In this episode, PattI dives into the “efficiency mindset” — a powerful approach to simplify split-grade teaching. Instead of planning two separate lessons, learn how to teach one lesson with differentiated outputs that meet both grades’ expectations.

Key Takeaways:

• The mindset shift: one lesson, different outputs
• How to find overlapping skills in your curriculum
• Examples across math, language, science, and social studies
• Why this approach saves time and strengthens learning
• How unified lessons build a stronger classroom community
  
  

Tuck these in your teacher pocket:
Compare curriculum expectations for both grades, highlight shared skills (verbs like analyze, describe, explain), and design one shared teaching point with two scaled outputs.
