  3. The Goal of the School Team Training Series Support collaborative learning focused on increasing student achievement in Tennessee. How Will We Achieve that Goal? • Peer-led discussion and collaboration • Direct applications to our classrooms and schools • Focus on student work

  4. This summer’s School Team Training Series has three tracks • PreK -2 Math & Literacy • Grades 3-12 Math • Grades 3-12 Literacy All Faculty will be assigned to either Math or Literacy training. OMS Learning Leaders: Literacy: Kane Ayres, Nona Carver, Stan Green, Jill McGuire. Math: Holly Dare, Janie Holland, Angie Jordan, Kent Smith.

  5. We saw significant growth across all areas on the 2013 NAEP assessment.

  6. Note: ACT data is based on students who took the test in the standard time only, to allow for comparisons to previous years. The score for all students including extended time was 19.0. But we still have significant work to do. 2013 12th grade NAEP results showed Tennessee lagging behind other states 19.3 19.2 19.1 19.0

  7. Because... EVERY student deserves a meaningful and rigorous education!

  8. Our goal Our goal is to be the fastest improving state in the nation, again. When we do so, students in Tennessee will perform above the national average in reading and math.

  9. Guiding Principles Across all grade-bands and subjects, there are common guiding principles for each TNCore training. • All students are capable of achieving at a high level • Students rise to the level of expectation when challenged and supported appropriately • Students learn best when they are authentically engaged in their own learning • We must continuously improve our effectiveness as teachers and leaders in order to improve student success • We must make every minute with our students count with purposeful work and effective instruction

  10. Rally Robin • One challenge you have faced in the transition to the new state standards. • One student that inspires you to surmount these challenges.

  11. What this Training Series Is and Is Not

  12. The School Team Training Series will be an over time experience for our school.

  13. Continuous Improvement Cycle – Math/Literacy

  14. Materials • Everyone will have a spiral bound handbook—Participant Packet, either Math or Literacy. • All materials we experience in training are posted on www.tncore.org • Username: tneducation • Password: fastestimproving

  15. Norms for our Training • Keep students at the center-of focus & decision making. • Be present and engaged- limit distractions, if urgent matters come up, step outside. • Monitor airtime and share your voice- you’ll know which applies to you! • Challenge with respect- disagreement can be healthy, respect all intentions. • Be solutions oriented- for the good of the group, look for the possible. • Risk productive struggle- this is safe space to get out of your comfort zone. • Balance urgency and patience- we need to see dramatic change and change will happen over time.
