in a PLC

critical step in the PLC journey is celebrating. Celebration is more than just having fun; it is a means of communicating what is important. When celebrations continually remind people of the purpose and priorities of their organizations, members are more likely to embrace the purpose and work toward agreed-on priorities. Regular public recognition of specific collaborative efforts, accomplished tasks, achieved goals, team learning, continuous improvement, and support for student learning reminds staff of the collective commitment to create a PLC. The word recognize comes from the Latin “to know again.” Recognition provides opportunities to say, “Let us all be reminded and let us all know again what is important, what we value, and what we are committed to do. Now let’s all pay tribute to someone in the organization who is living that commitment.” Most schools and districts, however, will face a significant challenge as they attempt to integrate meaningful celebration into their cultures. The excessively egalitarian culture of schools makes it difficult to publicly recognize either individuals or teams. In most schools and districts, generic praise (“You are the best darn faculty in the state!”) or private praise (“I want to send you a personal note

of commendation”) are acceptable—public recognition is not. Generic and private praise are ineffective in communicating priorities because neither conveys to the members at large what specific actions and commitments are valued, and therefore, neither is effective in shaping behavior or beliefs. As Peter Drucker (1992) advises, “Changing habits and behavior requires changing recognition and rewards . . . [because] people in organizations tend to act in response to being recognized and rewarded” (p. 195). Tom Peters (1987) puts it this way: “Well-constructed recognition settings provide the single most important opportunity to parade and reinforce the specific kinds of new behaviors one

When celebrations continually remind people of the purpose and priorities of their organizations, members are more likely to embrace the purpose and work toward agreed-on priorities.

hopes others will emulate” (p. 307). We offer the following four suggestions to those who face the challenge of incorporating celebration into the culture of their school or district. Discover the four suggestions and read the complete article at SolutionTree.com/ContinueYourJourney

& QA

Robert Eaker, author

What is the focus of A Summing Up? As I approached the latter part of my career, I began reflecting on the phases of my professional life and all that I have had the privilege to learn. In this resource, I sum up my key takeaways and insights. My hope is that educators who read this book will come away with practical ideas for how to approach increasing student achievement and creating effective schools.

What moved you to write this memoir? I’m in the later stages of my career, and I think there is a natural tendency for people to reflect on their professional and personal lives as they get older. Also, many educators think that my career— along with Richard DuFour’s career—started when we created the PLC at Work® framework. But when we wrote Professional Learning Communities at Work: Best Practices for Enhancing Student Achievement, we had already been working together for 15 years. Personal relationships and friendships like this one have driven my

professional career, added quality to my life, and impacted my thinking over the years. I wanted to share some of these personal stories as well as share the back story of what I have learned about effective teaching and schooling. A Summing Up ties all of these details together into one resource.

What do you hope educators will take from your story? I hope that by reading about my career, readers feel inspired to reflect on their own journey and to improve as educators. There are many strategies and ideas throughout the resource, but the single greatest takeaway that I have learned in the last 20 years is this: the engine that drives the PLC at Work process and determines a school’s success—or lack thereof—is leadership. Strategies and processes can only ever be as good as the leaders implementing them.

“

The engine that drives the PLC at Work process and determines a school’s success—or lack thereof—is leadership.”

Success Story

Woodlawn Middle School LONG GROVE, ILLINOIS

DEMOGRAPHICS

› 648 Students › 8% Special education › 3.4% English language learners › 55.5% Caucasian › 25.6% Asian › 13% Hispanic › 4.1% Multiracial › 2.3% African American Woodlawn Middle School, part of Kildeer Countryside School District 96, is located in Long Grove, Illinois, a community of approximately 8,000 residents.

CHALLENGE Woodlawn Middle School’s PLC journey began more than 15 years ago, when it sought to develop common formative and benchmark assessments in order to increase student learning. At that point, standardized tests were the only primary sources driving instruction or increasing student achievement at the school. Principal Greg Grana, who has served Woodlawn for more than a decade, knew a professional learning community could simultaneously prepare students to reach local testing benchmarks and foster a more collaborative staff, even if some teachers weren’t immediately on board with the PLC framework. “The biggest challenges we faced were getting past the ‘why,’” Grana said. “’Why do we have to do this?’ It took a while, but you hit a certain point, and the questions go from ‘why’ to ‘how.’ And that’s huge. That’s a monumental shift in thinking. When you start hearing talk like that among your staff, that’s how you know you’re in good shape.”

