Recap of the First Three Days

• We looked at our own and each others’ thoughts, input from our community, and what research says about what students need for the future

• We reviewed our ideas shown through the Medicine Wheel and Howard Gardner’s Five Minds

• We examined some ways to assess our students’ learning

The Purpose of Our Time Together

To set direction for education in our district.We are going to collaborate to co-create answers to three questions:1.What do we feel students need to know and be able to do for success in the future?2.How will we know? What evidence will convince us that our plan is working?3.What actions will we take to help students get there? How will we respond when students are not learning?

Our Objective of the Day:

• What actions will we take to help students get there?

• Today is about designing some of the pedagogical Pathways to support our district direction
