It has been reinforced that giving kids compliments keeps them going. I always try to "notice" what the kids are doing well, so others will be inspired as well!

Watching the sample conference was very helpful. I look forward to trying out some of the note taking forms.

I love the idea of a compliment conference and tracking their goals/nudges for reading.

My main takeaway were the keys to effective feedback. This is a tool that can help me ensure that I’m providing feedback that serves a larger purpose for students and parents, especially with it being ongoing.

Should scheduling conferences with students about their reading be based on their needs and skills or should they be done in any order?

I look forward to using the instructional information in the Star Ren data to help form strategy groups.

An important take away for me was when it was mentioned to save the mini resources and materials you create for these strategy groups. You are right, these will not be the last group of kids that will need help on these specific strategies.

I like the idea of students reflecting on their reading, setting goals, then signing up for a small group that best matches their goals.

Thinking of different target areas for art that students could "sign up" for such as cutting skills, painting skills etc. I like the agency idea and allowing a time for students to freely explore a target skill of their choice.

Groups are a fluid object that adjust to the active needs of students rather than what we think students need based on reading levels.

Specials classes could have the students sign up for their own small groups for skill practice also.

It's important to introduce the focal point for the small group and introduce strategies for students to use, but it is also important to provide students with why it is a skill that will help them and why they should use it.

It is very helpful in targeting individual needs of student and building strategy based on the student's need.

Compass Points Reflection - Teachers G3 - G5

E - Exciting    W- Wondering    N - Need to Know   S- Suggestion

Please add your thoughts and reflections inside the boxes, using a bullet point for each addition. We will do this as grade level bands.

E - EXCITING: What excites you about teaching reading?

Reading has never been my favorite subject, but thinking about modeling more, particularly regarding annotations, is exciting.

W - WONDERINGS: What is your next wondering about teaching reading?

I’m wondering how to get not-so-deep thinkers to think deeper when cognitive ability hinders.

N - NEED TO KNOW: What additional information and/or resources would be helpful at this point?

I need to actually take the time to go back and look at the anchor charts on the padlet and use those ideas in my teaching.

S - SUGGESTION FOR MOVING FORWARD: What are your team’s next steps?

Using kernels in book clubs, making more anchor charts for visual learning.