IMPLEMENTATION Kildeer Countryside School District 96 started the PLC journey for Woodlawn, as the entire district adapted the framework at once. Woodlawn set off by evaluating its student achievement data and focusing on the best practices needed to improve student performance. Grana said the teachers collectively made a commitment to own responsibility for student successes and to hold the same rigorous expectations for every child in the school system. 2018 WINNER

IMPLEMENTATION CONTINUED As the PLC began to develop, practice quickly moved into action. Woodlawn’s staff shifted into a growth mindset, as knowledge shared among its professionals allowed the PLC’s principles to drive the school’s daily functioning. District content teams worked to develop a common set of targets for

each grade and subject. Teams also met regularly to review data to design effective differentiated instruction. In short, focusing on the four critical questions of a PLC ensured a guaranteed and viable curriculum for all of Woodlawn’s students.

RESULTS In addition to winning the coveted DuFour Award, Woodlawn was also twice named a United States Department of Education “Blue Ribbon School” in recognition for its students’ strong achievement after embracing the PLC framework.

all parties to monitor a learner’s classroom progress. Also, students are able to seek help from Woodlawn’s most skilled professionals during an established “flex” period, ensuring that learners with the greatest areas of need can receive individualized teaching or coaching.

Grana said Woodlawn has enjoyed “incredibly high” standardized test scores and that the interdependence between content and grade team members has grown exponentially.

“We have been a fully immersed professional learning community,” Grana said. “That means everything that we do, we do under the PLC umbrella. Through the years as a professional learning community, what it has done is that it’s focused on the path we’ve taken—we always refer back to what we do and why we do it.”

Students and families are also provided feedback through a standards-based reporting system, allowing

EXPERT

& QA

Robert D. Barr, author

What inspires or drives your work? Our work is driven by our passion to help children impacted by poverty and trauma to learn in school and find pathways out of poverty. The statistics of poverty are overwhelming, but schools across the country are proving demographics not to equal destiny. Our work has been inspired by school personnel who are changing the life trajectories of children living in poverty and helping them find a pathway to a better life. It is these educators, on the front lines of poverty, who have emerged as poverty’s “first responders.”

What challenges will The Resilient School help educators tackle? The Resilient School helps educators tackle the monstrous, complex challenges of poverty by addressing the academic needs of students, social-emotional needs of students, human needs of families, and professional/ relational needs of staff. The Resilient School provides direct, effective responses to common byproducts of poverty seen in students, as well as the current crisis of teacher attrition in high-poverty communities and the crippling effects of secondary traumatic stress that can undermine even the strongest staff. The Resilient School provides a systemic template for fostering student, staff, and community resilience.

Emily L. Gibson, author

What makes this book unique for school improvement work? The Resilient School provides a unique, systemic approach to school improvement by focusing on resilience of students, families, and staff. We have aligned the existing research on high-poverty/high-performing schools with three additional areas of research essential for reaching and teaching all students: research on trauma and childhood adversity, school/community outreach, and research on the effects of poverty on teachers and staff who work in the charged environments of high-poverty/high-trauma schools. This book, for the first time, provides a blueprint of what it takes to build a resilient school.

How does this book further your work in building a culture of hope? Writing The Resilient School furthered our concept of a culture of hope, anchoring it within the context of school/ community resilience. Our vision of the culture of hope is much broader than we originally conceptualized, in that our work with schools now focuses as much on building hope in the community surrounding the school as it does with building hope inside the school. Additionally, The Resilient School introduces a fifth Seed of Hope—Self-Regulation—as another foundational social-emotional asset necessary for life success, especially for children living in poverty.

