Reading Reflection 2 - Instructions

The response for your second reading reflection will be of the 3-2-1 type.

Recall, the 6 Components for Comprehensive Reform posed by the CA Department of Education in the 1992 vision for a new California high school in the document Second to None:

1. Creating Curricular Paths to Success;
2. Developing Powerful Teaching and Learning;
3. Establishing a Comprehensive Accountability and Assessment System;
4. Providing Comprehensive Support for All Students;
5. Restructuring the School; and
6. Creating New Professional Roles.

As you respond to the prompts below, please connect each practice with one (or more) of these 6 Components.

3 – Of the variety of practices you learned about at BPHS, identify 3 that you think had the most impact on the school. Of course, please say a little bit why you think this may be true.

2 – Identify 2 practices at your CP 1 high school that match the vision in the Second to None document. Describe the affordances and constraints each of these practices seem to have had on the school environment.

1 – Identify 1 practice suggested in the Rethinking High School text that you predict will no longer be in practice at the school. Why?
