MIT Mintues - 4/25/12


Discussion focused on RC goal

Connect to agency
Use of TIII summer school developed curricula as an activity

We want students to become autonomous, self-directed learners

Having a rubric for parents would be helpful as we think about how to engage families around RC

Invite parents to professional development

Parent professional development

Giving language examples would be powerful
I noticed . . .
I saw you . . .
Put the scissors in the drawer now. You are doing something unsafe.

Video examples

Invite parents to morning meeting

Curriculum night sharing???
-       introduce RC
-       NAAPID – come
-       RC passport – look for the features of RC
-       Morning meeting during Kevin’s presentation

The social curriculum is as important as the academic curriculum

RC is different so we have to take parents into account in how we present it