RTI at Work™ Overview This on-site workshop provides a comprehensive overview of the RTI at Work process. You and your team will be introduced to the essential elements needed to create a highly effective, multitiered system of support (MTSS) to ensure all students learn at high levels. This includes how to: • Build effective teams to know when and how to respond to students

Simplifying Response to Intervention Learning a successful RTI model begins by asking the right questions to create a fundamentally effective learning environment for every student. RTI is not a series of implementation steps, but rather a way of thinking, including how to: • Create a focused RTI model that works

• Prioritize essential learning outcomes for optimal focus on what students should learn

• Shift to a culture of collective responsibility and build team structures for collaboration

• Target assessments to help identify what they have learned or not

• Develop a system of convergent assessment to identify students for intervention, determine their unique needs, monitor their progress, and adjust learning opportunities based on their progress

• Systematically respond when students need remediation and enrichment

Success Story

Clinton High School CLINTON, IOWA CHALLENGE DEMOGRAPHICS

When Clinton High School administrators decided to attend a Solution Tree conference, they hoped to learn strategies that would help them fight several discouraging trends. The graduation rate was declining as failures were increasing. State assessment results and attendance were both down. Student behavior issues were increasing. Staff efficacy and overall school morale were low and continuing to diminish.

› 1,100 Students › 55% Free and reduced lunch › 1% Limited English proficient › 18% Special education › 12.3% African American › 5.4% Hispanic › 1.4% Asian/Pacific Islander › <1% Other

IMPLEMENTATION After returning from the conference, the CHS leadership team was determined to focus on the right things that would enable a total and complete school system change. Using the books Pyramid Response to Intervention and Simplifying Response to Intervention as guides, CHS staff realigned and implemented a schoolwide intervention process. Staff are now required to update grades each week, and the data team reviews the success of each intervention.

RESULTS The trends at CHS now tell a very different story. By every indicator, CHS has been successful in improving student performance. The total number of course failures in grades 9–12 decreased by 79%. Results also

show that students feel supported in their efforts to be successful in the classroom and, in response, are showing up to learn. In just one year student attendance increased by 3%

Toby J. Karten, author

What inspires or drives your work? My inspiration stems from administrators and educators who allow me to match their staff and student realities with responsive interventions. As an RTI and inclusion consultant and coach, I assist both general and special education staff to collaboratively inspire each student to succeed. My passion is to spread the word and help educators and students soar to new heights.

What challenges will Developing Effective Learners help educators overcome? Educators today face many challenges that include instructing students with diverse needs and meeting high benchmarks for student achievement, all while keeping students engaged and learning at different levels within one classroom. Developing Effective Learners helps educators focus on how RTI’s multitiered approach for literacy, mathematics, and social, emotional, and behavioral skills can help all students achieve mastery. The book highlights organization, valid instruction, and the steps administrators, teachers, and support staff can take to lead learners from their baseline skills to high achievement through the responsive tiers.

What will educators find most valuable in Navigating the Core Curriculum? Navigating the Core Curriculum offers interventions, instructional coaching strategies, and curriculum lessons to help learners gain core knowledge with meaning attached to classroom practice and life applications. The goal of this book is to replace anxieties and apprehensions with RTI planning, knowledge, step-by-step procedures, resources, and collaboration. Despite the obstacles educators may encounter in their classroom journeys, there are effective ways to navigate the curriculum that do not frustrate educators or their students.

What professional development do you offer to support these books? My professional development offerings include one-day, two-day, and ongoing sessions that are designed to help teachers create supportive and inclusive classroom lessons that proactively address diverse learning needs. This includes step-by-step ways to apply evidence-based practices that match the characteristics of students across the disciplines and grade levels from preK–12 with multitiered responsive interventions. Administrators, teachers, and support staff are offered customized and interactive professional development sessions that value their school, classroom, individual learners, and collaborative voices.

Success Story

Moriarty Elementary School MORIARTY, NEW MEXICO CHALLENGE Using the adopted curriculum assessment materials only, student achievement at Moriarty was stagnant. Former Principal Natalie Romero explained, “Not only were teachers using only curriculum assessment materials, they were using curriculum materials to teach. This process did not aid in student achievement, as seen in the last five years of school data.” Another challenge was the absence of student-centered rubrics and grading. Students had no involvement in planning their learning and no opportunities for reflection.

IMPLEMENTATION With the help of assessment expert Cassandra Erkens, teams began unpacking assessments to ensure they were asking meaningful questions of students. Through the backward planning process, teams used the assessments they created as common summative assessments to determine proficiency based on the standards, not the curriculum. Teachers also began placing the students in charge of their learning, developing student-friendly rubrics with aligned learning targets. Finally, teachers began scoring assessments together in order to streamline common expectations.

