Personalized Learning Check In
"Tinkering is a powerful form of learning by doing, an ethos shared by the rapidly expanding maker community and many educators. It celebrates the best of what it means to be human. One of the most endearing things about the maker movement is how many children are celebrated as heroes, leaders, and innovators." (Martinez, Invent to Learn)
Educator Effectiveness Check In
Literacy Check In
Also, a reminder about the excellent resources that are part of our district website. Today, I wanted to highlight out "Beliefs" about Literacy as a district:
We believe:
- Proficiency in literacy is critical
- The Howard-Suamico School District is the primary literacy leader in our community
- Schools in the Howard-Suamico School District create a culture of literacy
- Continuity in literacy instruction must be appropriate to student strengths and needs
- Appropriate intervention is critical for student literacy development
- Teachers are mentored and prepared to provide high quality literacy instruction
- Administrators actively support the literacy plan
- Families and communities play an integral role in literacy development
