I do not see an advantage of only giving one early release day, other than more instructional time. It will not provide more planning time for teachers. ]]> 2021-11-17 15:55:06 UTC https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1897269914 sandyschneider https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1897307247 Teachers have expressed an interest in getting together with other campuses (maybe by feeder pattern) during Early Release days and/or planning-prep days. Many of our upper elementary teachers are "singletons" in their grade level and would love to collaborate with other teachers in their content and grade level. ]]> 2021-11-17 16:08:34 UTC https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1897307247 https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1897307821 Elementary teachers definitely need more than one early release day for conferences.

Currently this is done for ELA and the teachers have seen such value in being able to come together (especially when preps are not the same) to focus on student artifacts and next steps. ]]> 2021-11-17 20:41:23 UTC https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1897947657 katherinewoods1 https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1899501567 Removing early release days can also help minimize loss of instruction in elementary classrooms. If teachers teach more than one content, one subject is typically removed from the schedule for the day due to lack of instructional time.]]> 2021-11-18 13:33:00 UTC https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1899501567 https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1900507327 2021-11-18 20:25:45 UTC https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1900507327 melhow13 https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1900681024 2021-11-18 22:40:08 UTC https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1900681024 https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1900705491 I believe whole day teacher prep days would be welcomed by the teachers. Especially if they coincide with the beginning of a grading period, much like we do at the start of second semester. Having time to set aside grades, grading, etc would help teachers be in the right frame of mind to really reflect on data and how to move forward. ]]> 2021-11-18 23:03:39 UTC https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1900705491 lesliedurst https://padlet.com/vkrawczynski1/2kwio9mmf3ysp705/wish/1902216360 are planned on these early release days.
