Action Plan and Reflection: Week 2

My action plan's purpose will focus on how to include all stakeholders, specifically teachers, in the decision-making process. This would best be feasible through the increased participation in SBDM committee and PLCs. My campus is not familiar with PLCs and would most benefit our campus by increasing communication and fostering collaboration in a vertical sense. Although we meet at grade-level meetings, it is not the same as a third, fourth and fifth grade teachers meeting to discuss reading strategies or math practices.

The interviews for this week's lecture where Mr. Briseno and Dr. Chargois discuss the link between qualitative and quantitative data made so much sense. We do this on a daily basis. I see how my students perform on benchmarks and scrutinize each objective and parallel it with the questions missed. Still, I also think about whether or not my students had a good breakfast, were they upset or feeling sick, or is there an underlying family issue that has been ongoing and affects my students psychologically.
