Imagine having a 20 minute school-wide intervention block dedicated to daily targeted instruction……
how do you think this would impact student achievement?
Collaboration in grade level teams with support staff (What do we want each student to know and be able to do?)
Analyzing student formative and summative assessments (How do we know? What evidence do we have of learning?)
Flexible and fluid grouping for differentiated instruction (How do we respond if they struggle or don’t learn? How do we respond if they know it?)
