Grades for Observation
Just a few observations in December January snow impacted observations, so
most completed in February. Little comparison data since just two before January
Implications
High level tasks in upper, lots of learning tools and metacognitive strategies in place
Need for high level tasks in primary, low yield practices but strong classroom management
PD around math workshop implementation (including high level tasks) and Balanced Literacy Focus with emphasis on running records and anecdotal notes
State Visits/PD Plan
Commitments made to doing the work, culture shift All Things PLC conference this summer in Syracuse Teacher leaders to lead teams & create high yield
lessons through high functioning/high impact teams with increased common assessments
Re-evaluating language arts block practices (Jan Richardson’s Next Steps in Guided Reading)
Sustaining work in math workshop Mindset…always Continue to develop RI as a foundation for our work
What’s next?
