  16. What does justice mean to you?

  17. When you were a victim… A time when you were wronged, intentionally or unintentionally. • How did you feel? • What questions did you want to ask the offender? • What else did you want to say to him/her? • Who or what could make things right for you? • What would justice have looked like for you?

  18. When you were an offender… A time when you did something wrong--something you’re not proud of, and for which you got caught. • How did you feel? • What would you have liked to say to the victim? • Who or what would have made things right? • What would justice have looked like for you and for the victim?

  25. Restorative Questions to Help Those Harmed By Another’s Action • What did you think when you realized what had happened? • What impact has this incident had on you and others? • What has been the hardest thing for you? • What do you think needs to happen to make things right?

  26. Action Research Tools for Do No Harm • Discipline audit • Student and teacher surveys of problematic behavior

  27. Choice Words

  28. Principles of the Choice Words Pillar The language we use can positively or negatively affect the learning of students. It’s up to us to choose our words wisely. We foster a growth mindset daily to unlock human potential. We are builders of identity and agency. We are eliminating sarcasm as a means of providing feedback or trying to be funny. We provide extensive opportunities for students each day to experience the power of their words to shape their learning and the learning of others. We listen.

  29. Service Cycles for Choice Words • De-escalating behavior • Active listening • Giving compliments • TESA protocols • “Do the next right thing”

  30. Mindset

  31. Service Cycle Up Close: Do the Next Right Thing Listen to the description of the problem or task. Ask clarifying questions to assist the person in differentiating between the central problem or task and issues that are distracting them from beginning. Restate the problem or task as you understand it. Ask them to what the next right thing to do would be. Write down their ideas for them. If they are stuck, offer some ideas for how to begin.

  32. Action Research Tools for Choice Words • Indicators of success for Productive Group Work • Video self-analysis tool • TESA analysis of student interactions

  33. It’s Never Too Late to Learn

  34. Service Cycles for Never Too Late to Learn High quality instruction Academic recovery Grading and homework policies Grit letters Recognition letters

  38. “Bring a pencil to class is not in the math standards.”

  39. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Grades should provide the basis for differentiating students.” Guskey, 2011

  40. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Grades should provide the basis for differentiating students.” Is my purpose to select talent, or to develop it?

  41. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Grade distributions should represent a bell-shaped curve.” Guskey, 2011

  42. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Grade distributions should represent a bell-shaped curve.” Random distribution only works when nothing intervenes.

  43. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Grades should be based on students’ standing among classmates.” Guskey, 2011

  44. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Grades should be based on students’ standing among classmates.” Standing tells us nothing about learning.

  45. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Poor grades prompt students to try harder.” Guskey, 2011

  46. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “Poor grades prompt students to try harder.” Reinforces fixed belief of intelligence instead of a malleable view. Guskey, 2011

  47. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “We’ve always done it this way.” Guskey, 2011

  48. Five Obstacles for Grading Reform “We’ve always done it this way.” Shouldn’t we be focused on continuous improvement of ourselves?
