For my artifact, I incorporated literature circles into the reading of the novel, Lord
of the Flies. The first step in this process was to introduce the roles to the students and
to explain what was expected of them. Then, I split the students into their groups of four
using a random group generator (groups can be adjusted based on numbers, but four
worked best in my class). Once students knew what was expected of them, they talked
with their group members to determine who was doing what role for the first two
chapters. From there, we would read two chapters and I would allow the students time
to complete their role sheet (I also encouraged them to do this as they were reading
along, especially for quotes and vocab) and then they would meet with their group to
share their role with the other members. As the teacher, I would circulate between the
groups while they were sharing to listen to them and to provide any input/clarifications.
We would then repeat this process after each two chapters (there are 12 chapters in
total in the novel).

Thinking of students on different pathways to learning can help us better understand Personalized Learning.
Implementing learning pathways can help teachers to "adapt to each student’s learning progress, motivation and goals".
In the example given (and there are many more versions you could use!) Students are on 3 pathways. All pathways get small group instruction!
Pathway 1 - these are the students that are usually ahead. They skip over some things and get into the deeper work.
Pathway 2 - the "core" track for students working at level.
Pathway 3 - these students may have gaps or work more slowly. They don't get MORE work, but work at their level. They will likely get more small group instruction than the other paths.
Formative assessment is used on all pathways to improve instruction and learning.
*students can move between pathways if desired or necessary!

All students learn differently. It is important to understand the thought processes of all students. I wanted to use the class blog to demonstrate my students’ thinking and increase their engagement. I worked with all the different areas of learning styles presented at this PD day. I created different assignments and I had the students put their work on our class blog

So, let me ask you the question: How often do we let students “work the problem” in our schools and classrooms?
Do we give students a chance to figure it out on their own or in a small group? Do we challenge them to solve a challenge in a fixed amount of time? Do we let them struggle and fail to the point where they have to work the problem and find a solution?
With PL - Now every student was “working their own problem” and stumbling, struggling, and fighting to find a solution of how to learn, make, create, and launch an idea out into the world.
“The Martian” is a great example of working the problem. He has to use a multitude of 21st Century Skills, along with his team, and the people back on Earth to work together to survive and get him home.

Moon Journals are a project that I begin in September with the students. We use a variety of
activities in conjunction with our journals (poetry, short stories, Apollo Mission research, etc).
Students begin by creating a journal which they will take home with them and record their
observations on a nightly basis. The purpose of the journals is to increase/improve writing skills,
especially in the area of descriptive writing.

Introducing the motion and relative position unit with this engaging and
interactive lesson allows students to demonstrate their understanding of
relative position. Being a new teacher to the Sun West School Division, I
wanted to submit an artifact that included most of the 21st century
competencies focused on within the division thus far. Within this
introduction lesson, students will use their creativity and collaboration skills
to create a collage that demonstrates their understanding of relative
position. Since students are using technology to complete the learning
activity, they are also practicing their digital citizenship skills. The digital
citizenship elements that are addressed within this lesson are: digital access
(element of respect) and digital rights and responsibilities (element of
protect). Students are demonstrating an understanding that using
technology is a right, not a privilege and that they must work together on
the IPads to complete a task. Students will also demonstrate an
understanding that the IPads are being used as a learning tool, so they must
only use them as instructed.

This publication re-envisions professional practice, learning and development for educators in competency-based education.
As school districts transition to new, more powerful student-centered learning models, it’s critical that educators leading the transformative practice are equipped for their new roles. Moving Toward Mastery describes a teaching profession that is equity-oriented, learning-centered and lifelong; it recommends 15 strategies that can help school districts successfully make this paradigm shift.
Building off examples of effective teaching, professional development and practice across the nation, the new report explores how communities can work together to prompt and sustain complex systems change of moving both students and teachers from a one-size-fits-all approach to education to one in which all students and all teachers can succeed.
