The majority of his classes are learn/repeat lecture classes.  He, and many others, are failing and disengaged because of this.  Is there a plan of attack for schools to implement Generations?

How is it that schools are being allowed to disregard his vision? Is there an expectation for admin across the district as it relates to our superintendent's vision?]]> 2018-11-16 00:00:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mhaggstr/4dvilxtutetr/wish/305073832 Authentic Learning https://padlet.com/mhaggstr/4dvilxtutetr/wish/305074346 How can I help teachers embrace authentic tasks when the expectation by admin is very traditional for reading instruction? 20-25 min whole group/shared and then guided reading (every kid every day).
