We must ensure that sufficient resource is available to guarantee their success.” This would include PD for educators, equitable access to consistent curriculum and resources, increased support staff, and parent education. ]]> 2018-02-28 02:12:33 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/236232939 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/237258321 Equity in education is recognizing the diverse backgrounds of our students and leveraging their knowledge as assets in the classroom. By promoting skills in critical thought and dialogue, we provide tools that will help them be successful as they work toward their future goals, which are geared towards the individual student. It is also recognizing student’s current levels of understanding and utilizing a broad range of strategies that allow multiple access points. Additionally, it is acknowledging that each student’s experience outside of school is unique, and so must be provide all the necessary tools for learning and success within the school.]]> 2018-03-02 02:24:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/237258321 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241640628 Equity is about providing access to students of all abilities to accomplish their goals to fulfill their dreams. Obstacles such as socioeconomic status, culture of poverty and adverse childhood experiences place challenges on the path toward success. Through strategies and tools in our kit we must meet these challenges head on in order for individualized success to occur.]]> 2018-03-13 21:34:09 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241640628 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241644549 Equity in education guarantees all students have access to learning despite personal hurdles, obvious and less obvious. Practices are put into place to support students emotionally and developmentally, while considering cultural attributes and assets which augment learning. ]]> 2018-03-13 21:52:27 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241644549 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241645629 Equity is removing the language demands, building background that students may not otherwise have, offering students differing opportunities to share what they know and ensuring they are all on a level playing field.]]> 2018-03-13 21:57:27 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241645629 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241646515 Equity in education does not necessarily mean equal, rather it means equal access and individualized supports (based on the individual needs of the student/group). It also means help students construct a toolbox that is unique to them irrespective to what their parents may or may not have had. It also helps them to deconstruct the negative cycle of expectations and at the same time meet the students where they are at.]]> 2018-03-13 22:01:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/241646515 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/242096746 To create equity in our classrooms, we will use multiple ways to consistently monitor student understanding. We will make content accessible by posting some vocabulary in students' home languages. Furthermore, students will be involved in the planning and implementation of the physical space of the classroom to represent a shared learning environment of equity. ]]> 2018-03-14 20:13:42 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/242096746 scarlson22 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/242975582 We would define equity beyond the OEIB definition. We would like the definition to take into account the holistic learner. We believe students are a sum of their experiences, as well as cultural background, and personal attributes. We believe that all students can and will learn through exploration. NGSS provides the framework for accomplishing this for every learner. Through NGSS lessons students have the opportunity to learn science collaboratively with others while assuming responsibility for personal growth. Discovery is emphasized and applicable to life. ]]> 2018-03-16 18:48:33 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/242975582 https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/243824784 Equity is when all students are given opportunities and skills to access learning and education by embracing the diverse knowledge and experiences each student brings to school, allowing students to develop tools that will be used in their futures.

This means providing rich science instruction that engages the learner in various modes.

It begins by embracing, honoring, and valuing the diverse backgrounds, knowledge, culture, and experiences that each student brings to our learning communities. Equity is not about giving students access to what we feel is right, but instead taking what they already know to guide their learning and discoveries of science throughout their learning journeys. Science instruction will be rich, engaging, and thought provoking while being relevant to the learner. ]]> 2020-08-12 21:32:46 UTC https://padlet.com/cristina_trecha/6nj2w3ggqhe1/wish/677861899
