Once during each six-week unit, teachers spend thirty minutes observing the two other classrooms in their cluster. Students set and assess unit goals. Students are guided by their teachers to set reasonable goals at the beginning of each six-week unit. At the end of each unit, students assess whether they achieved their goals. Students refer to the Passport to guide their movement to the various learning stations in each classroom.
Students have frequent and equitable access to computers.
All students work at the Computer Station in each of the subject-area classrooms at least three times per week. Students exercise control over materials and equipment. Students have access to and control over all materials and equipment at designated learning stations. They use equipment carefully and store materials properly. Students work as partners in cooperative teams.
