Vision for Adult Learning Communities

Picture
We believe that change happens through collaborative teams. Through the thoughtful use of these tools and resources, learning communities can work toward the vision below.
​
All teachers in a learning community will work together to
  • Continue to deepen our practice of collaboration;
  • Treat teaching as groupworthy; 
  • Take collective responsibility for the department and all students, holding high expectations and a common vision for what it means to be a math learner; 
  • Continue to work towards strengthening collective knowledge of content and of teaching within and across grade levels through reflection and refinement; 
  • Each year, attend to community safety (in order to be vulnerable) and to building on each other’s unique strengths, so that our team grows and develops, working towards sustainability.
