Staff Meeting Monday, October 11
In preparation for the staff meeting on Monday, please review the reflection questions:

Please place short answers to questions 3 – 6 on sticky notes and place the sticky notes on the chart paper in the meeting room (in-service center) on Monday morning. We will begin at 9 am at the in-service center.

1. What is your current understanding of coaching and AMSTI’s expectation of you?

2. What do you think coaching should “look like” in your work?

3. How would you rate yourself in terms of coaching abilities at this time?

4. What are your strengths?

5. What are your needs?

6. What coaching skill(s) do you want to focus at this time?

7. What is your “next step”?

8. What else do you need in order to do this?

Proposed Change in scheduling:

Can we move the October 25, 2010 staff meeting to November 1^st and move the November 8^th meeting to November 15^th?  AND Delete the November 29^th?

Reminder from Steve:

Has anyone sent out any information concerning NAEP? If so, please let me know. If not, please do not do so without consulting me first. All communication concerning NAEP must be approved through the SDE beforehand.

From STEVE:

Gang,
I need for you to let us know BEFORE you send anything out regarding NAEP training. We will also give the Assessment Section at the SDE a copy so they will know what is going on.
