Teams have shared their reactions to the pacing guide and assessment alignment. We will not address that in this weeks PLC. This week before PLCs independently review your data asking yourself.
- In looking at this data, what pops out at you? Not focusing on pacing guide alignment
- Why is this data important?
- If this data remains constant, what might be the possible consequences for our students?
- What are your hunches about what might need to happen next to impact this data?
- What further questions do you have, and what additional data is needed?
During PLCs, teams can share their reflections to note.
- Here’s What! filled with specific facts (Ex: 30% of Grade 2 students did X?
- So What? is an interpretation of the data
- Now What? can be action steps.

Instruction: The greatest gift I have ever received as an educator is the opportunity to visit so many classrooms and observe great teaching taking place in different styles and with a variety of nuances. I learned more from my observations of you than the hours of PD I embarked on as a teacher. I want to share that gift.
To get started, I would like to gather a list of teachers who would be willing to be observed and a list of teachers who would be interested in observing in other classrooms. We will all eventually visit each other's rooms. You can put your name on both lists. Ideally, teachers could observe on their grade level and another grade level to gain deeper understanding vertically. Please sign-up here for a rich learning experience through non-evaluative peer observations.
