Go for your Goals!


Goal setting is a great time to work with your fellow educators to improve in your individual teaching practice and to improve as a school.  Use the following structure to set up your own goal setting professional development for your teaching team or PLC (Professional Learning Community) or for your next staff meeting.  

Steps and Time: 
5 minutes:  Each group member will spend five minutes reflecting on their teaching practice, personal goals, building, and district goals.  They will write down their ideas to share with all group members.  (Record on data collection sheet)
5 minutes:  Groups members share their ideas and identify the needs of the group.  (Record on data collection sheet)
10 minutes:  Engage in team-building activity to demonstrate the importance of the team, enhance collaboration amongst team members and to get the wheels turning for ideas of how to improve the PLC for all of our teachers. 
10 minutes:  Group discussion of activity and record recommendations of the group for future PD sessions and to improve the PLC (Record recommendations on data collection sheet)
15 minutes:  Whole Group reconvenes to discuss their findings and share out what was learned from the PD session.  (Record group findings on data collection sheet)

Happy Teaching and Goal Setting!