DEMOGRAPHICS › 465 Students › 100% Free and reduced lunch › 8% Limited English proficient › 20% Special education › 0.017% African American › 53.1% Hispanic › 0.004% Asian/Pacific Islander › 1% Native American/Alaska Native › 5% Multiracial Moriarty Elementary School is located in a rural area 45 miles east of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

RESULTS Through their work on assessments with Cassandra, teams were able to pinpoint areas of need specific to each student by each standard. “The process we learned gave me the understanding of what a good assessment actually looks like and what it can measure,” says Romero. Students have also been given the opportunity to reflect on their achievement through data tracking and learning targets. Over the spring semester, learning increased drastically based on short cycle assessment results and classroom summative assessments.

& QA

LeAnn Nickelsen, author

What are the Instructional Cha-Chas? Quite simply, the Cha-Chas are four steps to effective instructional practices. These steps lead to a high-impact flow of daily planning and instruction. We gathered the results of research in the cognitive and behavioral sciences, as well as evidence-based best practices, and combined them into the four easy-to-remember steps: Chunk it, we teach a bit. Chew it, they think about it. Check it, to see if they know. Change it, to watch them grow!

Why is this book important to student success? Each step of the Instructional Cha-Chas is easily differentiated to address student needs. When the steps are used consistently, the process can double the speed of student learning. In addition, the strategies offered with each step are engaging, encourage high levels of thinking, and promote student self-regulation and collaboration. The Instructional Cha-Chas are really not a choice—every student deserves them daily.

Teaching With the Instructional Cha-Chas

Melissa Dickson, author

How will it help educators in their classrooms? The Instructional Cha-Chas support new teachers just learning to develop lessons, as well as veteran teachers in search of more tools for their teacher toolkit. Part one sets up the classroom dance floor by introducing the formative assessment process and showing how to design daily learning targets with a main formative assessment. Part two helps teachers choreograph their classroom instructional dance: instructing, learning, evaluating, and differentiating.

How is this book unique in the world of instruction and assessment? Many assessment books offer the theory and research, but our book gives classroom teachers the most important research and the most practical, high-impact strategies. With the Instructional Cha-Chas, teachers will see students who were once one year behind get caught up. It’s teacher tested and approved, and schools that embrace it are moving every single kid forward faster—the results are amazing!

Four Steps to Make Learning Stick By LeAnn Nickelsen and Melissa Dickson Foreword by Rick Wormeli

Merging educational neuroscience research with formative assessment and differentiated instruction, the authors developed a four-step cycle of instruction—(1) chunk, (2) chew, (3) check, and (4) change—that has the power to double the speed of student learning. Compatible with any subject area, the book’s brain-friendly teaching strategies and plentiful tools are designed to help transform students into active learners and independent thinkers.

• Combine brain science with a formative assessment process and differentiated instruction to maximize student learning. • Examine effective teaching strategies and differentiation practices so you can bump it up or break it down according to student needs. • Consider the four-step instructional cycle and understand the components of chunk, chew, check, and change. 01SMCA–BKF822 $36.95 USD | $48.50 CAD ISBN 978-1-945349-95-9 240 pages

Success Story

Newhall School District VALENCIA, CALIFORNIA

CHALLENGE When superintendent Jeff Pelzel first arrived at the Newhall School District, Common Core State Standards for literacy and math instruction were also being rolled out across California. Pelzel, then an assistant superintendent and content director for Newhall, knew that finding the right instruction strategy for its ten elementary schools—five of which were classified as Title I—would be critical to student success.

IMPLEMENTATION Sarah Schuhl, a certified Mathematics at Work™ associate, began working with Newhall to implement the ten HighLeverage Team Actions detailed in the Beyond the Common Core: Handbooks for Mathematics in a PLC at Work® series. In year two, Schuhl met with teachers to unwrap standards for upcoming mathematics curriculum units. In year three, teachers worked with Schuhl to create common assessments and response to intervention (RTI) practices. She also met with new teachers to share strategies for mathematics instruction and assessment. In year four, Schuhl provided mathematics training to special education teachers and worked with leadership teams to refine RTI practices and implement strong core instruction.

