ABSTRACT

Sharing the classroom routines and practicing decision making with educators has helped us develop the framework. In addition to supporting school communities, one of teacher’s major goals is to better understand how the classroom routines and decision-making framework actually impact student learning and teaching practices. When collaborating with this school, one focus area related to the challenges of engaging every student during All Learners Learning Every Day group learning routines. The teachers were working on how to provide students instruction tailored to their specific needs in a sustainable manner. Teachers are responsible for structuring clear, accessible, rigorous, and relevant learning activities. Teachers use Inclusive Directions reminding students of the Flag Time rules each day. Flag Time was an excellent means to improve student motivation. The course provides a professional development experience that models differentiated instruction in practical ways for immediate classroom use to ensure that all learners are learning every day.
