PLC: May 29,
2013
Lisa T., Brittany, Katrina, Jen
Brittany and Katrina took the suggestions made in our last
meeting and implemented them into their math groups. They were extremely impressed with the successes observed
with their students.
Katrina tried grouping math groups differently and keeping
them consistent and working with the same teacher for the week. She felt better with the learning and
engagement going on and the students seemed more settled with the groupings.
Brittany made the lessons in her math group more individualized
and is noticing greater success with her students. She is also not focusing on one objective for a long period
of time and students are excited for math because it is “fun”.
She is working towards a final project with fractions where
the students will use fractions to create a pizza and then they will create
their own individual pizza to eat.
Fun!
We discussed how well the PLC went this year went. The ideas, conversations and projects
that were discussed were engaging and exciting. It was great to get a different perspective on activities
and also to feel free to discuss successes and things that didn’t go well in a
safe environment. We look forward
to continuing with this PLC format for next year.
