Jan 25 to Jan 29


Learning Targets Target Learning
Last week, Susan and I visited Glacier View classrooms. All the classrooms we entered had Learning Targets posted where students could see. Here's what was written for Vanessa Ramsey's science class:


I will explain what is meant by the term 'pure substance' and be able to classify substances by whether they are pure or a mixture.

Did you notice?
  • Student centered = I will
  • Bloom's Action Word = explain
  • Specific GLE = the term 'pure substance'
  • Bloom's Action Word = classify
  • Specific GLE = substances by whether they are pure or mixture
What a powerhouse Learning Target for learning!

If your evaluation cycle is Long Form, please see Susan or Rebecca to get the second 30-minute observation scheduled.

Every Monday Matters
Last week was a roller coaster ride of emotions. Thanks for all you did to take care of each other and yourself. Your strength as individuals and as a collective group are remarkable. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
