Standard 2: Instructional Leadership
Below is a sample PLC minutes from our weekly lesson plan meetings. We meeting at least once a week by grade level to discuss the next weeks lesson plans. This allows for collaboration and co planning to exist. This also allows for administration to view plans and provide positive feedback to help instruction. Our administration team also helps instructional in the classroom whenever possible. I have co-taught and taught several lesson this year. Every grade level has a recorder that uses this document during the meeting then these are share among the staff.
Our 6th grade team received a Bright Ideas Grant to help implement a grade level PBL project that was centered around mythology. This project had activities and lessons in every 6th grade core class including art and PE as well. The main focus was early Greek history and how that has shaped STEM, also our ELA classes also read the Lightening Thief Book and completed multiple projects through out the book.
Below are pictures from our 6th grade Greek project.
