Implementing Learning Progressions by Linda Laughlin https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation CCL Board Meeting Focused Review en-us 2021-11-19 02:50:28 UTC 2025-11-18 10:00:31 UTC hello@padlet.com Kyle https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902337536 Be explicitly clear what the learning targets in the program's lesson and making sure that the targets strongly drive the lessons and learning experiences and how you customize the learning using the program as a primary resource. This works well for our Math Program which is Ready Math and our writing program which is Units of Study.]]> 2021-11-19 15:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902337536 Having clear expectations of what evidence looks like. Not only at the proper taxonomy level but multiple ways and not just “surface” demonstration. You want deeper and rich understanding and being able to demonstrate proficiency over time. https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902342020 2021-11-19 15:30:19 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902342020 In August there was some grumbling, but we were able to diffuse it by showing our targets and progressions. We were very clear about our “curriculum” and there is no evidence that their fears were being taught. https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902349862 2021-11-19 15:33:48 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902349862 Room 2 https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902431068 Pat- Teachers aren't using CCL learning progressions but are building their own.  Coaches and Leadership Team members are working to develop them.  Data wall also informs learning progressions (i.e. students were struggling with phonics).  The curriculum materials (program) was selected based on the needs of the students.

Tracy- Her system has spent a lot of time with mathematics.  Her district is using the American Reading Company materials that are laid out as progressions and is a framework for a continuum of learning.  It's been a good addition for her system, and they've used it for a couple of years.]]> 2021-11-19 16:09:35 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902431068 Teachers put "I Do" statements on the board. Exit tickets based on learning targets https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902431119 2021-11-19 16:09:36 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902431119 Room 2 https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902431205 Beth- Coaches developed a "fidelity document" regarding the guidelines that should inform their teaching - focus on the learning target and what the program is suggesting for instructional strategies and the specific content that shows up within the lessons/unit.

Pat- Full time coaches and part time coaches- Student Centered Coaching and it's working really well.  Coaches have been able to effectively leverage a focus on progressions as they support the learning facilitator as they address student needs. Coaches don't have any other responsibilities other than working directly with teachers.

Travis- Small schools so the principals are spending 40-60% of their days engaging in educational leadership activities.  (Principals have been relieved of handling the minutia that can take a lot of their time.) This has facilitated the principals abilities to coach learning facilitators (provide feedback) and recommend/ provide resources.  They've found this to be very impactful on instruction.  Travis's system relies heavily on feedback and makes this clear to all employees.

There was a reflection on the fact that those coaches who are working as teachers or are working closely with the coaches have an "easier time" with acceptance than those who are full time coaches.

Tracy has two coaches that have been instrumental in moving their efforts forward.  This is lacking at the high school level.

There have also been challenges regarding LBGTQ+ issues- bathroom renovations that now offers unisex facilities.

Pat- There's a specific member of the community that has expressed concerns about content being taught. Her district is being challenged with LGBTQ+ concerns. Travis agreed that this is also a concern within his learning community.

Tracy- Addresses questions weekly. She's also interacting with a group of individuals that want access to "everything". The group wants to review all curriculum documents, websites that teachers are using, complete book lists, etc.]]> 2021-11-19 16:09:42 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902431325 Kara https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902452568 We have our Intermediate Unit providing PD during our scheduled early dismissal days with our K-6 staff focusing on the Why, What are LPs, Why do we need them, What can they do for us, etc. ]]> 2021-11-19 16:19:08 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/CCLLPImplementation/wish/1902452568
