Learning Commitment

In the KLSD, we will strive to create learning experiences for all students that are intellectually engaging, relevant, and take place in an active learning environment.

GUIDING QUESTIONS

  • What do intellectually engaging experiences look like? How do we ensure that we are encouraging student curiosity, providing an individually appropriate level of challenge, moving towards increasing levels of independence, and offering effective feedback?

  • What are relevant learning experiences? How do we ensure that lessons have purpose beyond test results and make recognizable connections to the lives of our students?

  •  What is an active learning environment? How do we ensure that all students participate in collaborative, problem/project based activities that foster creativity, critical thinking, and increasingly sophisticated communication?
