  1. G. E. A. R. S. Growing Educators, Achieving Results with Students October 25, 2017

  2. Mission In Avondale, every student will grow as a thinker, problem solver and communicator to pursue a future without limits.

  3. Affirming our Beliefs We believe all children are capable of success – No exceptions. We connect all children to caring adults to reveal and grow the possibilities. We prepare students for their future by time traveling to allow children to see their potential in four destinations and to plan for it today. We are a district of Hope.

  5. Passion and Commitment for Educational Excellence Digging Deeper with Research-Based Strategies What do we want students to know and be able to do? How will we know when they know it? ALL Means ALL Prepared Especially for the Collaborative Learning Network of AVONDALE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT by Dan Mulligan, flexiblecreativity.com October 2017 CONTENT without PURPOSE is only TRIVIA. What will we do to make sure they know and can do it? “The difference between who you are and what you want to be is what you do.”~Bill Phillips,2006

  7. AssessmentThere are two reasons why we assess:~to inform instructional decisions~to encourage students to try • In the section ‘What I think’ of your Think Pad: • Record one or your most effective strategies • Why do you think it is effective? • Enjoy thinking…

  8. 4 – second partner (Networking) Introduce yourself and share what you ‘do’. Take turns sharing your most effective strategy. Please record your new best friend’s strategy in the section ‘What my partner thinks’ on your Think Pad to bring back to your team. PLEASE STAY with YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND. If you are a number one: Please bring your handout, Think Pad, and a pen and find a new friend in the room. SMILE… Please number-off at your table in groups of two. If you are a number two: Stay seated and raise a hand until a new friend has joined you. SMILE…