DEMOGRAPHICS

› 6,537 Students › 12.02% Special education › 23.5% English language learners › 48.4% Hispanic › 2.3% African American › 30.5% Caucasian › 5.8% Multiracial › 9.5% Asian › 0.1% Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander › 0.4% Native American

Newhall School District is a group of ten elementary schools located in Valencia, California, a neighborhood of approximately 61,000 residents in Santa Clarita, California.

RESULTS According to the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress, Newhall’s students collectively improved their proficiency in mathematics from 54 percent to 71.85 percent over three years. English proficiency also improved from 67 percent to 71.13 percent in that span. As for Newhall’s economically disadvantaged students, 48.1 percent are now meeting or exceeding state math standards, compared to the Los Angeles County rate of 28.6 percent. Newhall’s English learner students are also outperforming the county 30.7 percent to 12 percent.

IMPLEMENTATION District leaders made the decision to bring Dr. Juli K. Dixon to HLPUSD to lead a one-day training for principals and teachers. Afterward, teachers were asked if they would be interested in summer professional development—the answer was an overwhelming yes. HLPUSD began partnering with Solution Tree’s DNA Mathematics experts to drive excellence in mathematics instruction. Leadership scheduled a variety of training opportunities over several years to ensure teachers at all grade levels increased their content knowledge and depth of understanding. Mathematics became a constant part of the district’s academic conversation and focus, with staff developing a sincere commitment to the mindset that all students have the ability to achieve in mathematics.

“The strength of the professional development is the real-life examples they bring to the table.” —Judy Fancher, assistant superintendent

RESULTS HLPUSD’s long-term goal is for all students to complete four years of high school college-preparatory mathematics. Since working with DNA Mathematics, the district has seen consistent growth from year to year and continues to build capacity at the site and district levels. “We face the moral imperative to provide all students an opportunity to learn and apply mathematics,” said Dr. Fancher. “As the global economy evolves, students, more than ever, require sophisticated math skills to increase opportunities for postsecondary education and careers.”

How do your books impact student success across content areas in secondary schools?

What is one specific literacy strategy you offer that transcends all subject areas?

Our books tackle the key elements and practices for supporting learning: team collaboration within a PLC, student-centered instruction, discipline-specific literacy strategies to foster student growth, and assessment methods and techniques that will inform instruction and drive reflection. Our books take on the role of a reflective thought partner, working between and across teams to grow students’ disciplinary literacy skills—supporting their ability to read, write, think, and speak within and beyond our classrooms.

In our books we emphasize the need for students to activate background knowledge. The “Quick Write” strategy is an effective bell-ringer activity that allows students to express what they already know about a topic before taking on new information. The teacher displays a number of sentence stems, such as: “One thing I know about…” or “One thing that has confused me about…” and students have a short time to write a response. Students may have the opportunity to share their responses with peers or the class. This lays a foundation for new learning to occur.

How does the content help educators in their classrooms?

How does this work support professional learning communities?

Our books are designed for educators to use in many different capacities. Each disciplinary book has multiple entry points depending on the needs of the content area teacher or school leader. In addition, each book focuses on specific disciplinary literacy strategies for prereading, during reading, postreading, writing, and assessment. The strategies also have adaptations for teachers to use with individual students.

By sharing pieces of our story and providing best practices, our books work within this series to help PLCs plan literacy activities that support content area learning while addressing the four critical questions of the PLC at Work® process. The books help teams identify what students need to learn and assess whether or not learners are meeting expectations with content and literacy skills. From there, the resources help PLC teams provide responsive adaptations based on whether or not students are proficient. With thoughtful thinking breaks and questions for PLC teams, we help educators address and think through the critical lenses required for a successful PLC.

Peg Grafwallner, author

Why do you feel the FRAME model is important?

Describe what you mean in the book by creating an academic family.

FRAME supports teachers with a structured, realistic model on how to begin their lessons. It’s not unusual for passionate teachers to want to dive into the content right away. They want to get students excited about politics, short stories, math, visual arts, and so on. But even the most exciting content will fall flat if the first 10 minutes of class isn’t structured toward learning. Students want to understand what they are expected to know and be able to do. FRAME helps with this.

