What changes in actions, services, and This year, as schools designed a 21st century Theory of Action that focused on the work from Teacher Rounds and
expenditures will be made as a result of Instructional Rounds, every site designed a statement that focused on 21st Century academic communication. This included
reviewing past progress and/or changes to communication that was verbal, oral and tech enhanced (CDE, 2012). As sites designed their Theory of Action, a focus on
goals? communication was built to ensure that the essential elements of Integrated ELD was applied and observed through Teacher
Rounds (learning walks). As a result of the EL teacher trainings and Theory of Action learning walks, it remains highly critical
that ELD is a continuous topic for additional training and awareness for all teachers, not just ELD teachers. The district will
continue to take action to deepen the focus of Theory of Action and increased academic communication. Using a Theory of
Action will continue to direct ones behaviors in any situation (Argyris & Schon, 1974). Additionally, learning walks are
instrumental in detecting and eliminating errors (Argyris & Schon, 1978). A focus on these two design models with the ELD
and state standards remaining as an integral component of the Theory of Action will ensure student achievement is
accelerated with the integration of understanding the state ELA/ELD standards and framework through on‐going
professional development, planning, teaching and reflecting on instructional pedagogical practice.
A multitude of professional development were offered to teachers at elementary, middle and high school level. Teachers
provided feedback suggesting need for additional planning time and workshops in integrating technology and developing
unit designs that integrate research based strategies to improve English Learners and Low Income students. District will
continue to offer additional ELA/ELD standards and framework professional development next school year at all levels.
