Calling a parent with the whole "team" is more effective than calling by yourself! As teachers, we can always use more parent contact for both positive and negative reasons. In fact one of the Dean's complaints is that NOT ENOUGH TEACHERS CALL HOME. Problem solved.<BR/><BR/>It also seems that CTT is a reacurring theme throughout the year. SLC should also be the perfect venue for this as well. <BR/><BR/>My frustration with SLC is that it is a place to discuss alot of ideas, none of which become reality.....acountability is key. How do we make ourselves accountable for the great ideas in which we develop?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17020107.post-7074049904769593682008-06-10T09:02:00.000-04:002008-06-10T09:02:00.000-04:00Could SLC time be used to speak with Paraprofessio...Could SLC time be used to speak with Paraprofessionals and plan meaningful CTT lessons?

Maybe if they had the chance to touch base with their cohorts in an SLC and talk about students and modified lessons, we would have a complete communication base. Is there anyway that paras can be included in at least 1 SLC a week? They should not only attend faculity meetings, but a true SLC particularly during "Kid Talk"! <BR/>Signed the invisible ones.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17020107.post-91278007321401822402008-06-10T08:46:00.000-04:002008-06-10T08:46:00.000-04:00it is not the nature of the slc that may be in que...it is not the nature of the slc that may be in question, but rather how we spend our time. some of us would like to see the time used to plan with our ctt partner to develop meaningful collabortive lessons.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17020107.post-49905348339741189222008-06-10T08:14:00.000-04:002008-06-10T08:14:00.000-04:00I don't think this is anything to overanalyze. I ...I don't think this is anything to overanalyze. I think it is plain and simple. Some people do not believe in the philosophy of this school, or some people did and with the growing number of unexpected changes believe that the philosophy has "flown out of the window."<BR/><BR/>It is important to acknowledge the fact that the other building who opened up with us "Law, Enforcement" something or other had the same philosophy but has gotten rid of DEAR, SLC's and ADV's. Their main complaint was scheduling. Very similar to our scheduling problems. Maybe people see the absence of SLC's as a start of re-structure?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
