A Review from September Objective:
We are learning to use our resources efficiently to meet the needs of every learner with
• RTI- Second year, more streamlined
• Curriculum Guides- Aligned to CCSS and new resources
• Assessment- Pre, Progress Monitoring, Formative, and Summative
![Page 4: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
January Objective:
We will create plans to incorporate more intentional use of
• Tier 1 instruction within RtI model
• Developing critical thinking in students
by clarifying our understandings and synthesizing information across multiple sources.

Response to Intervention
Tier One
Tier Two
Tier Three
Tier 1: Core instruction, district curriculum, Differentiation – ALL students
Tier 2: In addition to Tier 1 instruction students will receive intense, targeted interventions – some students
Tier 3: In addition to Tier 1 instruction students will receive intense, targeted interventions that are more frequent - few students
![Page 6: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Tier One Instruction: Meeting the Needs of All Leaners
• Data informed instruction
• Whole/Part/Whole model
• Small group instruction
• Eyes on Text vs. Activity Driven
• Test taking strategies
A steady diet of easy texts/tasks will not prepare students for the challenges they will face
![Page 7: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
How does the teacher support Tier 2 and Tier 3 students in Tier 1 instruction?
• Continue to provide Tier 1 instruction to all students
• Work with interventionists to create and support the SMART Goal
• Communicate via Intervention Notebook – any information that is pertinent to the SMART Goal
• Provide scaffolds to help students access the curriculum
![Page 8: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What is intervention?
• In addition to core instruction
• Not accommodations to core curriculum
• Focused on an area of concern
• Research based
• Systematically delivered
• Monitored
![Page 9: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Interventionist
• Meet the specific deficits of students using LLI, Do The Math, etc. to be successful with the curriculum
• Available for help and consultation
• Collect data
Together

Closure: What Stuck?
Tier One
Tier Two
Tier Three
One new thing I’m thinking about is…
![Page 11: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Using Curriculum and Resources
to Develop Critical Thinking
and Problem Solving Skills
![Page 12: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
4e. Teachers help students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills.
Teaching students the processes needed, requires us to • think aloud and model • give on-going feedback • provide opportunities for
implementation • and monitor progress
![Page 13: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
4e. Teachers help students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills.
Across the district, we tend to do really well with these indicators:
![Page 14: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
4e. Teachers help students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills.
In addition, we see many classrooms using Accountable Talk Stems to support student dialogue, and samples of student writing that focus on supporting their ideas with evidence.
![Page 15: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
4e. Teachers help students develop critical thinking and problem solving skills.
Consider using Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences and/or modalities within our curriculum to support students in using information in a new way (solving a real problem with an open-ended result, designing a habitat for an imaginary animal, transplanting a character into another story, plan a party using math!, etc.)

Grade Level Break Out Sessions
Pull up this PPT from http://www.edison.k12.nj.us/domain/1512
on the PB to guide you.
Follow the remaining slides to support your work.
Two classrooms will be used for each grade level. Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one classroom. Even-numbered in another same grade level classroom.
![Page 18: Elementary Department Faculty Meeting - Edison · Meeting the Needs of All Leaners ... Odd-numbered homeroom section teachers meet in one ... (basic to many parts organize)](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022030101/5b340b647f8b9aec518bb0b0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Each Breakout Session • Work in groups of 2-3 • Use any resource of your choice
– Curriculum guide on line or paper – Teacher Edition of any content – Internet for searching
• Refer to the slide regarding critical thinking and problem solving to review examples (It’s repeated on the next slide)
• Collect or brainstorm possible learning experiences for an upcoming unit or chapter that will support teachers in developing critical thinking and/or problem solving skills in their students. An example is provided two slides down (Planning a party).

Example of a Learning Experience to Support Development of Critical Thinking or Problem Solving
STUDENTS: Plan your own themed party! – Small groups can choose their own theme – Budget (maximum money allowance) – Provide grade appropriate parameters
• Venue (no cost to reservations) • Number of guests (affects the math calculations) • Activity at party (basic to many parts organize) • Refreshments (one item to multiple items) • Decorations • Add complexity of choice (see McRel rubric) by providing a price list that
includes “name brand” pizza or “low-cost” pizza; themed paper plates at a higher cost or generic paper plates for less money, etc.
• Decide how the party planning will be reported out (Come to Our Party poster with a journal of reflections about their thinking along the process)
– Teacher can model • Brainstorming • Considering all possibilities and outcomes • Making complex choices • Communicating with group members
– Assessment • Create rubric for process and content

As a result of today’s experience, I plan to…
