‘Proficiency Days’ Are a Great Way to End the School Year

Instead of the end-of-year rush to turn in missing assignments, this district set up a meaningful way to ensure that high school students met standards.

When Tier 1 is the engine driving everything:
Achievement increases
Misbehaviors decline
Learning happen

Stop throwing money, programs, interventions & the kitchen sink at Tiers 2 & 3.

Tier 1 is where our work is & the problems get solved.
It requires intentional design.

This popped up in my memories. 10 years ago, my team and I saw this and knew it was what our students needed. We began on this journey and the difference it made in our PLC and in the lives of our students.

The Jigsaw strategy builds collaboration & accountability, but what if we added tech? Using Canvas Mastery Paths, we let students choose their research focus, create learning showcases in Book Creator, and teach their peers. More engagement. More ownership. More impact!

Canvas Mastery Paths let teachers automate differentiation while keeping student choice + collaboration at the center. Imagine a learning experience where students self-direct, collaborate, and move at their own pace! What’s your favorite tech tool for personalization? #EdTech

Math instruction should challenge and support every learner. This week’s Math PLO focused on scaffolding for GT, SPED, MLL, and ensuring rigor meets the depth of the standard using process standards & CRA. Let’s build accessible, high-rigor math classrooms! 🔥 #MathEd #UDL

I’m loving Brisk AI for feedback. I’ve have a lot of responses to do this week, so I’ll let Brisk use the rubric and edit as I see fit.

💡 Sunday Reset:
What’s ONE tech tool you’re planning to lean on this week?
I’ll go first: Canva for Education—because designing slides in seconds = more time for teaching.

If they didn’t learn it, did you teach it? Interesting thought. What’s your take?
