Action Item
Instruction instruction instruction. The thing that struck me in most of the classrooms I visited is that teachers are staying with their routines and structures to maximize time and to target specific instructional goals.
This is not the time to let up or think we have crossed the finish line. Traditionally some of the best instruction occurs in May because everyone recognizes the seriousness of the times. This is the time to teach like it is May and make a difference in these children's lives by helping them meet their instructional goals.
Thanks for all who are teaching like it is MAY!
