  • Documentation & Reflection


    • Document: As a "Lead Learner"...
        • What specific shifts are you noticing in your own actions, priorities, language, questions, reflections and conversations that help shape the learning culture for which you strive?
        • More questioning......How do you know? Evidence
    • Reflect: Documentation & Reflection
        • What's the relationship? What connections do you see between documentation & reflection in your own learning?
        • In student learning?
          • at what cost?
          • to what benefit?
    • Communication with colleagues--what will that look like next year with no team member to reflect. I'll need to be mindful to reflect on my own.
    • Design 1-2 additional opportunities for students to engage in documentation and reflection of their own learning
        • Writing poetry--compare yourself to Jack in Love That Dog
        • How are you growing as a writer? What do you like about your writing? What new techniques are you trying? What are you proud of?

        • please post a brief description of each opportunity
        • add 2-3 student work samples from each opportunity
        • be sure to note any tweaks, modifications or iterations

  • Questioning

  • Feedback

  • Self-Monitoring & Assessment

  • Reaching Out & Pulling In
