Professional Learning Community
Hello everyone! It is very important to collaborate with all your colleagues that you work with. It is also important to collaborate with the parents of your students. It helps my student’s behavior and participation when parents are aware of what is expected of my students at school. I just read an article that stated collaborative learning needs to be focused on what our students are learning.
Thanks,
Amy

Hi Theresa and Amy,
You may want to check out: Connecting Teachers, Students, and Standards by Deborah L. Voltz, Michele Jean Sims and Betty Nelson. There is a section on collaboration which I think will be helpful as a resource.
