Why Opportunity to Learn is Important for Equity

“The opportunity to learn (or not) is a function of the systems we create in our classrooms and schools.

Decades of research have demonstrated that the opportunity to learn is the major variable in student

success. Few would disagree with the statement that a child’s last name, skin color, or family income

should never determine his or her future. But the systems and operational structures in schools and

classrooms can do just that. When some students have access to challenging curriculum while others do

not, inequity finds a breeding ground. P 72

PLAN WITH LANGUAGE IN MIND1. What do students need to know and be able to do?2. What language will they need to fully participate in the

learning?3. Where might the learners struggle? What supports need

to be created?4. How can you quickly assess the learning and provide

just in time support?5. How will you know your students have mastered the

material?