I coined that phrase when I began teaching nearly 27 years ago. For many of our students, we are their family. Many look to us for the basics—food, clothing, and safety. Many more look to us for guidance, empathy, and compassion. So while my students might not have been members of my biological family, they were without a doubt members of my academic family.

Give one example of how this book will help educators in their daily practice. This book offers structure and gives teachers explicit examples on how to use that structure. For example, the book includes three FRAME-based lesson plans. These lesson plans were written by an elementary school teacher, a middle school teacher, and a high school teacher utilizing the FRAME components. In addition, the book offers a blank lesson plan where teachers can practice applying the FRAME model to their classrooms.

Ready to Learn

What unique perspective does Ready to Learn offer to support educators in their craft? In the book there are examples of an “Exemplary Classroom” where I outline what FRAME looks like in a typical classroom setting. In addition, at the end of every chapter there are questions that encourage discussion and further reflection. FRAME is meant for all grade levels, all content areas, and all student abilities. It offers teachers flexibility when needed and structure when necessary.

NEW

The FRAME Model for Optimizing Student Success By Peg Grafwallner Ready to Learn introduces the FRAME model, a results-oriented approach for creating meaningful and motivating learning experience across grade levels and content areas. Rely on the model’s five steps—(1) focus, (2) reach, (3) ask, (4) model, and (5) encourage—to help you launch engaging lessons, articulate clear expectations, and offer effective feedback.

Free reproducibles available at SolutionTree.com/FreeResources

• Explore how the FRAME model supports teachers in planning and delivering a meaningful learning experience to every student. • Discover strategies for engaging students within the first ten minutes of class and carrying this motivation throughout the lesson. • Understand how encouraging peer observations and feedback among teachers will improve instructional practice. 01SMCA–BKF922 $31.95 USD | $42.00 CAD ISBN 978-1-949539-31-8

EXPERT

& QA

Chris Weber, author

Why do education leaders need help in doing what works?

How will your book help leaders make common-sense changes?

New initiatives and new ideas are the norm in education. And we have never had greater access to research on what works best for students. We all need help identifying what works best and where we should focus our staff’s precious time and resources. Our teachers are incredible. We need assistance in guiding them in the implementation of the most effective practices.

Each chapter empowers leaders to guide change and reemphasize common-sense practices. Chapters provide easy-to-digest research on common-sense practices and offer examples of the implementation of these practices within a school district. Each chapter concludes with suggested specific next steps.

Give one example of a common-sense practice that is often overlooked. One of the common-sense and research-based practices with which my district is currently engaged is reprioritizing the standards that all students will master in a given grade level or course. This is not a new concept, but still the quantity of content within too many districts’ curriculum guides is compromising the quality of learning. Depth is being sacrificed for breadth. We are committed to teaching all standards but we do not teach them all as if they are equally important.

EXPERT

& QA

Beth Pandolpho, author

Why should administrators and teachers of secondary classrooms read I’m Listening?

What are some strategies from the book that teachers can use in their classrooms tomorrow?

I’m Listening offers strategies for teachers to develop strong relationships with students and create a classroom community in which students feel safe and valued. It provides specific standards-based ideas and instructional activities grounded in the philosophy of social-emotional learning (SEL) that teachers across the disciplines can use to promote literacy development.

The resource provides many cross-disciplinary strategies designed for immediate use across grade levels. For example, the book includes targeted questions educators can ask to help students deepen their comprehension, discover how stories reveal truth, and transfer these understandings to their own lives. In addition, there are prompts offered to help students identify archetypal patterns as well as methods for sparking reflection and discussion.

What makes this book unique? I’m Listening is both practical and uplifting. Stories and anecdotes from life, literature, and classrooms illuminate how the development of literacy skills is fostered when relationships and belonging are integrated into classroom culture and lesson design. Teachers and students lend their voices to this book, not only to inspire, but also to remind us of the powerful connection between relationships and learning.

I’m Listening

What inspires your work both as a teacher and an author? I am continually inspired by other people’s stories. I think that learning about others expands and transforms us, and it enables us to envision possibilities beyond our own experience. I am interested to learn how we can harness the power of social connectedness to impact learning and overall happiness in the lives of students as well as each other. To me, the path to real improvement in education is listening—to the research, our colleagues, our students, and ourselves.

