The Big Ten Throughout the morning, take notes on essentials that you want to pass on to your administrator.

Team Process Using only your schema, try to fill in as many steps as you can remember As a table, share ideas and add to your process anything that might be missing

Walking through the Process Sheet ng

What Does it Look Like in “Real Life”? Using your notes and the COR: 1.Review the work of the “example team” notes on each step 2.Discuss strengths 3.Discuss needs

Time to Prioritize! What MUST the team do FIRST?

We must learn how to work with and guide adult learners toward new levels of competence, problem solving capabilities, creativity, and higher levels of achievement, while honoring and respecting their humanity and capacity to find their own answers.” - Dr. Kathy Norwood DESIGNS FOR CHANGE

Learning Team Training: Digging Deeper with Steps 5-7 Beaverton School District December 10, 2015

Objectives for Today Administration and Intervention Teachers together: Begin to Internalize the Steps to the Learning Team Process Share and Discuss the Big 10 Dig deeper with Steps of the Learning Team Process Step 5: Results Indicators (signal word) Step 6: Theory of Action Step 7: Reflection Provide an opportunity for implementation planning

Team Process

Step 5: Determine Results Indicators Must address: 1.What will I (teacher) do? 2.What will students do? 3.What will I see in their work if the strategy is working? Make the procedure explicit so it is replicable to achieve best results. Determine Results Indicators

A Tale of Two Gardeners

Turn and Talk What were the key differences in the approaches of the two gardeners?

What were the Results Indicators? What will the Gardener do?What will the Fuchsia do?What will we “Look For” in the Fuchsias? ● Choose a location based on the needs of the plant. ● Prepare the ground with compost and/or fertilizer ● Plant in rich, well drained soil ● plant the seedling at the proper depth ● provides the appropriate amount of water (lots for a fuchsia) ● drainage ● exposure to light ● Grow ● Lean toward the sun ● Sprout ● leaves are green ● firm leaves ● well formed flowers/fruit ● leaf shape ● attracts hummingbirds and bees

Time to Practice! Non-Academic ExampleDesired Outcome Cooking in a Crockpot Exercise with a trainer Building an IKEA bunk bed Planning a Party Giving a toast at a wedding You choose a topic! A meal that tastes good To be able to run in a 5k race To sleep safely in a new bed A fun party! To make the couple feel loved ______________________ 1.Working in groups of 3 or 4 2.Use the blank “Non-Academic Example” sheet in your packet 3.Determine the Results Indicators for one of these topics 4.Be ready to share!

Academic Example Now try results indicators for an instructional strategy: Interactive Read Aloud Quick Write: Jot down notes about what you want to remember for results indicators

Step 6: Create a Theory of Action If we ______________, then _____% of our (Step 4) (Step 2) students will be able to _________ by _______ (Step 5c) (date off your map) If we use gradual release with our note-taking tool, then 76% of 3 rd graders students will be able to write a summary of a nonfiction text by Jan. 22, 2016 Create a Theory of Action

Goal / Theory of Action Algorithm Pre-assessment Data Meeting/ProficientClose/ Approaching Far to GoIn Need of Intervention Teacher A (24)35106 Teacher B (26)23183 Teacher C (23)2669 Teacher D (27)112 2 Total (100)8/100 = 8%26/100 = 26%46/100 = 46%20/100 = 20% 100% of Proficient/Meeting = 8100% of Close/Approaching = – 75% of Far to Go, but Likely = between 23 and 35 students Less than 25% of In Need of Intervention = 0 – 5 students = 57, 57/100 = 57% = 74, 74/100 = 74% Theory of Action between 57% and 74%

Time to Practice: What would the Theory of Action be?

Step 7: Reflect, Monitor & Evaluate Reflect on the process on an ongoing basis Determine which steps went well, and identify areas where additional training or support are needed. Reflect on the growth made in each classroom. Discuss differences in instruction. Draft the next agenda. Reflect; monitor and evaluate results

In your school team take 15 minutes to do the following: 1.Consider the notes you’ve taken today 2.Decide on ONE next step that would best position your teachers to meet the yearlong outcomes 3.Be ready to share your plan Implementation Planning
