At Willowbrook Elementary, all students will take part in a daily 30 minute block time that is called WIN Time. WIN is an acronym that stands for “What I Need,” and this time is built into our master schedule. It is a time set aside for teachers and staff to deliver specific instruction targeting the individual needs of each student. We have two WIN time blocks, one for literacy and one for math.

Using our grade-level assessment performance data, all students are placed in an area of instruction during WIN time that fits exactly “What he/she Needs.” These groupings are fluid, and staff will collaborate to make adjustments on placements of their students each month.

Throughout the day all students will receive 90 minutes of daily instruction in math and 120 minutes in literacy. WIN Time is an additional 30 minutes of instruction in math and an additional 30 minutes of instruction in literacy that takes place each day. All staff are assigned a WIN Time group. All students in each grade level will go to WIN time sessions to receive direct, skill-based instruction based on their individual needs.

At Willowbrook Elementary we are very proud of the opportunities that WIN Time offers every student in the building. This is without question dynamic support for our students’ learning at the highest level. If you have specific questions regarding your child’s placement during WIN time, please contact your child’s teacher.