What inspires or drives your work?

What makes this book unique?

As I travel across the country, the number of dual-language and bilingual teachers who share troublesome stories about the support systems in their schools is astounding. The gaps in effective cycles of observation, feedback, and aligned supports have led to an ever-growing number of teachers who feel disconnected and undervalued. This has inspired me to speak to the complexity of their work. Being a language learner and having been a bilingual parent, teacher, and administrator, I am driven to ensure processes are in place to support all teachers so that others like me can find their success.

There simply isn’t any other book like this. As more states implement dual-language and bilingual programs, it is critical that educators are prepared with all the internal support structures they would have for their monolingual programs. Coaching Teachers in Bilingual and Dual-Language Classrooms offers a responsive observation and feedback cycle that diminishes the challenges of observing in another language and helps coaches acquire the set of skills and perspectives necessary to effectively coach in these classrooms.

How will Coaching Teachers in Bilingual and Dual-Language Classrooms help educators? Many leaders and coaches find bilingual and dual-language classrooms and the educators who teach them difficult to support, but we’ve found that it doesn’t have to be such a challenge. This book acknowledges that coaching in these classrooms has to be a little different and gives educators the tools, framework, and strategies that ultimately remove the barriers that stand in the way of successful coaching.

What professional development do you offer to support this book? We offer professional development to teach coaches how to use each lens and tool. We also offer ongoing job-embedded coaching that’s customized to a school’s unique program model.

How does mindfulness impact student learning?

What challenges will this book help educators overcome?

Mindfulness is a tool of opportunity, especially in the context of schooling, since it is a critical part of alleviating stress and trauma. By calming the brain, students are better able to focus, while teachers are better able to become attuned to the needs of students. Mindfulness is also key to strengthening executive functioning—resulting in improved attention, memory, and cognition.

Teachers, as well as students, need ways to relieve stress and heal from trauma. Mindful School Communities includes evidence-based activities and practices to be used in small and large groups. Two minutes of mindfulness activities interspersed throughout the day can result in students who are primed for learning and teachers who are once again thrilled to be in the classroom.

How does your new book, Mindful School Communities, build on your first Solution Tree book, Mindfulness Practices?

What is one specific strategy you offer that educators can practice in their classrooms tomorrow?

Mindfulness Practices outlines the foundational practices of mindfulness and compassion that lead to greater well-being for students, teachers, and school communities. Mindful School Communities provides a road map for integrating the foundational practices throughout the day in order to develop the grit and resilience needed for school, work, home, and life success.

Mindful School Communities details how to incorporate 5 Cs—Consciousness, Compassion, Confidence, Courage, and Community—into classrooms. Consciousness begins by improving heart and brain coherence. With heart beaming exercises, students close their eyes, take a few deep breaths, put their hands over their hearts, and connect with someone they love or who needs love. Next, they imagine healing energy being sent from their own hearts to the other person and then back again. This exercise fosters a deep sense of peace, joy, and gratitude.

& QA

Don Parker, author

Why should educators read your book? Educators should read Building Bridges because it offers best practices on how administrators and teachers can build relationships with their students at-risk. The book is packed with research, evidence-based strategies, and personal stories on how educators can make meaningful connections with challenging students. In addition, it offers guidance on how to improve school climate, strengthen classroom management, implement a culturally responsive curriculum, and open lines of communication with students at-risk—all of which will help increase student achievement.

How does your approach to student discipline help educators achieve positive results?

One strategy for connecting with students is to open up to them. Many educators underestimate how much students can learn from their teachers’ personal stories of resilience. When educators use self-disclosure responsibly, students learn that the teacher has overcome challenges to be successful. This will help the students to believe that their situation can get better and that they can rely on their teacher for emotional support.

How do you define a relationshipbuilding mindset?

My approach to student discipline helps educators achieve positive results because it is rooted in the belief that when teachers and students develop a relationship they value, the student will work to improve. When students know that their teacher believes in them and fully supports them, they understand that they are being held accountable and become motivated to reach their potential.

