The Highly Engaged Classroom Every teacher can create a classroom environment where
engagement is the norm, not the exception. The book shares how to generate high levels of attention and engagement as a result of careful planning and execution of specific strategies.
How do I feel? Am I interested? Is this important? Can I do this?
Specific strategies you can use: ◦ Tools to increase students' interest in the learning
process.◦ Focused instruction in vocabulary to boost academic
performance. ◦ Connect with students on the emotional level.

Considerations for TodayWhat “engagement” materials and resources (some
that have already been created) can you share with the other affiliates and schools across the state?
How will you share them with them? (wikispace, web page, repository, moodle?)
What missing materials do you need to create and share? (do you need to create videos on something new? Handouts for a specific tool?)
What other statewide projects or materials creation would you you like to see happen? What other things would you like to create with help from another group?
Considerations for TodayGuidelines that will help create an effective
working group (if we do some product development)
1. Treat each other with dignity and respect2. Listen first to understand – honor air space!3. Be creative and have fun!4. Honor time commitments5. Be open to change6. Do your part- as a learner AND a sharer 7. Communicate! Communicate! Communicate!
