My goal is to have the students use self-guided conferences in writing. I will have students work on writing pieces part by part and reviewing their writing more frequently, focusing on one or two aspects of their writing they want to improve. I will teach a mini lesson on self-guided conferences and implement the process. I will also ask students for feedback and try to guide my next conferencing using their feedback.

To make the website I started in the beginning of the year more student friendly.  I want to link other websites to the classroom website.  I envision math, reading, social studies, and science activities on the web site.  I also want to enhance the writing portion of the site.  I eventually want students to have ownership in the site.

Goal: Continue to implement, review, and model use of signposts throughout the language arts curriculum.

Action Step - Hold more conferences with their signposts sheet as a means to holding them more accountable. Asking the class to pull out and discuss their action steps will hold them more accountable.

# data[].attributes.body
Goal: To continue to implement the Signposts into students independent reading.

Action Step: To hold independent conferences on a weekly basis so each student is accountable for their independent reading. During conferences, I can understand their thinking as a reader as they discuss their thoughts about the book they are reading.

Goal: To incorporation critical thinking in Unit 5 Math, with elements of "uncertainty," unknown but authentic real world problems to solve.

Action Step: The fifth grade team developed a problem with zero scaffolding (however students do have prior knowledge of math skills). Students will attempt the problem. I will provide questions instead of answers. Students will have to use critical thinking and productive struggle to accomplish the task.
