Cancellieri Analysis of Student Data, Pre-Conference, Formal Observation, Classroom Walkthroughs/Informal Observation, Post-Conference Instructional Planning 1.2, 1.6, 2.2, 2.3, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 5
6 PLANNING DIMENSION 1.3 Knowledge of Students Through knowledge of students and proven practices, the teacher ensures high levels of learning, social-emotional development, and achievement for all students. Distinguished Instructional Planning Includes: All lessons that connect to students prior knowledge, life experiences, interests, and future learning expectations across content areas Opportunities for students to utilize their individual learning patterns, habits, and needs to achieve high levels of academic and social-emotional success Guidance for students to apply their strengths, background knowledge, life experiences, and skills to enhance each other s learning A Focus on Collaboration What Do We Expect All Students to Know? What Do We Expect All Students to Know? What Do We Expect All Students to Know? Collaborative/common planning teams use the question, What do we expect all students to learn? to guide their planning. In doing so, their analysis of the learning standard(s) will include looking at the standard in the prior grade or course, as well as what will be expected in the subsequent grade or course. Collaborative planning teams may include multiple content areas in order to integrate standards or skills across content areas. As teachers collaboratively plan, they become experts in the standards that they are teaching. This allows them to engage students in being active partners in learning by creating I can statements. Students fully understand what they are learning and why it is important. Collaborative teams participate in action research, which leads them to incorporate best practices such as students working in collaborative arrangements, project-based learning, and technology integration.

What Do We Do if They Already Know It? What Do We Expect All Students to Know? What Do We Expect All Students to Know? As teachers work collaboratively and do action research, they will implement practices such as: High Yield Questioning Strategies. As collaborative teams review team data, they regroup students at Tier 1, plan for reteaching as well as extension. Student goal setting is a best practice that teams should research and utilize as they collect and use formative student data. Collaborative teams who plan in advance of instruction with the Four Questions Essential for Learning will plan to differentiate their lesson in response to Questions 3 and 4. Real-World Learning Framework for Elementary Schools Real-World Learning Framework for Secondary Schools Digital Tools and Practical Strategies for Successful Implementation By Marge Maxwell, Rebecca Stobaugh, Janet Lynne Tassell Pre-Conference, Formal Observation 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 7

In a professional learning community, teachers plan instruction, review data, and share best practices related to student achievement. This increases the expertise of each teacher on the team. There are many confi gurations of collaborative teacher teams. Many schools have cross-curricular teams that plan integrated instruction. As teachers plan together and consider the Four Questions Essential for Learning, they plan differentiated instruction, to meet the varied learning needs of their students. Collaborative planning draws on the expertise of the team. This allows for instructional plans to be more rigorous, differentiated to meet the needs of students, and aligned to standards.

Adapts lessons with a wide variety of instructional strategies to address individual needs of all students What Will We Do if They Don t Learn It? A key responsibility of collaborative teacher teams is to plan in advance for students who will not get it the fi rst time, as well as use formative data to reteach at Tier 1. Consistently monitors the quality of student participation and performance What Will We Do if They Don t Learn It? In a professional learning community, individual teachers will have the benefi t of ideas generated by their team for students who have diffi culty and the results of common formative assessments to use to adjust instruction.

A teacher does not shoulder this responsibility in isolation. Collaborative teacher teams share strategies that are most successful, which increases the level of instruction and achievement in all classrooms. Practices such as questioning and formative assessment are the type of skills that teachers learn when discussing and researching ways to increase student achievement. In a professional learning community, teams learn and plan in advance to utilize new and creative practices.
