Next Move: Reset expectations to ensure they are specific, concrete, sequential and observable. |
|
4. Teacher uses small group time to complete one of the three: direct teach, reteach, or address misconceptions based on the trends in data identified in planning. Data Driven Instruction |
Next Move: Plan two small group lessons that align to the learning objective at the collaboration, and technology station (one standard for all three stations). |
|
5. Teacher checks for understanding and sometimes gives general feedback. Student Feedback |
Next Move: Create a check for understanding to measure student mastery and give feedback to the group. |
|
Collaboration Station
Next Moves:

7. Students independently complete tasks aligned to daily class learning objective. Varied Learning Experiences |
Next Move: Plan one activity that aligns to the learning objective at the teacher and technology station (one standard for all three stations). |
|
8. Students access on-demand feedback on their own. Student Feedback |
Next Move: Create a system for students to access an example or provide an answer key to check their work. |
Technology Station
Software makes instructional decisions/Software dominant
9. Students exercise routines and procedures that minimize disruptions. Routines + Procedures |
Next Move: Explicitly teach, practice and post routines for accessing devices and software. |
10. Students troubleshoot and access the online task. Routines + Procedures |
Next Move: Create and post a procedure for students to follow when devices aren’t working. |
|
11. Students track progress on software only using metrics of time or lessons completed. Data Driven Instruction |
Next Move: Create a student-facing document to track minutes completed oor lessons completed on software. |
