Such as:  I am struggling with getting my teammates to bring data in an organized way...
or, how does PLC and Personalized Learning fit together?]]> 2018-01-24 13:28:16 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/224195419 Admin Support https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/226268621 I'm struggling with PLC teammates "going over my head" to ask admin for permission to do things differently from what our PLC agreed upon doing.]]> 2018-01-30 18:54:36 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/226268621 I would like people in my building to view PLC is a "must" not "if we feel like it". How do you get that culture to change? https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/226279154 2018-01-30 19:12:33 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/226279154 Team Focus https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/226804171 There's one particular team still struggling to understand the purpose of a PLC and uses the time more focused on planning, chatting, etc. 
How do we help shift that culture?

However, that PLC is just my content partner and myself. How does a PLC connect to a larger team?

Many think it is just another day that takes up too much time. The quicker we are done the quicker we can get to our own work. How can we get more buy-in for this time? ]]> 2018-02-12 18:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/230751729 I would like to explore strategies for co-teaching that will help close the achievement gap for students on IEPs. https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/232547947 Kris]]> 2018-02-17 04:06:04 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/232547947 How can we expand PLC into other schools. For example 1 time a month CTE meets over SKYPE or other online meeting place to help expand PLC, how can we accomplish this for other departments.

I guess the real question is how do I monitor progress?

And, how do you do that with the least amount of resistance?]]> 2018-02-20 22:15:01 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/233539770 Follow Through tish_thomas74 https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/233568730 We have given CFA's and meet to discuss the data, but are having a hard time with sharing teaching strategies and follow through. Only 2/3 of us on our team are on board with PLC.  I find it difficult to force  anyone to do something they don't want to do. It's holding us back. 
Tish]]> 2018-02-21 01:07:17 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/233568730 My question is on how to get a whole bunch of singletons together to make a cohesive PLC. I know we’ve talked about it, but I’m looking for more on the process. koselak37 https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/233925976

However I feel that w=grade level work is mostly in isolation and wonder how we could more effectively vertically align across grade levels, skills, and standard bands...where do we find the time and paradigm? ]]> 2018-02-22 04:38:03 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/234079681 Does the PLC model include meeting vertically to gain knowledge and resources to better support students performing below grade level and above grade level on the selected skill/standard. Or, do these meetings with this other grade levels need to occur outside of the PLC time. koselak37 https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/234316949 2018-02-22 16:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/234316949 Interventionists https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/234515370 What is the best way for Interventionists to contribute to the PLC process? I'm thinking those of us who serve in gifted ed, special ed, counselors-- what are successful ways these teachers are impacting student success in meaningful ways? 
Jennifer Palmer, Scott Elem]]> 2018-02-22 22:22:49 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/234515370 I would like some advice on how to deal with teammates who do not feel like PLC is as important as it truly is.

Tamara Solomons]]> 2018-02-22 23:09:57 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/234525358 More than one focus https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/234527839 With the way PLCs are set up, there is usually 1 standard or skill that we focus on during the cycle. How can we manage our time efficiently so that our PLCs can have more than 1 focus.

Diverse grade level or subject area meetings would seem to  make PLCs a place for teachers who normally wouldn’t work together to collaborate and expand focus and encourage more collegiality. Hmmm...discussion?

J. Mackay]]> 2018-02-27 14:16:01 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/235874237 I'd like to explore the feasibility of integrating behavior/classroom management into the discussion around PLCs. Often the discussion is exclusively academics, yet, most teachers acknowledge that behavior and classroom management issues have impacted their ability to teach, run effective groups, etc. https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/236185818 Elmer]]> 2018-02-27 22:14:29 UTC https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/236185818 Ongoing Common Formative Assessments https://padlet.com/koselak37/c4v1lrq9gcpw/wish/236189443 The Cycle of Planning a Common Formative Assessment, Analyzing the Data, Adjusting Instruction in a CONSTANT CYCLE.
