SAS PD Vision by Steve Laatsch https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq Each building admin team should provide a summary of what they learned from their grade levels / departments as it relates to vision, SAS learner profile, student focus groups, timeline of the work, etc……YOUR TITLE SHOULD BE THE NAME OF YOUR SCHOOL en-us 2017-10-27 11:30:21 UTC 2017-10-27 15:23:58 UTC hello@padlet.com Harvest Elementary https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201233759 Student focus groups: Need to ask recent graduates too. Don't forget cross representation of students.
Vision/Learner Profile: Clarify that the attributes are what we want our graduates to demonstrate. Some still believe that this is a checklist of more to do v. looking for where these attributes are already being integrated. They should not be separated from core content.
Timeline: Rather than saying create new lessons, what is already being done and share those lessons.]]> 2017-10-27 15:06:28 UTC https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201233759 Special Ed https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201233936 Special Ed staff felt viewing "will" statements as levels of complexity was much less anxiety causing and easier to incorporate. Most feel 3 year plan was a bit aggressive, feel 4-5 years more realistic.]]> 2017-10-27 15:06:51 UTC https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201233936 Saline Middle School https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201234318 - Teachers are looking for anchor/poster of learner profile (Holiday Present idea?)
- Feeling great about 4Cs, struggling - with "Student Attributes"
- Timeline fair, would like more time to create mini-lessons that actually TEACH the student attributes, not just a check-list
- Rubric could be helpful, but also could feel overwhelming to some if there is no teaching around the rubric
- Can we look at the whole student's schedule to see where the student attributes are implemented; not only department work]]> 2017-10-27 15:07:32 UTC https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201234318 Heritage https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201234328 -Many of the attributes can be integrated within the classroom. -
- If the intention is a stand-alone lesson, then the rubric would be beneficial.  If the intention is an integrated lesson, then the planning guide would benefit.  
-The protocol was well-received by most; there was a bit of a disconnect between elementary teachers at Heritage and the fact that it was a secondary question.  
-Teachers want to know from the perspective of the kids, what is the definition of "real-world".  Most were unsure of the timeline.]]> 2017-10-27 15:07:33 UTC https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201234328 Woodland Meadows https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201234418 Overall the teacher leader meetings went well. Teacher leaders feel the timeline is adequate, in one teacher's words "VERY generous". Teacher leaders liked the step-back protocol but were concerned that younger learners were not included in the survey. They felt, with the hard work on moving toward future focused classrooms, the elementary students would have answered very differently.  Teacher leaders feel that it is overwhelming, but to quote another leader "in one day there may not be time for everything, but in the whole of the school-year there is enough time."  Teachers feel like they are already embedding these attributes. The rubric could be a tool if rolled out with cross-district groups to review and understand it- and no mandates on using it.  ]]> 2017-10-27 15:07:45 UTC https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201234418 Saline High School https://padlet.com/laatschs/4a2bzbx31djq/wish/201234803 - Overwhelmed with the variety of initiatives
- Focus on one or two things and dive deeper
- People want to get better at the attributes and compass
- Explain the focus and the different parts of the district goal
- More time with departments to discuss where the attributes are within each lesson and each class. Are they all being covered in the core classes within each content area?
- Micro-credentialing an option (why are we doing it)?
- Each department can figure it out for themselves

Goals set by admin team for layout/expectations. 

We are developing self directed learners through reading and writing workshop. We are using our Makerspace to integrate all 8 aspects of our of the compass. Collaborative and positive communicator is used during our book club. Creative Innovator is also PLTW. Motivator and Self directing during mindfulness and utilize brain breaks.

Self Direction - choice seating; can’t flexible seating- teaching our kids to have a voice to address each child’s needs; News cast; PVLEGS, 

Collaborative Leaders: STAR, Basketball Bonanza, Student Council, Hornet News Crew, Safety Patrol, 
Globally Connected: Pen -Pals, Adopt a family, Animal Shelter, How can we make the world a better place, guest speakers (senators, Grandparents day, fire chief, police chief, Basketball Jones, Mayors, veterans, PR alumni, mentors)

Digitally Literate /Financially literate  - tech responsibility, fundraiser

Specials Team: more focused on incorporating into their cross curricular area

Common vocabulary would help for the district wide. Age Appropriate vocab used (the 8 need to be used starting in the elementary)

Specials Team: No - would rather have a peer support/feedback/observation of our teaching practices in a collaborative environment

Grade Level Teachers- we are already doing this and we don’t need the rubric, but we do need the release time to identify how we are already doing this. 

More collaborative approach where teachers are observing and sharing with other grade levels. 

More of a goal/guideline for lesson planning for attributes to drive and develop good instruction

Cross district meeting - needs to happen more then 3 times a year. January 2019 would be great start time for work .
