Keeping Elliott teachers in the KNOW!
Classroom Visits
I wanted to give you a heads up that I hope to visit your classrooms throughout the year to see all the great things taking place at Elliott. Please remember I am never coming in as an evaluator in any sense. I'm excited to pop in to see the learning taking place in your classroom and share it with others!
Math
Thank you for your willingness to learn alongside me as we implement Exemplars into our problem solving to develop the mathematical processes. I wanted to pass along the videos I just received so you can see more examples of how this looks in classrooms across the district. Please let me know if you need any support or would like to talk through this more.

Common Formative Assessment (CFA)
I would love to support your team in creating Common Formative Assessments. We can use a CFA to see how students are grasping a concept before a grade is taken on it. The information we receive from the CFA helps with targeted whole class or small group instruction, as it shows where intervention is needed. Please let me know if you would like to schedule a time to create some together.
