Student Engagement Philosophy


Kirk's Student Engagement Plan
1. Connect the Real World to Learning: Provide students with relevant project-based models to help them understand the information.
2. Promote Peer-to-peer Interactions: Students are growing learners who thrive through interaction with others
3. Enhance Learning with Technology: Students learn by doing. Technology can help to engage children and fosters understanding.
4. Utilize Physical Movement: When a student is active they learn through physical or dramatic interactions.
5. Provide Visual Anchors: Visuals grab students’ attention and help to cement the concept in the mind.
6. Offer Student Choice: Offering students choices helps them to develop confidence in their strengths.
7. Incorporate Variety: Changes to routines and settings keep the learning experience fresh.
8. Understand your Students: The power of empathy and understanding allows for more relevant lessons.
