Our three PLCs.....are we reading their blogs?
Our coaching teams.....
Blogs are awareness for us...
Clarify the tool of the blog - individual conversations......
Address the members individually.....
...How can staff about how they are using the blogging and how the blogging is or can help them grow?
Our Purpose: What are we doing to improve student learning?
Support and push staff so they can support and push students.
Redirect and refocus for staff growth.
Keep refocusing the work on student progress.
Almost being a critical friend to staff - asking questions to push staff to think deeply about why they do what they do.
Learn with staff and think with them about how they are progressing and growing.
Through questioning helping each other grow the PLCs at whatever place of development staff are.
Coaching, questioning, helping each other develop.
Push teachers to a more authentic PLC
Continually empower and elevate PLCs to drive our work.
...to continue to learn, refine and define the work of the PLC.
...support each other in reflective conversations.
Focus on the continuous improvement cycle.
