How will this small shift impact student learning? burkm12 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2572004120 2023-04-28 16:16:49 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2572004120 Identify 1 - 2 "heavy lifts" (challenges/obstacles) that may make using Lexia English tricky for you and/or your students next year. burkm12 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2572005586 2023-04-28 16:18:12 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2572005586 Burning Questions/Thoughts/Comments (Optional) burkm12 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2572006551 2023-04-28 16:19:07 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2572006551 Training Session https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2637391194 I found the session on the teacher resources most helpful. I was not aware of the speaking and listening resources previously. I want to be sure to incorporate these small group lessons at least two times a week this coming year.]]> 2023-07-03 22:19:44 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2637391194 Small Shift https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2637391362 One small shift to which I look forward is using the Student Goal Setting Worksheet I learned about in the Launch session. It's important that students have a stake in their learning. I'm hoping that this sheet will help them to be accountable and feel success from achieving reasonable goals.]]> 2023-07-03 22:20:32 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2637391362 Heavy Lift https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2637391462 I think that a tricky challenge will be in time management. Our phonics time can take quite a good bit of time when done correctly. It will be a challenge to fit more Lexia English in with time for our reading series, writing, vocabulary building, opportunities for speech, and now social studies while balancing the needs of varied language proficiency levels. I will need to integrate as much as possible.]]> 2023-07-03 22:21:02 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2637391462 As I am new to ELD, I found these training sessions incredibly helpful. It allowed me to see the program from the student perspective so that I can better understand what they are experiencing. It also provided me with resources to help launch the program in my classroom. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2640478346 2023-07-07 12:39:03 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2640478346 I would like to use the use the Student Goal Setting sheet as this will help motivate the students. I have used iReady and Lexia in the past and the students thrive on receiving their certificates. This provides them with an opportunity to be accountable for their learning. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2640479102 2023-07-07 12:41:01 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2640479102 Personally, the heavy lift will be learning to manage all of the students varying levels and making sure everyone's needs are met. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2640479420 2023-07-07 12:41:55 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2640479420 K.Perkins https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2654951558 I found the Lexia English training on the resources to be the most helpful. I did not realize that Lexia English had such a wide range of both classroom and at home resources available. I like the slide decks and incorporating them into my lessons. I also liked how you can track the students progress with the program. ]]> 2023-08-02 18:11:04 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2654951558 The reacher resources are awesome. I like that there are resources to help families understand the program. The hope is to involve the parents so that the students work on the program some at home as well. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655080046 2023-08-03 00:25:44 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655080046 The heavy lift is 100% time! I'd like to become more proficient with the student reports for group planning purposes. I am confident with a bit more time using the program that I will navigate the resources more easily. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655081286 2023-08-03 00:28:13 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655081286 Gabby Dallazia https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655579284 I found the Class Level Reports to be most helpful. I plan on using this report to monitor my students' progress weekly and use the supplemental resources to reinforce instruction when needed.]]> 2023-08-03 16:10:47 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655579284 Gabby Dallazia https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655579821 I am excited to use the supplemental resources and lessons to hold small group instruction with my ELs. ]]> 2023-08-03 16:11:37 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655579821 Gabby Dallazia https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655580938 Time. Depending on the week and material we are studying, it may be harder to hold small group AND get students on Lexia for the appropriate amount of time. I plan on trying to get my students on about 2-3 times a week. I hope to hold small group sessions 2 times a week depending on student need.]]> 2023-08-03 16:13:57 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655580938 Debbie Sartwell https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655597927 The training slides were helpful as were the downloads. ]]> 2023-08-03 16:50:01 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655597927 Debbie Sartwell https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655598354 Small Shift--> adding small group instruction/ intervention focused on Lexia data during WIN time.]]> 2023-08-03 16:51:21 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655598354 Debbie Sartwell https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655598706 I'm not sure that I will be able to pull my ELD 4 WIN kids 2x a week. But I will make it work with the time that I have. Something is better than nothing. ]]> 2023-08-03 16:52:21 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2655598706 I found the train sessions to be informed and easy to get started. The videos and extra resources were helpful. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2656480464 2023-08-05 14:08:16 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2656480464 Not sure of the small shifts, since I am new to this resource. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2656480697 Nicholas Walton]]> 2023-08-05 14:08:53 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2656480697 Timing seems to be a challenge with this program. https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2656480844 Nick Walton]]> 2023-08-05 14:09:32 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2656480844 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2659679942 I am excited to use The Resource Hub!  It will be helpful to use the already created resources to communicate with families about Lexia English.  Using the classroom posters will be a great visual to set expectations and the already created Google Slides will be awesome to launch Lexia English and to use to teach lessons.

There are so many materials to support students and teachers. I was happy to see that parent resources are available in a number of different languages. I hope additional languages will be available in the near future.]]> 2023-08-18 02:42:03 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2665394838 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2665404337 Small Shift: I am looking forward to using the classroom posters, character rewards stickers, and achievement certificates. I hope these materials will motivate the students to do their best. The certificates will also inform parents of their child's progress.]]> 2023-08-18 02:51:30 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2665404337 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2665427766 Heavy Lift: 
Time will be the biggest challenge. This year we have many new things to implement: a new schedule (shorter classes with some grade levels), WIN periods (for math & RELA), the new National Geographic reading program & the online platform, the addition of social studies to the RELA class, and the roll out of Lexia English for all of our students. ]]> 2023-08-18 03:17:23 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2665427766 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2666243221 I found the training sessions very helpful. I feel much more confident navigating the Resources Hub. I especially loved the slide decks that have been added. I will definitely be using those to get started.]]> 2023-08-19 03:25:14 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2666243221 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2666244036 I would like to incorporate the student achievement certificates, posters, and stickers. I think utilizing the certificates and stickers will hold the students more accountable, while also adding a feeling of accomplishment.]]> 2023-08-19 03:27:55 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2666244036 https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2666244987 I think one heavy lift will be managing my time. As we all know, there is never enough time in a day. Making time to utilize all of our programs can be challenging at times, but I am optimistic that a well structured plan will help.]]> 2023-08-19 03:31:41 UTC https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2666244987 Gabby Dallazia https://padlet.com/burkm12/hjrrssxya0ts5g5y/wish/2666524503 Time.
