Action Planning: NOW WHAT? ANY plans your team makes should be written into your Iowa Core Implementation Plan, Outcome Four Don’t Forget!
“Observation and Dialog” Requirement or one of the eventual “next steps” in this work is observation and dialog (Outcome 4, Action 4 c.1). This will not be prescribed, but should be occurring as part of the work to “prove” the reported enacted curriculum is actually being taught.
Some really BIG Questions! • How do we eliminate “things” not in Iowa Core? • How do we attain Core for “each and every”? • What will the alignment process look like in our district? • What does all this mean for professional development? • How will you communicate this information with all staff? • How can we institutionalize this process across time? • What are the measurable goals and how are they monitored? • What else do we need to be looking at?
