Millburn Instructional Mindset
The Millburn Instructional Mindset (MIM) represents a set of beliefs about teaching and learning in the Millburn Schools. The MIM articulates a shared vision for what our students need in order to be “future ready.” At its highest level, it presents the foundational elements of best practice in each important component, or gear, of school. A fully embraced and actualized MIM helps us facilitate a common language and understanding of instruction. It is a vehicle through which we, as a teaching community, share in a set of common expectations about what we value.��The Millburn Instructional Mindset pays homage to its framework predecessors: Instructional Theory into Practice (ITIP) and the former MIM or Millburn Instructional Model. The form it takes here as the Millburn Instructional Mindset highlights the idea that like teaching and learning itself, we must respect what we know works, what research suggests, and the schema we each bring to the classroom. The MIM identifies the levers that we as practitioners may pull in order to support our students in reaching their highest potential. ��The Millburn Instructional Mindset is not something new. Rather, it is something that has been borne out of the ITIP framework, the former MIM, teacher input and the advancement of thinking about the art and science of teaching. The MIM is living; it has evolved over time and will continue to do so as we refine our practice. �

Millburn Instructional Mindset
The MIM is... | The MIM is not... |
evolving constantly. | a mandated prescription that outlines how teachers must teach. |
a way of organizing thinking about the interconnectedness of teaching and learning. | a “cookie cutter” recipe for teaching. |
a guiding set of district beliefs to which we strive. | an initiative or “one more thing.” |
a means of establishing a common language. | an attempt to make teachers automatons. |
a tool for calibrating expectations about what teaching and learning looks like. | a coded way for saying, “What you’re doing now isn’t right or good enough.” |

S-Safety--Learning environment and student educational risk taking
O-Objective--Lesson aligned with standards and purpose is clear to students; students understand connection to unit and year. The EQs are written and referred to often
T-Teaching--Using a repertoire of well chosen instructional strategies, lesson is skillfully differentiated to reach many learning styles (Depth Of Knowledge)
E-Engagement--Students are attentive and involved. “Minds on Involvement” a student takes responsibility for their own learning
L-Learning--Use regular on-the-spot assessments to check for understanding and follow up when learning problems appear. Use formative assessments to ensure all students are learning “all the way”
