Pretty great analogy between coaching kids and accelerating kids and their learning from Sharon Kramer Sarah Schuhl

Yes, poverty matters to a degree.

The good thing is there are far more powerful things that we can utilize to guarantee learning then use poverty as an excuse for why kids can’t. Sharon Kramer Sarah Schuhl Solution Tree

Shifting our thinking --- seeing assessments as a valuable and needed process and not an event. Sharon Kramer

Yes, we can accelerate learning!

Acceleration becomes possible when grades know the 8-12 priority standards per subject and grade. It is these standards that we immediately intervene when kids aren't learning. It is also these that we connect to our current instruction. From Sharon Kramer #Equity

This makes so much sense - accelerating learning is NOT going quicker.

It happens when teams strategically embed prerequisite skills along w grade level Tier 1.

'To accelerate learning, educators shift their mindset from how far students are from proficiency... to how close they are. They sift from deficit thinking to strengths-based thinking.'

What message does your school send to all who enter?

Are we taking the right steps to build the culture we desire (or the one our mission statement states?)

What a great activity for staff to do to assess their current reality .. and plan 4 improvement.
Sharon Kramer Sarah Schuhl

This must be a full partnership so that students own their learning.

'Structural changes without cultural changes amount to little change, if any at all.'
