Signature Strategies:
-
Use principles of UDL to design learning that provides challenge, attainability, and access to grade-level standards for each scholar.
-
Engage Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) in a cycle of inquiry using multiple measures to inform and adjust instruction while disaggregating data through an equity lens (interim common assessments-district and building level).
- Build capacity of teachers, leaders, and school staff to utilize their knowledge of scholars, backwards planning, and the PLC framework to determine what scholars need to know, how they will know scholars are learning it, how they will respond when scholars do not learn, and how they will respond if the scholar already knows it.
