Directions • Commonalities: Compile a list of 3 -5 things they all have in common. In order for it to make the list, it must apply to everyone in the subgroup. Avoid things that are obvious and easy (e. g. “we’re all in education, ” “everyone has arms, ” or “we are all wearing clothes”). Dig deeper! One Vision ● One Team ● One Greece

• Uniquities: Compile a list of at least 1 “uniquity” for each person. Each “uniquity” applies to only one person in the group. (Again, go beyond the superficial; avoid things people can readily see or know).

Unpacking the Teacher Leader Model Standards One Vision One Team One Greece

• We look to standards when considering: – Curriculum Design – Assessment of program and participants – Delivery of instruction

• In our work, we often strive to “operationalize” the standards. – If proficiency is being met, what would you see? What would you hear? – If proficiency is not being met, what would you see? What would you hear? – In other words - What does meeting or not meeting this standard “look like”?

Standards are the baseline for our work together!

Directions • Look at TLMS Domain #1 • What are the knowledge, skills and dispositions attached to this standard? • Table groups craft a description or list of these for the domain & chart these as they are developed. • Groups develop charts for the remaining domains as assigned.
