Ideas, insights, and inspiration from the
Authentic Education Team

Most teachers know, tricky student behaviors spike at this time of year. It can help to consider simple adjustments for a calmer, more engaged spring classroom.
Supporting exploration and knowledge building rather than rushing to adopt a new curriculum is leading to better results for students.
One of the most powerful tools educators have is asking ourselves “How do I know?” We must interrogate evidence we come across even in our own classrooms.
A primary goal of UbD is to make meaning of learning by way of “big ideas” and to transfer learning and this can be applied to all subject areas.
A big breakthrough for me came in the form of UbD backwards design, and as I learned and adopted its framework, I reevaluated my intended goals for students as whole mathematicians.
