Study Group Review Meeting Jennifer Herbold February 19, 2014
Agenda • UbDs & Cheat Sheet • Study Group Goals • Curriculum Days • NMSD Insider • Work in Groups
UbDs & Cheat Sheet • Reviews are progressing. If you have not gotten your UbD reviewed, let us know. • Submit in a timely manner so you can get sequential feedback. Often, the feedback for all of your UbDs are the same. • Do resubmit after receiving feedback. • “Expert teachers” will get less and less feedback as time progresses. • Some problems with Essential Questions. More problems with Assessment/Evidence. • Review Cheat Sheet.
Study Group Goals • Data Driven Instruction: • Put on hold for this year. • Have a clear written plan on how you will gather baseline and ongoing data on your students next year. • Complete key standards if not done so already. Those will be reviewed/incorporated in our standards lists via highlighted text during the summer. • All subject areas/grade levels should have a list of key topics for each course taught. This should come from the standards. The key topics will help guide our pacing/UbD development. • Give each other feedback on UbDs.
Curriculum Days • Heather is now working on organizing curriculum days. • We will, with your and your supervisors’ input, assign staff to work in different curriculum groups. These groups will be largely similar to the Study Groups. • We will have subs for you those days starting at 9 and ending at 3:20. • We will work on various study group goals. Some groups will have additional goals (ELA-Literature List Review, for example). • Curriculum days will mostly occur on Tuesdays.
NMSD Insider • http://www.nmsd.k12.nm.us/intranet/nmsdinsider/general/ • Refresh for new pages every once in a while (does not automatically refresh). • Password to Subject Area Resources (Units, pacing guides, etc): 1885. We did not want those open to the public. • If you feel anything is missing, let Jen know. • This is a work in progress. A lot of curriculum things will be added in the next couple of months. We will review the contents of NMSDInsider again later. • NMSDInsider and PowerSchool should be your go-to websites.
