ICLE Visit 1/30
We are excited to meet back with our ICLE consultant Ann Broomes. We will be meeting in the conference room.
Teachers should bring: pre-assessments, formative assessments, lesson plans, and student products and or summative assessment data from one assignment/task. This is really going to help us collect data for our campus and help to keep us focused and moving in the right direction.