Building Bridges

What is one strategy you share for connecting with troubled students?

A relationship-building mindset is having a relentless commitment to building relationships with students, no matter how challenging the task. Building trusting relationships with students at-risk is not easy, and that is why commitment is required. When it is accomplished, it will have a major positive impact that is well worth the investment!

& QA

Larry K. Brendtro, author

What new insights will educators find in the third edition of Reclaiming Youth at Risk? While masses of data are being churned out, most is far removed from front-line practice. Our book blends modern neuroscience and research on resilience with traditional wisdom from indigenous cultures that focus on meeting the needs of all children. These universal needs, called the Circle of Courage, are belonging, mastery, independence, and generosity. When these needs are met, children thrive; but if unmet, children show a host of problems.

How will this book help educators in their daily practice? Positive relationships are at the core of building resilience in children and youth. Too often this simple truth is drowned out in the pursuit of higher test scores and zero-tolerance discipline. Our book offers practical ideas and strategies to reclaim what we have forgotten or neglected. Students and staff are engaged in building a culture of respect where all can succeed.

Reclaiming Youth at Risk

Martin Brokenleg, author

Steve Van Bockern, author

Why is the reclaiming model so valuable in today’s schools and classrooms? The Circle of Courage provides a simple but not simplistic way to think about what really matters in our work with children and youth. This provides a map to teach and rear children so that they experience a sense of well-being. In our conflicted and chaotic world, what better gift could we give our children than to know they are loved, capable, responsible, and helpful?

What do you hope to see in the future of the reclaiming youth and strengthsbased movements? Our hope is that adults embrace their important role in guiding and nurturing children, even those most at risk. This entails recognizing that all persons—including ourselves— have unique strengths that can be used to build positive futures. Relationships built on trust, empathy, and positive expectations can help recapture the joy and satisfaction of a life well lived.

& QA

Lauren Porosoff, author

Jonathan Weinstein, author

What do you mean by two-for-one teaching?

What does values work look like in the classroom?

Our book isn’t a social-emotional learning (SEL) program or curriculum. It’s an approach to instructional design that embeds social-emotional learning into every stage of an academic unit (that’s the “two-for-one” part). The book contains 30 protocols, rooted in evidence-based psychological science and progressive pedagogy, that actively teach social-emotional and academic skills (that’s the “teaching” part). Unlike most social-emotional learning programs, our approach focuses on helping students discover and develop their own values, and connect their assignments and interactions to those values, so that school becomes a source of meaning and vitality in their lives.

The protocols in this book leverage practices that teachers already use. If you can lead a turn-and-talk, you can lead Collaborative Conversations. If your class can do KWL, they can do the Represent & Respond protocol. Some protocols might include new ideas for instruction, but all of them turn academic learning into a context for students to explore their own values, choose values-consistent behaviors, and assess the impacts of those choices.

Why should educators consider this approach in their everyday practice? For any given academic goal, teachers can choose from a wide variety of learning tasks that will help students achieve that outcome. Why not choose learning tasks that achieve the desired academic outcomes and also help students clarify and commit to the values they want to bring to their learning, their work, and their relationships?

Two-for-One Teaching

How will this book help educators in a practical way? Each of this book’s protocols includes a preparation checklist, a step-by-step description of what to do, ways to boost students’ commitment to their values, and ideas for how to use the protocol repeatedly, so it becomes a learning routine. These routines orient students to where they are in a unit, engage them in meaningful learning, and empower them to make their work meaningful for themselves.

Connecting Instruction to Student Values By Lauren Porosoff and Jonathan Weinstein Prepare students to live fulfilling lives by making their learning meaningful. In Two-for-One Teaching, authors Lauren Porosoff and Jonathan Weinstein outline how to seamlessly incorporate social-emotional learning into academic classrooms. Empower students to discover what matters to them using research-based strategies that foster agency, community, self-reflection, and vitality in the classroom.

• Develop an understanding of what values are, how they impact the way we live, and the need for students to choose and live their own values. • Understand how to develop a classroom culture of willingness and encourage student empowerment. • Help students approach academic work in ways that align with their values. 01SMCA–BKF923 $36.95 USD | $48.50 CAD ISBN 978-1-949539-33-2 248 pages
