What Factors Have Led to Our Success? 2 Words= Reflection and Feedback We set time aside for personal and team reflection, collaboration, discussion, planning, assessing, data collection and analysis all in a continuous cycle We ask students, families, Fellows, Coordinators, Teachers, Principals, District, Blueprint, etc. what’s going well and WHY? What can we improve and HOW? (4 min) © 2013 Blueprint Schools Network. All Rights Reserved. For DSSN, DMF, and Blueprint Use Only.

Prompts to Brainstorm With Your Partner © 2013 Blueprint Schools Network. All Rights Reserved. For DSSN, DMF, and Blueprint Use Only. What do Fellows need to know and be able to do in the week before kids come? What do Fellows need to know and be able to do in the first week with kids (i.e before groups are formed and instruction starts)? What do Fellows need to know and be able to do in weeks 2-4 (i.e instruction begins)? What might you monitor during this time to assess solid implementation? What are kids doing? What do Fellows Need to Know? How might I monitor? Week before school starts 1 st week-little to know instruction Weeks 2-4 implementing instruction (20 minutes)
