Power+Tools+Challenge

You are invited take part in the development of guidance for the entire network around incorporating our Power Tools into our Tier 2 tutoring sessions. We know that our Power Tools can engage, unite and focus our community building efforts, but the true “power” of our Power Tools does not end there. Power tools can be used to engage students in group discussions, share positive academic behaviors and promote critical thinking. The activity planning worksheet includes a “Spirit Break” as the close of each tutoring session because we know that “Spirit Breaks” connect people for a brief moment to give the group an inspirational charge ending a tutoring session in a positive way.
