Waukesha North HS student learning reflection responses

Part of our focus is to do a better job of asking our learners what they are experiencing every day in our classrooms. We have a focus on WICR strategies (Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration and Reading) so that our learner outcomes and their experiences happen through the use of WICR. Another strategy we focus on to help make thinking visible, is to have our learners verbally share what they have learned.

Do our learners know and recognize our adult focus? The plan is to ask them about every four weeks and then use their feedback to help us make positive classroom connections. They don't want to fill out surveys and not have their voice be acknowledged, just like adults.
How can we involve them in these discussions about their own learning?

Here is what 140 students say:
