Clarity of vision and a definition of PLCs. Utilizing that time to reach other music professionals. Additionally, creating a unified vision of music PLC to define the roles of our positions. Providing us time to analyze data about formative and summative assessments .

Connect K-2 P.E. Standards to TK.
Connect 3-5 P.E. Standards to units and growth goals related to the FITT components which will align with 6-12 power standards and growth goals at the upper levels.

# data[].attributes.body
Finalizing the alignment of 12th grade standards all the way through 8th grade, and the beginning of middle school. Utilizing this time to arrange Quaver standards to backwards planned beginning band standards.

# data[].attributes.body
Focused on analyzing, developing, and assessing skills that students need to grow throughout the inquiry process. These processes taught us that sometimes students don't know everything we think they do.

# data[].attributes.body
Instruction was intentional and focused on the K-12 Fitness Components which was the beginning of the year power standard. Findings include student demonstration of concepts in formative assessments and in physical performance activities.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Bridging standards of the music departments between grades 5 and 6.

2. Identifying the specific skills required of students to transfer into a middle school band environment.

3. Apply effective formative assessments to the students throughout the unit cycles.

Slowing down and focusing on boulders saw an increase in performance.
Looking at vertical alignment and recognizing what students need from each course.

Researched and developed deep understanding of Fitness Standards and Assessments. Developed alignment of formative and summative assessments for K-12 fitness.

1. We focused on bridging the standards between 5th and 6th grade music.
2. We focused on formative assessment strategies that apply in a relevant manner to standards and curriculum.

Rotating calendar.

PLC calendar to help with planning of units and data. A cycle maybe WIN, Grade Level, Profiling.....

# data[].attributes.body
Sharing our cycles amongst the group made our planning stronger. All of us are stronger than any one of us.

# data[].attributes.body
More choice over what we want to accomplish and opportunity to meet with other PLCS or other people (ex. people who want to work on standards based grading).

# data[].attributes.body
We seem to either run out of time to accomplish things in a quality manner, or we rush to get it done. We never get to profiling students, sharing ideas for individual students, multiple strategies to help struggling learners, etc. We never get to, "What do you do if a student is not getting it?"

# data[].attributes.body
Common planning time would be crucial for program alignment and planning purposes.

Vertical alignment discussions between 2nd and 4th grade in math.

# data[].attributes.body
More vertical alignment with elementary class. Work through science kits with elementary staff

# data[].attributes.body
I am proud of our team for accommodating and adapting to our specific needs

# data[].attributes.body
Time to update new team members about the previous PLC work so that their is better understanding of what we have already done. Why we did it, when to use it, how to find the PLC stuff, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
It would be nice to add in time during PLCs to prep for the units we have planned.

We appreciate the PLC and PD committee having teacher input. We would like some PLC time designated for discussing the ELA curriculum adoption and time for planning together.

# data[].attributes.body
Continue the work we have already started to allow us to complete what we have begun.

Have time to concentrate on MAP information. Use the data to guide our WIN time.

# data[].attributes.body
Continue to work on CFA and unit planning as this is not completed yet.

# data[].attributes.body
Looking forward to working on streamlining math using Achieve the Core, standards, and IXL. Also we want to create common formative and summative assessments and continuing to look at ways to beef up math fluency.

Time to update the curriculum map based on the new curriculum.

We would love to be able to plan units together during PLC's, prep. and review accomplishment results.

# data[].attributes.body
We have a diverse team and are extremely supportive of each other
Great vertical conversations with middle school and high school

Appreciated the 15 day inquiry circle for planning my formative assessments and review.

Vertical Alignment between the primary grades and planning our new curriculum.

# data[].attributes.body
There are benefits to using a day-by-day unit plan versus a set-in-stone calendar layout. This allows for better flexibility.

# data[].attributes.body
Planning with our new piloted curriculum.

# data[].attributes.body
We look forward to more team unit/inquiry cycles--using the new curriculum (adoption process).

# data[].attributes.body
Most of units went longer than the 15 days, even though we thought they would be shorter. We did look for trends in academic outcomes, and did find some. Our data was more positive and useful for the students that had good attendance. It is difficult when students miss a week+ and they are absent for the pre-, post- , or most of the instruction.

Vertical Alignment, Team Building with CC

Looking forward to using common writing rubrics that will support ELA and other content areas.

# data[].attributes.body
By focusing in on the specific standard students were able to better retain information.

# data[].attributes.body
As a team we came up with creative ideas which facilitated greater growth for students.

# data[].attributes.body
We have a deeper understanding of rubrics and how to calibrate scoring for leveled reading.

CFA and Unit of Study alignment

# data[].attributes.body
We learned being consistent with scoring was a challenge with writing. The inquiry cycles take a long time to plan and follow through with the whole process.

# data[].attributes.body
We are excited to see a variety of grade levels work together and have data driven assessments to support all students.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Our first grade team aligned and edited all of our Go Math Chapter Assessments with the State Standards. :)
2. Our first grade team created writing rubrics for conventions, opinion, informative and narrative writing, including student rubrics for each to help them improve their own writing. We came together and checked in with how we graded writing using these rubrics. :)

# data[].attributes.body
We are looking forward to our third year of collaboration, building on the standards based rubrics for writing, standards and test alignment. We are excited to dig into our new reading pilot options.

# data[].attributes.body
We added in an additional layer using Alphafriends, ABC Bootcamp to teach letter identification and sounds

Created a unit of study for a standard that is often overlooked - text features.

Created many common formative assessments.

# data[].attributes.body
We were able to start to collaborate as a 6-12 grade band again and that was nice.

# data[].attributes.body
We planned writing cycles for the year and used common rubrics that assessed the standards! Whoohoo!

# data[].attributes.body
We completed three inquiry cycles together.
We relied on our 4th grade standards posters to guide our work, updating weekly.

We have a much deeper understanding of how targets build into a standard. As well as how to use formative assessments for those targets.
