Professional Learning Communities: A Quick

• Collective inquiry (Best practice and current reality)
• Action orientation and experimentation• Continuous improvement (student and
teachers)
• RESULTS ORIENTED

Four Critical Questions
• What do we want each student to know?• How will we know when each student
has learned it?• What will we do if a student has
difficulties learning it?• What will we do for the students who
already know it? (This question was added after the publication of On Common Ground )
• Whatever It Takes

10
From On Common Ground
• From isolation to collaboration: Frequent, continuous, and increasingly concrete and precise talk about teaching practice.
• Goals of collaboration focused on achievement (achievement that is documented by data)
• Recognition and celebration of superior practices and their results
PLCs are about..• Caring deeply about learning.• Feeling free to take risks.• Challenging each other and
raising the expectations of everyone.
• Respecting and valuing perspectives other than their own by seeking and valuing every member’s input.

11
• Intentional in seeking to do the work better.
• Aggressive in continually building capacity of each member to work smarter.
• There should be some urgency in our drive to improve student learning.

12
Creating Norms
• On separate pieces of paper write down 3-5 non-negotiables that you want to have as your PLC norms—independently (no discussion)
• With your colleagues, group the ideas
• Evaluate and synthesize ideas into 3-5 group norms.
www.swprsc.org Helping teachers improve student learning
13
Guiding Questions for Team Norms
• Are we clear on the commitments we hae made to each other?
• Have we stated our commitments as explicit behaviors?
• Have we discussed how to address the issue if we feel someone is not honoring our norms?
• Do we have a plan to review the norms at the beginning and end of each meeting?

PLC Report
• Suggested…Administrators will review
• Use it for a semester and then revise
• Show samples• Create a Google Doc for agendas

College and Career Ready State Standards
• In small groups, create a K—W—L for your knowledge of CCRSS
• Why is it important for you as coaches to remain positive and informed about these standards?
www.swprsc.org Helping teachers improve student learning
17
District Initiatives--Walk Through
• Student engagement• Feedback/checks for understanding• Technology• Objectives posted• Activity matches posted objectives• Kagen Cooperative Learning—
discuss • Student Discussion• Project/Problem-Based Learning• Building Level Targets
www.swprsc.org Helping teachers improve student learning
18
CCRSS Shifts
• Regular practice with complex texts and their academic language
• Reading, writing, and speaking grounded in evidence from texts, both literary and informational
• Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction
www.swprsc.org Helping teachers improve student learning
19
Appendix A—download or use paper copies
• Literacy Coaches need to read this thoroughly and refer to it frequently
• Text Complexity—Three parts and chart on page 8
• Reading Foundational Skills K-5 (syllable types)
• Three types of writing
www.swprsc.org Helping teachers improve student learning
20
Appendix A
• Speaking and Listening– See last paragraph page 27
• Language—progressive skills (see page 31)
• Vocabulary—Tiers I, II, III

Review Webb’s DOK
www.swprsc.org Helping teachers improve student learning
23
24
Depth of KnowledgeDepth of Knowledge
• Webb’s Depth of Knowledge levels:
Recall and Reproduction: Level 1
Skills & Concepts: Level 2
Strategic Thinking: Level 3
Extended Thinking: Level 4
25
Extended Thinking: Level 4 Extended Thinking: Level 4
DOK 4 requires high cognitive demand and is very complex. Students are expected to make connections—relate ideas within the content or among content areas—and have to select or devise one approach among many alternatives on how the situation can be solved.
Due to the complexity of cognitive demand, DOK 4 often requires an extended period of time.
26
•The Depth of Knowledge is NOT determined by the verb, but the context in which the verb is used and the depth of thinking required.
27
• DOK 3- Describe a model that you might use to represent the relationships that exist within the rock cycle. (requires deep understanding of rock cycle and a determination of how best to represent it)
• DOK 2- Describe the difference between metamorphic and igneous rocks. (requires cognitive processing to determine the differences in the two rock types)
• DOK 1- Describe three characteristics of metamorphic rocks. (simple recall)
Same verb—three DOK levels
Multidisciplinary Performance Task
(MDPT)
www.swprsc.org Helping teachers improve student learning

• Your experience• How does it fit with DOK4?• What preparation did you have?• What do you need?• How can you support other
teachers?
