Synopsis

Foster effective teaching and deep learning using the seven elements of the Unstoppable Learning model: (1) planning, (2) launching, (3) consolidating, (4) assessing, (5) adapting, (6) managing, and (7) leading. Each chapter focuses on a different element of Unstoppable Learning as it pertains to designing powerful learning opportunities, and the impactful results these instructional strategies can produce in working toward academic standards. The book also provides templates for planning learning targets, assessments, lessons, and units that will help K-12 educators create and maintain positive, healthy, high-performing classrooms. Assess students' progress responsively and create differentiated classrooms that meet students' diverse needs.

How this handbook will help you implement Unstoppable Learning:

• Learn why it is imperative to make systems thinking a top priority.
• Study how to prioritize academic standards to address the time crunch that too much content and too little time creates.
• Gain ideas to thoughtfully launch a classroom lesson to hook students into what they will learn.
• Consider practical examples that illustrate how to implement the big ideas of Unstoppable Learning so that students can know and apply the academic standards.
