The School Improvement Plan (SIP) is the written plan of how we will reach our goals each year. The critical elements include:Organize:Stakeholders plan and assess needs based on data.Plan:Stakeholders set goals and objectives, identify strategies and measures of success.Implement:Implement activities and monitor progress.Sustain:Identify success of current plan, evaluate and adjust to sustain growth.
Florida Standards are a set of high-quality academic standards in mathematics and English language arts/literacy (ELA). These standards outline what a student should know and be able to do at the end of each grade. 6 Key Elements for Instruction:1. Knowledge and Use of Florida Standards2. Common and Collaborative Planning Time3. Interdisciplinary Content Integration4. Frequency of Project-Based Learning5. Student Collaboration6. Integrated Technology
The guiding principles of Professional Learning Communities (PLC) govern the behavior of our school professionals. The big ideas are:
Focus on Learning: All students can learn and we are responsible to ensure learning occurs.Focus on Collaborative Culture: Time is specifically reserved for collaboration on teaching and learning.Focus on Results:Effectiveness is measured by results, not intent.
The Florida’s Continuous Improvement Model (FCIM) is a systematic process for planning, teaching, assessing and re-evaluating results. It is the road map that directs our actions. Plan Do Check Act
Multi-Tiered System of Supports is a problem solving model that represents the integration of MTSS for academics and MTSS for behavior into a unified model of service. The basic problem-solving components include:1. Problem Identification2. Problem Analysis3. Intervention Design4. Response to Instruction/ Intervention
Lesson Study provides a structure for teachers to collaboratively plan lessons share, observe, record and analyze data to improve instruction. The key concepts are:1. Collaborative Planning2. Lesson Observation by Teachers3. Data Collection and Analysis Guided by Student Thinking, Learning, Engagement and Behavior4. Reflection, Refinement and Re-teaching as Necessary
Personalized Learning (PL) is a system that cultivates independence and self-governance of learning expectations through the expansion of choice and inclusion of voice in a flexible learning environment.PL Key Elements:1. Student-directed Learning2.Learner Profiles and Paths 3. Competency-based Learning4. Flexible Learning Environments5. Structures of Accountability, Continuous Improvement and Innovation

In The Secret Message, the parrot’s character is developed throughout the text. Write a paragraph providing an in-depth description of the parrot using the character’s thoughts, words, and actions. Use textual evidence/details to support your discussion.
Lesson Plan
Students re-read page 91-93 of text
On green post- it notes students will record textual evidence (parrot’s thoughts, words, actions) Frame of Reference
On a yellow post-it note students will select three adjectives from their adjectives word bank list that will help them provide an in-depth description of the parrot.
Students participate in a round robin sharing the adjectives they chose with the groups and placing it on their group describing map along with textual evidence
Students will utilize their describing maps along with the frame of reference, character’s thoughts, words, and actions) to write a paragraph providing an in-depth description of the parrot.
