Observation Protocol 

The TN-TEAM observer observation process unfolds throughout the academic year, capturing a comprehensive view of team dynamics and instructional practices. Observations 1 and 2 focus on planning and the environment. This observation is conducted twice to determine growth. 

Observation 3 focuses on instruction. These observations often occur during regular school days, allowing observers to witness firsthand how teachers collaborate, plan lessons, and engage students in learning.

The Comprehensive Team Evaluation (job-embedded/GYO ) offers a summative assessment of the team's overall performance. This in-depth evaluation provides a holistic picture of the team's impact on student learning and professional growth.

By strategically timing these observations, TN-TEAM seeks to gain a comprehensive understanding of team practices, identify strengths and areas for growth, and ultimately support the continuous improvement of teaching and learning.
