NEW! W I R E for Agency: Four Simple Moves That Transfer Learning
by Jenn Hayhurst and Jill DeRosa
When teachers cultivate children’s agency, students achieve. It’s that simple. In W I R E for Agency, two dynamic educators name four simple moves that lead to self-efficacy in students and to responsive teaching. Educators learn to:
- Use a framework of Watch, Intend, Reflect, and Engage as a daily tool in workshop or any literacy program
- Address all aspects of agency with concrete actions, including cultural responsiveness, self-regulation, engagement, and growth mindset
- Envision curricula and environments for student-centered learning
- Design collaborative learning experiences that give students practice with goal setting, taking action, and reflecting on progress
