Moral Imperative.....It's Gotta be about why we are here!!
This past week was a busy but productive week @ JROB: with Friday night Ice Skating, CIV Visitation, 100th Day Celebration festivities, Math Night Fun, Boys Basket Ball Win, Report Card/Achievement Reports, Professional Release days, FLA fieldtrip, and Girls Track Western League Championship "3Peat"....WOWWWWW we really needed that 3 day weekend to catch up....
“We can have the latest technology or the best curriculum, but if we are not obsessed with who learners are, how to best serve them, and how to partner with them to move forward, we can fail to make the impact that we desire...”
Thank you for all you do to make every day....#memorablemeaningfulmeasurable for our JROB community.
Digging Deeper into our Collaborative Inquiry Feedback
The CIV was/is an opportunity for us to take a "snapshot" view into our daily implementation of instructional practices to provide clarity to daily learning within a CCSS classroom. The observation teams measured our work around Teacher Clarity with standards, correlation of standard to task/text, and student understanding within task/text.
The observing teams provided feedback to 5 questions from their walkthrough of JROB classroom environments. 3 of the 5 questions responses are shared below:
#1 - Teacher clarity with daily learning intention: what, Why and How (Visible and or shared with students): 82% of Classroom showed evidence
#2 - Student Understanding/task associated with daily learning intention: What, Why and How: 74% of students knew what and why of the learning when asked/prompted or demonstrated through the work
#3 - Is the task/text of engagement by students standards based and grade level appropriate?

Based on the observing teams feedback and ILT discussion/debrief continued PD understanding (What/Why/How) is needed along with more specific feedback from admin during informal walkthroughs.
