Instructional Coaches

ICs met on 11.6.18 and spent the morning focusing on coaching strategies to improve planning, data analysis, coteaching and reflecting.  The afternoon was dedicated to Essential Instructional Practices, data analysis and the Read By Third Grade law.  Coaches are partners for teachers in their PLC and the goal is to strengthen practice in literacy to improve student outcomes.

Building team is important to collaborative work.  An inclusion activity starts the day of learning

PD for Early Childhood Specialists

A day of learning for Dearborn staff on 11.6.18.  ECS gathered to focus on data analysis of their kinder students and teamed to do a case study on one of their students.  ECS also focused on Struggling Readers-a text in the LLI kit-and spent time analyzing how to use student performance (running records) and progress monitoring to determine next steps for instructional planning.  A joyous yet tiring day.

Battle Against Hunger

Bring canned goods to your schools in the annual Battle Against Hunger from November 12-16. There is a walk/run race to kick this event off on November 10th at Ford Field. A very worthy initiative and led successfully by our Dearborn students the last several years.
