AVID is an elective class that gives students the opportunity to learn how to advance themselves via their own individual determination. During the AVID class students are required to attend tutorial sessions with a college student that helps them with confusing subject matter or prepare for the SAT/ACT.
My AVID students are eager to get tutorials started!
They love being independent thinkers that have a ton of peer support while they discover the answers to their point of confusion together as an AVID family.
My Project
My AVID students are getting geared up for tutorials. They are learning how to take focused notes and use Cornell notes. The classroom that we are currently in does not support an effective tutorial process. In order to have an effective tutoring session we need groups that are 6 to 1. This means we need 3 additional whiteboards to support the needs of our AVID students.
In addition, students need SAT and ACT practice to get them ready to take the test that will allow them to achieve their dreams.
Using the practice books will help them see that their long term goal is not that far away, if they just keep their eyes focused on the prize. Students are very active in an AVID classroom, so having clipboards will help them complete their task with ease.
