Where do you feel we should focus our attention moving forward this year to support PLC implementation and structures?  I would love to see us focus our PLC efforts more on student and educator learning and less on what we are teaching/planning for an upcoming unit.

What are strengths and areas of growth for our campus in the area of PLC? LKS does a great job of setting aside time for PLC, establishing and adhering to norms, utilizing an agenda, documenting meeting notes, setting a purpose/goal and constructively using our time together. Ideally HPLS would be at the heart of all PLC work, and we would continue improving in the creation and use of common formative assessments to plan and implement instruction for the edges.

Where do you feel we should focus this school year to move forward with MTSS as a campus? We should be cautious about scheduling interventions, so that learners aren't missing Tier 1 instruction for Tier 2 or 3 interventions.

What questions do you have about MTSS and how can the district/campus support you moving forward? I think I just need to see the MTSS process being modeled, so I can find the best way my singleton role can help support our campus' efforts.

What are our next steps for implementation of the Panorama platform at our campus? I think we'll need more training about how to utilize the Intervention piece, but it seemed intuitive. I love that we will be able to access all information about our learners in one place. I see purposeful uses for the "groups" function, too.

How can this platform help us with our goals for PLC and MTSS moving forward? When we analyze the learner data housed in Panorama to help guide instructional decisions, we will be able to better address the needs of the whole child with customize instruction.

What are we currently doing with our classroom practices for small group instruction and formative assessments? More grade levels are using unit pretests than ever before so instruction is meeting the needs of those learners on the edges.

What are our next steps to strengthen implementation of intentional small group instruction? I see small group instruction in some content areas, like reading and math, more than others, like science and social studies. This is an area in which we can strive to grow.

What types of formative assessments are we using to increase engagement levels and how are we using assessments to plan, evaluate and measure learning? I like clothesline and 4 corners-types of activities to increase engagement and promote discussion and critical thinking. To impact planning, I like to use KWL, responses to journal prompts, thinking maps, and unit pretests. Self-reflections in person or via Bulb, exit tickets, revised KWLs/thinking maps, etc. are all great tools to evaluate and measure learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Our focus for PLC should be on the Big Ideas. We should focus on "learning".  Just because information is taught, doesn't mean all students learned it.
Our campus strengths- we meet collaboratively as a  2nd grade team including our IC, LAS, AP, GTI, etc.. and we have great communication. Our weakness is that we sometimes focus on our own students.
Often times it is easier to focus on interventions and not enrichment. The Panarama platform has all the data we need to focus on all 4 questions.
We can use Panarama to create groups and set goals.  Data for the whole child is in one spot!
We use several assessments to aide in forming small groups, including formative assessments. I will definitely use the Panarama platform to create small groups.
Some types of formative assessments we use are jot lot, reflections, sticky notes, think-pair-share, turn and talk, etc..

# data[].attributes.body
Our campus has created a great structure for our PLC and MTSS to work together.  I feel like we do a great job at looking at the whole child.  I think that Panorama is going to be a great resource to have all of our students data in one spot.  This will help us use our time intentionally and purposefully.
New hires will benefit from our support and the overall structure that we have created as a school community.  Agendas allow us to stay on track and focus on our purpose for each meeting. I think this not only helps veterans, but it will help guide new hires as well.

Strong relationships with all of our stake holders will be a huge focus this year.  Working TOGETHER will help us serve all of our students.

Questions:  What is the best way to help support staff push in to utilize their time wisely?

Panorama: I cannot wait to utilize this platform to to help with grouping.

Next steps: Collaborating with my team to discuss  how we will share learners.  Use data to form groups.

Formative assessments: exit tickets, thumbs up/thumbs down, quick checks, turn and talk, think pair share, journal entries, Number sense routines, exemplars, observations

# data[].attributes.body
In 3rd, we are excited to get back to really sharing all the kiddos in the grade level during small group instruction time. The formative assessments are great tools that will add to the overall picture of what objectives a child has or hasn't mastered, which will allow us to understand which objectives need more time and when it's time to move on.

# data[].attributes.body
Small groups are pretty fluid. Sometimes it is interventions but it can also be used for instruction with different groups learning different things. Next steps might be trying different types of small groups.

# data[].attributes.body
Strengths: Small group instruction is constant and flexible. It is utilized for support in RTI, extension, strategy groups to scaffold areas of weaknesses

Next Steps: Utilizing CFAs to support those groups based on specific standards

# data[].attributes.body
The curriculum does not always align with the amount of time that we need to incorporate small groups.

# data[].attributes.body
Small group instruction needs to be more purposeful and needs-based.

# data[].attributes.body
We will continue working in small groups and we will use different kind of formative assessments to engage learners.

# data[].attributes.body
4545 made small groups about compliance instead of need. When learners track their own data, informal assessments can create engagement.

# data[].attributes.body
We are really good at using these! We want to make sure we are being intentional in our using of these in the classroom! We also talked about being intentional in planning our small group instruction and making sure that all of our learners are participating in meaningful learning or are learning with purpose!

# data[].attributes.body
Currently: We spent a lot of time with the same small groups of kids in the last year especially.

