2. How is what you are learning being implemented? (e.g. through plcs, classroom observation, modeling…)

3. As an LST member, how have you supported your staff learning and implementation?

4. How is Instructional leadership supporting your staff learning and implementation?

Reconnecting

Instructional Collaboration Continuum

▪ HEADER - “are we building a continuum of trust OR is this about the principles of how we learn and grow as adults”?

▪ LINEAR VS CYCLICAL - Research – Joyce and Showers – each set of activities listed in the continuum builds on the one before. Not an endpoint as all activities continue to support learning.

▪ ULTIMATE GOAL - in an ideal world we want peers feeling comfortable learning from their colleagues (reciprocal – you watch me and I watch you – new skill/ new concept/ new process)

▪ KEY MESSAGE - We have trouble with the term - COACH

FINDING YOUR PARTNER

▪Make eye-contact someone in the room (not at your table) who is within 3 inches of your height

▪ Find a spot to sit

Continuum of Collaboration Part 1 of 3

▪ With your new partner

▪ When you consider this continuum, select one of the processes you have tried and describe in detail how your process worked.

Analyzing the Process

1.Does the description for the process make sense?

2.Within this process, have we missed anything within the LST role ?

3.Within this process, are there any skills that have been missed?

4.Are there any exemplars that you think we should add?

5. Is there anything that is unclear?

6. Overall/general comments about the continuum.

Continuum of Collaboration

Please return to your table group.

Please Post your notes on the section of the continuum you discussed.

Continuum of Collaboration Part 2 of 3

Considering your school’s goal:▪ Who is the most

responsible person(s)▪ How are these processes

divided or shared?▪ How might you have this

discussion with the rest of your team?

WHOSE ROLE IS IT ANYWAYS?

Continuum of Collaboration Part 3 of 3

SKILLS

SKILLS

Continuum of Collaboration Part 3 of 3

▪ As an individual

▪ Identify the skills that are most important to you

▪ 3 dots - All your dots in one “basket” OR spread your dots across processes

A bit of skill development…

Finding a new team:

▪ Find your new partners – there will be 3 of you

▪ Bring a pencil and piece of paper/post it note

▪ Find a place to sit

What are you looking at?

▪ Identify who will be A, B, C▪ A –relax▪ B & C –draw a picture of A’s

head…detail isn’t important

– you will track where A’s eye go

Person A

▪ Think about how many light switches are in your house?

What are you looking at?

▪ B –relax▪ A & C –draw a picture of

A’s head…detail isn’t important

– track where B’s eye go

Person B

▪ How many right hand turns did you take to get here today?

What are you looking at?

▪ C –relax▪ A & B–draw a picture of

A’s head…detail isn’t important

– track where C’s eye go

Person C

▪ Solve the following problem – no pencil and paper

▪ 35 + 42 – 11 + 4 ÷ 2 =

Compare your sheets

▪ What did you notice?

Did you know?

40-60% visual learners3-5 seconds

10-20% auditory learners1-3 seconds

20- 40% Kinesthetic learners6-14 seconds

Implications of Pausing…

▪ Pausing for 3-5 seconds in classrooms results in:

–Positive changes in affective climate–Positive changes in the quality of classroom

interactions–An increased level of cognitive functioning–An increased level in academic achievement;

and–A decreased number of behavior problems

Listening Set Asides

1. Autobiographical – telling our own story

2.Inquisitive –sidetracking the conversation with questions about our own curiosity

3. Solution – “I know what you should do…”

▪B: Ask questions, clarify

▪C: record B’s wait time and questions/responses

With your trio: debrief

▪ What was the wait time?▪ When was the wait time? (after a question; after the

person responded)▪ What types of questions/responses were given? What

happened to the conversation as a result of the questions/responses?– Any autobiographical?– Inquisitive?– Solution focused?

With your trio:

▪C: Think about the learning continuum and something you want to try with a PLC team or your staff. Explain this.
