Make Math Moments Jon Orr Well put…Learning should be the target and behavioral norms should support the learning. It seems so obvious. Unfortunately, the goal in some classes has been behavioral modification, with classroom assessments designed to act in a supporting role.

Take a minute and watch this! Taking time to focus on what “good learning” should look like can make everything else so much easier. Learning should be an educator’s biggest factor when establishing the rest of their classroom expectations.

. Keenan Clark and I spent months building the Skills Based Classroom. We have 3 semesters of data showing this helps kids learn. Change can be scary, but change can also lead to great things.

We ended the summer with a little outing for the senior football players. Thank you to the National Guard for taking care of us today after working them out last week at the field. I appreciate your help in making us a better team! Special thanks to Coach Tuttle for coordinating!

Friday was “Math Fun Day” in our department. All math classes were suspended and classrooms were transformed into math games/experiments labs. Students chose between dice games, making paper airplanes, catapult designs and other activities. 100% participation and engagement.

“The amount of time we spent grading and the amount of time the kids spent on homework - we thought that maybe we could shift that time into other forms of assessment and practice.” - Keenan Clark teacherbilldavidson.com/podcast podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jak… Jake Towers Keenan Clark
