  5. A PLC is made up of team members who regularly… • collaborate toward continued improvement in meeting learner needs through a shared curricular-focused vision • Facilitating this effort are: • collective challenging, questioning, and reflecting on team-designed lessons and instructional practices • team decisions on essential learning outcomes • intervention/enrichment • activities based on results of common formative student assessments.

  6. Effective PLCs also Support: • Radical Celebration!

  7. PLC Team Norms • Norms are ground rules to identify behaviors that will help us do our work and discourage behaviors that interfere with a group’s effectiveness. • Norms exist . . . whether or not we acknowledge them!

  8. Categories of Norms • Time and Attendance • Confidentiality • Decision-Making • Participation • Leadership

  9. Norms Refinement Activity • As a team: • 1. Reread your team norms. • 2. Determine if each item listed is a valid norm or not. Use the handouts to help you assess your work. • 3.Cross off the items listed that are not actually team norms. • 4. Consider adding any additional norms which would help your team to have courageous collaborative conversations. See list of sample norms. • 5. Submit your revised list of team norms.

  10. Norms Sharing and Celebration

  11. SMART Goals Review • Specific • Measurable • Attainable • Results-Oriented • Time-Bound

  12. SMART Goal Sniff Test • You must be able to answer YES to these seven questions for it to be a SMART goal: • 1. Is the SMART goal we have listed really a goal (or is it an activity)? 2. If we say we are going to increase/decrease by a percentage, have we listed the baseline (where we are starting)?

  13. Sniff • 3. Does the goal include the results of studentperformance? •  4. Is the goal specific enough to accurately measure?

  14. Sniff Some More… 5.  Will we be able to achieve this goal as it is currently written? (It’s okay to set the bar high.) 6. What will be the measurable results at the end of the time frame for our goal? 7.Have we set a time frame for our goal?

  15. Goals-Activities-Action Steps • Goal: the result or achievement toward which effort is directed; aim; end • Activity: a specific deed, action, function, or sphere of action that will be taken to completion

  16. The Difference is What Matters • Why Timely?: Because we care to identify students who need our help • Intervention based rather than remediation: how might each student’s learning change if a SMART goal helped to identify their need in the regular school year and assisted them? • What if your SMART goal was directive, actually requiring students to devote extra time to important concepts not mastered?

  17. SMART GOAL REVIEW ACTIVITY • In your teams: • 1. Review your SMART goal/s. • 2. Consider comments provided on the yellow handouts. • 3. Analyze your SMART goal using the “SMART Goal Examination” handout. • 4. Consider each person in the group and all students. • 4. Revise and update your team’s Goal/s as needed. • 5. Select a team leader for your PLC. • 6.Hand in an updated copy of your team’s work including one copy of the “SMART Goal Examination” handout.

  18. SMART Celebration
