What is our focus?

WHAT WE HAVE SAID TO TEACHERS:
The focus of the Spring Showcase will be on answering the question:  How did our collaborative learning in our PLC contribute to students success in the classroom and increased student achievement for all students?

As we continue, remember that the focus of our PLC work is learning, collaboration, and results.

Our PLC work together is to be focused on efforts that will really make a difference in student learning. 
Big Idea #1: Ensuring That Students Learn

What will our PLC try that will impact student learning?

How will this contribute to student success in the classroom and increased student achievement for all students? 
Big Idea #2: A Culture of Collaboration

How will we work together to impact student learning?   
Big Idea #3: A Focus on Results
What results will we measure to determine if our effort improves student learning?

 SOOOOOOOO.......

WHAT IS OUR FOCUS WITH OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM PLC?

Some ideas that came from our discussion on Wednesday, January 30th:

• Are we looking at improving student learning, improving teacher learning, or BOTH?
• A couple of ideas for our focus question:
• How do we help each teacher succeed?
• How do we lead staff to ensure that the PLC work impacts student achievement?

Some of our tools include our coaching teams and our book studies.  We agreed to continue our study of the book "The Talent Code".  We are reading the first 100 pages.
