The Power of a Teacher
I have come to the frightening conclusion. I am the decisive element in the classroom. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or hear. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated, a child humanized or dehumanized.”
Dr. Haim Ginott

If she only knew …
that I had to get my little brother up and ready for school this morning, she wouldn’t have to fuss at me for being
late.
![Page 5: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles .

If she only knew…
that I didn’t get to eat supper last night, she wouldn’t have taken the extra cereal that Chris gave me at breakfast. She said, “Only one cereal for each student. That’s the rule
at this school.”

If she only knew...
that I had to watch my little brother last night while momma was at the park with her friends, she wouldn’t have
punished me for not getting my homework done.
![Page 7: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles .

If she only knew...
that I like to make stuff during science class, she would let us make rockets like Mrs. Bagen’s class. Instead, we read about rockets from a book.
![Page 8: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles .

If she only knew...
that her rules are as long as the lines at the city pool, she would make a shorter list that we could remember.
![Page 9: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles . What is Educational Equity & Excellence Educational Equity is the belief that access to quality instruction](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040903/5e757debe689ff327e304af7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
If she only knew...
If she only knew that my daddy left me and momma when I was two, she would stop telling me that she’s going to call my daddy for a
conference.
![Page 10: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles . What is Educational Equity & Excellence Educational Equity is the belief that access to quality instruction](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040903/5e757debe689ff327e304af7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
If she only knew...
that I get really upset when Leonard talks about my momma, her biggest rule would be,
“No talking about other people’s mommas.”
![Page 11: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles . What is Educational Equity & Excellence Educational Equity is the belief that access to quality instruction](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040903/5e757debe689ff327e304af7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
If she only knew...
how much I love to draw, she would make me the class poster maker. Instead, she doesn’t let me because my handwriting isn’t so
great.
![Page 12: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles . What is Educational Equity & Excellence Educational Equity is the belief that access to quality instruction](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040903/5e757debe689ff327e304af7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
If she only knew...
that I need to talk if I’m going to learn, she
wouldn’t send me to the principal’s office so much. She says my talking is disruptive in the classroom. She’s the only person talking. In my opinion, that’s
disruptive.
![Page 13: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles . What is Educational Equity & Excellence Educational Equity is the belief that access to quality instruction](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040903/5e757debe689ff327e304af7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
If she only knew...
that when she gets mad and screams at the class it
scares me.
Last Year, Mrs. Stewley never raised her voice at me. Mrs. Stewley was as quiet as a crook after midnight.
When Mrs. Stewley talked, kids listened.
![Page 14: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles .

If she only knew...
that some if the boys are trying to get me to join their gang she
would help me say, “No.”
![Page 15: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles . What is Educational Equity & Excellence Educational Equity is the belief that access to quality instruction](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040903/5e757debe689ff327e304af7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
If she only knew...
how much I like to run, she would have told me about last week’s track team
sign-up.
![Page 16: Implementing Response to Intervention (RtI) to Ensure ... · Dr. Wade Nobles . What is Educational Equity & Excellence Educational Equity is the belief that access to quality instruction](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040903/5e757debe689ff327e304af7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
If she only knew...
how much I need my mentor here at school,
she would let me see him more.
He thinks I’m cool.

If she only knew...I
know stuff that she doesn’t know. I know where to get bus tokens.
I know what time the city bus passes the school.
I know the best place to buy a pop.I know what time the sprinkler comes on at
the park.I know what it means to be “dissed.”I know how to live without electricity.
I know how to entertain an entire room of people with my personality and humor. I know what churches have the best
rummage sales.I know how to stay safe in my neighborhood. I know how to keep my clothes from being
stolen at the Laundromat.
I know a lot more than she thinks I do.

Greatest barrier to learning…
is not what students knows, but what teachers believes!

What is Educational Equity & Excellence
Educational Equity is the belief that access to
quality instruction for all students will be
achieved when the results of deliberate actions
to close the Equity Gap becomes the driving
force of the organization.

What do we know
There is no other information we need to
know to close the racial achievement
gap.
The question we need to ask!
“Why haven’t we taken action on what
works for students of color?”

What does the data say?
• School instructional programs are not
responsive to the needs of all students.
• Schools do not respond quickly enough
even when they suspect students need
additional instructional support.

Race does not impact student
achievement! It’s how educators view
and react to race that impacts student
achievement.

Guiding principles and
belief systems of RtI• Believe that all students can learn
• The essential variable…
– is time in quality instruction
• Tier I
– base classroom must address the needs of all students
– includes understanding the assets of the student(s)
• Tier II
– support necessary skills for Tier I
• Tier II 1/2

We require intervention, not offer remediation during the instructional day!

Early Intervention
Student needs must be identified as early as possible and the structure
must quickly respond.
Old way: student must fit into our structure (teacher driven)“fail first model”
New way: our structure must fit student needs (based on data)

Guided Principles for
Equity Teams
• Equity is not a strategy! It is a mind-set!– Develop a mind-set of reflection before you ask for the strategy
• We can’t fix what we will not recognize.– Display disaggregated gaps in school wide and department achievement
– Be explicit and overt in articulating the area we will address, by race
• We are willing to lead and take part in honest discussions about race– Understanding the impact of Race in adults’ performance and student
achievement
• We let the data speak guided by research.– Invest time, energy and focus on strategies guided by data and with evidence
of success
– Let the data be the catalysts for the discussion of race and pedagogy
• We create opportunities to hear the voice of our students and then we listen– Take action on student voice data
– Use interview data to develop responsive lessons and instruction
