was well worth it to begin to focus vertically and see what other
levels had completed Level teams need time to regroup and move
forward with pieces that they want to tweak or change based on work
with other grade levels Most teams have essential learnings
identified (some need some tweaking using the guidelines from the
September District PLC/Curriculum Meetingsee powerpoint on
wiki)

- November Early Out Meetings, cont. General Observations Most
teams have essential learnings matched to standards Most teams have
identified the prior skills/knowledge needed for students to be
successful The level of specificity is still quite varied in the
Content/Skills section (where the team should put all of the stuff
that they will teach to get to the big, enduring essential learning
Teams have a variety of assessments developed, but continued work
on common assessments is a high priority Facilitation of the teams
is still a work in progressthis will be a focus of future
conversations for the district team.
