Professional Learning Communities (PLCs)
First Step: Establish and maintain norms: A high-functioning PLC will continuously observe a set of behaviors that establish an environment of respect. Norms should be revisited at the beginning of each PLC meeting to maintain fidelity.
Second Step: The team will focus on addressing the Four PLC Questions when appropriate.
1) What is it we want students to learn? Goals are determined before or just as a unit begins
|
2) How will we know when the students have learned the content? CFAs are created based upon determined learning targets that include essential skills
|
3) How will we respond when students don't meet learning targets? Best practices are discussed and effective strategies are chosen for implementation in the classroom (Tier 1 remediation)

4) How will we respond when students have met the learning targets? Best practices are discussed and effective strategies are chosen for implementation in the classroom (Tier 1 enrichment)
