Instructional Rounds

Many variations exist in the instructional rounds model.  Our model provides at half day of professional development to each teacher who wishes to participate.  Those teachers meet for a 30 minutes preparatory conversation, then travel to the classrooms of 4 colleagues in varying disciplines lifting out practices working well for students in positive, non-evaluative language.  The visiting group then meets to debrief the experience.  Here is a sample packet each participant would get which details the agenda and captures the note-taking tool as well as the reflective experience.

If the identified dates and times don't pair with your schedule or you have a more specific interest, for example, specifically visit the classes of your team members, reach out to us and we can plan and schedule a more customized learning experience.
