@brianlalor @ibpyp We are currently working on this as well and received similar feedback from WASC. Great ideas shared and I love the LP indicator visual.

AI cannot teach #creativity #openminded #empathy I created these single-point #formativeassessment #rubric to help students develop in these vital @ibpyp #learnerprofile attributes brianlalor.blogspot.com

A great article questioning the purpose of report cards. How much are your report cards representing student voice, respecting the child and informing parents about their child’s growth? #pypchat #rethinkingreports #timeforchange #pyp teachermagazine.com.au/articles/does-…

Last week I observed a fantastic teacher ask approximately 30 questions in response to student observations across 2mins of class. That’s something. Then this pops up on my feed: Talk Less So Students Learn More edutopia.org/article/talk-l…

@mrmackaypyp Lol 😆 true story.

My Ss and I have been exploring #poetry and we've had so many laughs doing it that I thought I'd start sharing some. Here's a #cinquain of mine: Wi-Fi Log in, let's go! This will be fun, can't wait! Loading...refresh...loading...refresh...loading...refresh Sadness

Grade 2 team inquired into their own learning about concept driven instruction. Teachers worked in groups to sequence the components in the structure of knowledge, built the structure, and unpacked the definitions of each. #conceptdrivenlearners #Structureofknowledge #GoISNS

Parents engaging in play to learn about play based learning and the role of a teacher in observing and docenting play. Huge success! Thank you @klmanc #playbasedlearning #GoISNS

Day 1 of Leading for effective teaching and learning #IB workshop is finished. Lots of engaged learners/teachers/leaders here at @ISNS_School. Talking through big ideas with colleagues always leaves me feeling like we're on the right track. #lifelonglearning #Leadership #ISNSPD

“Often the learning is invisible to parents and sometimes even teachers. We need to observe and listen to the child’s play to be able to extend the children and understand their theories.” Great reflection from staff @ISNS_School #symboliclearning #IBEN #playbasedlearning #eypyp

Empowering our parents with #playbasedlearning skills so they can experience the impact it makes in the lives of their children. #GoISNS

The passion and knowledge were evident in today's grade 5 debates about government. Well done! #going @ISNS_School @ibpyp @BlessyMonica #pyp

Play based learning in the EY with @klmanc Kate Mancarella. Great day of learning #GoISNS

From an @edutopia article: "Coaches can work with instructional leaders in a variety of areas because leaders’ roles are multifaceted. The key is for the leader and the coach to be specific and target areas that are appropriate." edutopia.org/article/value-…

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your understanding. See you next time! #pypchat 4 life!
