Measuring our impact
This week teachers and leaders are reflecting on the first weeks of the school and the important artifacts in classrooms to support the learners at our school. In week 4 we celebrated 100% of our 22 classrooms displaying co constructed learning walls and evidence that teachers are ensuring the important resources are aligned to the current English unit.
The goal for students this term aligned to the 2024 Annual Implementation Plan is 100% of students can answer Q 1 & Q 2 of the 5 Q’s for learners. Q1 What am I learning? (Which is understanding of the learning intention for the current English unit. Q 2 How am I going? (What success criteria are students working on to reach their goal on English?) Next week leaders will be conducting classroom observations of the beginning of the lesson. We are looking for the clarity provided for the lesson intention and student engagement at the wall. Staff will be provided feedback to celebrate the great practices we observe and possible next steps.
