficult. It's best when we can all come together and support each other

Over the years we've been working on selecting instructional materials that represent and affirm student
identities but we're not quite 100% there yet.

Creating new formative assessment techniques to incorporate into lesson (Warm up and exit slip) to assess student understanding and comfort level with lesson.

# data[].attributes.body
-We don't hold grudges
-We are here to encourage students to demonstrate growth
-We need to give ALL of our students a taste of what success looks like (we believe all students should be invited to the class trip so that they know what's at stake)

1. Students work collaboratively
toward goals and hold each other
accountable in supportive ways.

2. Norms or classroom protocols are posted visually so all students can access clear expectations.

We can use more formative assessment techniques to assess the student understanding during the lesson.

We want to work to provide more scaffolds for groups while working on the same task.

In addition, we want to Incorporate student feedback in developing curriculum and setting classroom policies.  There are many texts in the curriculum we aren't using currently.  Perhaps, we can have students preview the different readings and have a choice.

# data[].attributes.body
-We ask "Why?" when students misbehave
-We hold our boundaries and teach our students to respect them, but also to build their own
-We get to know the kids; we learn where they're coming from, who they are, and who we can help them be.

Trips often change our perspective on life. That's why we all crave them and often experience major changes after we take them. Students should be invited to those types of trips especially Pocono Valley. We should look at outside trips as an extension of the classroom.
