Implementation Check

Team,

I hope everyone had a chance to get outside and enjoy the sunshine yesterday, being in the sun is always a plus for me and this time of year, we are in the long stretch to Spring Break.  That being said, please remember staff members who are present each day from now until the end of the year get $100 added to your 2020-21 supply budget.

Implementation Checks

This week, take a few moments each day to check the level of implementation of the following three areas:

• Teaching and Learning --  Pushing all students to proficiency so they believe in their own power to achieve success
• Daily use of the classroom instructional framework for teaching, learning targets are posted, stated, and referred to throughout the lesson. 
• Use Journeys for reading and Envision for math instruction
• Students engage in rigorous work products -- what are they expected to do each day?
• There is daily formative assessment (exit slips) so that teachers can make instructional decisions for the next lesson.  
• Students receive timely feedback on how to improve their work.
• Current focus on measurement and geometry for the next three weeks.

• PBIS -- The foundation for continually improving our school-wide learning environment 
• Expectations for learning and behavior are set and reinforced with students daily -- you know it's in place when students are able to self-monitor and participate in a respectful environment, focused on learning goals and outcomes. 
• Daily use of Class Dojo -- school wide agreement
• You are able to maximize instructional time due to efficient transitions.
• Students know how to use the cool down area.

• Progress Monitoring -- Tracking and monitoring student progress towards proficient and distinguished performance
• Daily formative assessment aligned to learning target for each lesson
• Check assessments, provide feedback to tell students how to improve, make instructional adjustments to increase student learning
• Track each student's progress towards mastering the learning target
• Current focus on measurement and geometry for the next three weeks.
