Focus on Quality, not Quantity

Focus on Quality, not Quantity

"Need to know" versus "Nice to know"

  • Specify what students must know
  • Work with other teachers to determine "Need to knows"

Focus on Quality, Not Quantity

Homework should:

  • Enhance learning goals

  • Not be on new topics

  • Not be highly rigorous

It's a good idea to provide parents with homework guides.

Quote

"But in our attempt to give students more, are we actually giving them less?

Does our emphasis on quantity sacrifice quality in the process?"

-Robyn R. Jackson

Focus on Quality, Not Quantity

Avoid coverage mode and adopt curricular flexibility

  • Do not just focus on just checking off material covered
  • Look at curriculum to find the essentials
  • Divide learning experiences into smaller parts
  • Focus on standards

Master teachers should:

  • spend time planning
  • ask their students questions
  • focus on formative assessments

Teachers need to know that it is not the amount of work they give, but the quality of their teaching.

For this activity, the class will gather in a circle. I will toss a ball to a person and tell them to spell a word within three seconds and then throw the ball to another random person. Repeat the process for seven minutes.
