Keeping Elliott teachers in the KNOW!
Wow!
- The Jeff Anderson writing training we attended was fabulous!
- Kyanna shared with the Kinder team what she learned from Jeff Anderson about focus statements and how to compare and contrast sentences.
- Julie Omas attached 2nd Grade's BP4L document for Math to her weekly planner in Eduphoria!
- Thank you for sharing your planners with me!
Kinder collaboratively planned Grammar Talks and chose a sentence from The Tortoise and the Hare which they read the previous week.
Fifth grade has a very productive half day collaborative learning last Monday! Way to go!
My brother got married!
PLC... Collaborative Learning... Collaborative Planning... What am I doing?!
Professional Learning Community (PLC): This is who we are as a campus, as well as a district. PLC is not a specific time or place.
Collaborative Planning: We are collaboratively planning when all team members give input to plan. Team members are discussing how a concept is going to be taught, determining the pacing, discussing specific questions we want to ask students, and thinking about how we can make this an interactive learning experience for all students.
Math Updates
