Type of Inquiry: NOIIE
Focus Addressed: Teachers were noticing a common theme at school-based team meetings — social/emotional concerns. We were curious about supporting students that felt defeated with their learning and how we could relate those feelings with characters in literature. Teachers wanted to draw awareness to Successful Learner Traits through children’s literature, to support core competencies and create a school-wide culture and language around the Successful Learner Traits.
