CH Bonus: Collaborative Planning Teams

Planning as a team is essential. Many times, though, we find that time to plan is not on our side. Listen in on this Clubhouse Chat as we discuss how to structure collaborative planning teams with teachers!

Quotable

  • Sometimes conversations need more time. Splitting up that time throughout the week allows for those deeper conversations.
  • Modeling – practicing those activities in team meetings.
  • Practicing and perfecting – we know it’s as efficient  as it’s going to be, and as accurate as it’s going to be, and helpful to students learn and achieve.
  • Change our mindset to truly collaborate – give everyone a voice.
  • It can organically work out, without taking work home.
  • Do the pre-work: come prepared with a resource or something for that particular content area.
  • Don’t be afraid to slow down.

About the author, Gretchen

I am a teacher trainer and coach. Working elbow to elbow with teachers and teacher leaders to ensure instructional proficiency and student achievement soar lights me up. We have a real need in our nation for strong educators to remain in the field. My blog, book, podcast, courses and instructional materials are geared towards empowering teachers (and those that lead them) to receive the support needed to grow and thrive today, tomorrow and always.
