You see the future of education as continuing in the tradition that has been established by previous generations. • Skeptic •  The quality of instruction is what matters most.

  17. In Other Words

  18. Making the Connection - Example 4th Grade – Sample ELA Lesson Sample Student Outcome: Students demonstrate understanding of a text or texts by working together to identify and ask significant questions to clarify various points of view. EXAMPLE: Students participate in literature circle discussions of a chapter from a book they have read and for which they prepare open-ended discussion questions. They use a voice recorder to record their discussion. They then listen to the recording, evaluating the effectiveness of points raised in response to the questions, insights shared, and balance of participation. The recording is published as a podcast with accompanying reflections on the quality of the discussion.
