ISY Action Plan

Goal 1: All students will be able to apply their knowledge and skills to adapt and contribute to an uncertain or unknown future:

• Review and confirm purpose, skills and knowledge (continuum) for each subject.

• Develop ISY Writing Cycle and implement common writing rubrics.

• Collect and collate ISY Writing exemplars for each genre (Grades 1-10).

• Develop ISY Research Cycle / Checklist (based on ISTE Knowledge Constructor standards and inclusive of AI).

Goal 2: All students will develop the self-efficacy and agency necessary to drive their own learning, control their own lives and positively influence the lives of others:

• Confirm definitions and develop measurement criteria for each ISY Learner Attribute.

• Focus on executive functioning (e.g. working memory and study skills)

• Implement ISY Early Learning Guidelines.

• Identify and explicitly teach subject command terms in all grade levels.

• Deepen understanding of ISY Interdisciplinary Concepts for use in all subjects and grade levels. Next step: Disciplinary Concepts.

• Focus on student assessment literacy.

• Focus on student health and wellness through implementation of Responsive Classroom principles and mindfulness.

Goal 3: The ISY teaching faculty will feel collectively capable and connected in meeting the needs of ISY students:

• Document planning using Curriculum Maps, Scope and Sequences, and Shared Drives.

• Implement Continuous Curriculum Review (CCR).

• Collaboratively identify professional growth needs for 2023-2024 (as part of CCR).

• Implement Professional Growth Plan (PGP).

• Professional growth focus on ISY Learner Attributes, executive function (e.g. working memory and study skills), assessment literacy, collaborative practices, and health and wellness.
