Big Idea #1: High Reliability is a measurement process. It’s knowing what’s working and what needs more attention. Discipline and Consistency. #MarzanoHRS
Organizational integrity is the commitment to doing the right work and measuring/knowing it’s working. High Reliability. #marzanoHRS @NorwalkSchools
Attending HRS Institute this week. Can’t wait for the learning! #MarzanoHRS @NorwalkSchools
Thinking about the big impact of a small little addition to instruction - giving students time to reflect. @NorwalkSchools thelearnerlab.com/two-ways-t…
- Assessing is finding out what students know and what misconceptions they might have.
- Grading is evaluating students’ work and giving it some kind of mark.

2nd graders in Mrs. Greenslade's room are working on fact fluency to twenty. Students are using strategies like doubles and doubles plus/minus one to build relationships with numbers and become fluent with addition and subtraction strategies!🧮#wonder #growinglearnersandleaders

DayofAI @HeartlandAEA I was reminded of suno.com to create a song - create topic, in a particular genre, featuring a particular instrument... so fun and copyright free music with a personalized theme.
Idea for AI in instruction: Have ChatGPT/Gemini, create an analogy or explain a concept in simpler terms when students are struggling to grasp a concept. Have students write the same prompt and discuss all the analogies as a class to refine thinking.