Next Steps: More intentionality and creativity in planning ways that we can meet with all of our kids in small group and to plan effective small group instruction.

# data[].attributes.body
We are currently leveraging Prime Time for small group instruction and are working on adding more small groups, especially in ELAR. We feel like formative assessment is a huge strength on our campus. Our plan is to be more intentional with pre-assessments and using that data to create small groups.

# data[].attributes.body
During virtual learning, small groups and formative assessments had to adjust to fit the situation.  Our next steps are to set the foundation of routine formative assessments and creating the classroom structure to implement these successfully.  We'd like to utilize skill-specific, targeted CFAs on a regular basis to get quality data.

# data[].attributes.body
*Moving forward, we want to focus on bringing the same data to the meeting so we can all be prepared to deep dive in and create actionable steps for our learners to be successful.

*What supports does the District have in place to support our learners that have been identified as needing extra help/supports through MTSS? (Besides moving them to a Tier or then doing FIE).

Consistent expectations across the campus will allow for all educators to access data for the whole child. A next step would be for us to dig into the tools of Panorama once learners populate in our dashboards.

# data[].attributes.body
I want to come up with a system that allows students to analyze their own data and determine which activities are “just right” for them. While I continue ensuring direct-teach small groups are data driven, while being formed/pulled.

# data[].attributes.body
Great tool to house information that people can contribute to/will follow the learner as they move grades.

# data[].attributes.body
An area I would like to improve on is doing small groups more frequently. I added in stations with small group as one but would like to increase the use of this model.

# data[].attributes.body
The first steps will be getting into the data and exploring. It will be nice to have all of the information in one place. Possible QUICK PLs on how to access all of the different data. This information can help us look at the whole child to decide the best intervention(s).

# data[].attributes.body
Excited about information following learners from one grade level to another. We also love how everything is housed in one place! In CTT, even if we’re not in the same room we can discuss a learner because we’ll have all the info.

This school has a very collaborative culture that will allow any further inertia into improving PLC culture easily.

# data[].attributes.body
One place to find the data is helpful! The smaller the group, the better the data, and bigger the impact.

# data[].attributes.body
Next Steps: Some of us will start by learning to login and some of us will start by learning to create forms, etc. :)

How can this platform help us?: We love that every piece of data about a kiddo is in one spot. We know that will be so beneficial for us. We are also excited because it looks like creating an intervention plan in Panorama will be easier and more efficient than in SuccessEd.

# data[].attributes.body
I’m looking forward to help with intentionally structuring small group time and different formative assessments. Panorama will be a great house for all of our data. This feels extremely streamlined.

# data[].attributes.body
This platform will help us continue to drive our instruction, create small groups, and implement quality instruction that focuses on intentionality and working to support the whole child.

# data[].attributes.body
We are looking forward to exploring Panorama more and love that it is a "one-stop-shop" platform. It better equips us to see a snapshot of the whole child (attendance, behavior, academics and SEL) and utilize this data to serve the whole child.

We are so excited about MTSS! We love the idea of a more formal way to name a lot of the things we are already doing! We feel like we are really good at looking at the whole student and talking about all of the aspects that play a role in their education. We are wanting some support in the steps that come after us and after classroom teachers.... We are so excited about Panorama and being able to see multiple data points on students and classes.

# data[].attributes.body
A data protocol would be helpful to keep us focused on the 4 PLC questions.

Next steps- create extensions and interventions and implement them with fidelity.

MTSS goal for the school year- continue the conversations from last year with a focus on implementing what is decided during meetings.

Panorama- excited to have data on the whole child all in one place to analyze.

Small groups- focus on more CFAs in between pre and post assessments to make sure interventions are happening and the right small groups are being formed.

# data[].attributes.body
Small group can be effective for the success of the students that need to focus in a specific area. Panorama is a good strategy to collaborate with coworkers to know more about students. The small group can engage the students in subjects

I am excited to grow with PLC and focus more on implementing the discussions. I liked how PLC is supposed to be focused on discussing the data and a plan. It is not a social hour. I enjoyed learning about MTSS and realized we were doing this already as a campus! Overall, I think panorama will be a great resource whenever we get our students in! I love the idea of getting to look at the whole child.

# data[].attributes.body
We should be doing pre-assessments, form groups, teach and then assess to change groups.

Common formative assessments would be more valuable than MAP for small group instruction.

We are building formative assessments as a team and breaking it down by TEKs.

We want to put learners in small groups intentionally as a house to make use of resources and expertise.

Exit tickets, anchor charts, rubrics,  graphic organizers, performance tasks and learner accountability is important for engagement.

Giving learners choice in how they want to show mastery and involving them in the process.

# data[].attributes.body
Moving forward this year: We can continue to remember that quality Tier 1 instruction includes differentiated instruction. If a kiddo is still receiving the exact same instruction as his/her peers, then we aren’t providing the best Tier 1 instruction we can.

Questions: What can we do to ensure that every student receives quality Tier 1 instruction, even if he/she is being pulled out for other interventions? Can we be creative with our schedules or research opportunities?
