6. The Role of Norm(s)
“Teams improve their ability
to grapple with the critical
questions when they clarify
the norms that will guide
their work. These collective
commitments represent the
‘promises we make to
ourselves and others,
promises that underpin two
critical aspects of teams—
commitment and trust.’”
~Katzenbach & Smith, 1995

different vertical
collaborative team and
from a different level
(where possible).

listening dyad protocol to
discuss the focus of the
passage.
• Discuss the concepts of
trial and error, risk, and

12. SIP: Where Have You Been?
• Use the timeline to
document the steps you
have taken to develop
your SIP plan.
• What work have
you done on your
SIP plan to date?
13. Creating a Narrative
• Creating a narrative—or telling your story of your
learning and doing—is an essential part of
developing and monitoring your SIP plan.
• As your site monitors and documents your
progress, you will need to systematically record
the processes for developing your SIP, the impact
of adult learning, and the results from
collaborative teams.
• Here’s an option that will be studied further:

14. Individual Narrative
• Determine protocols for
individuals to systematically
document the learning and
doing
• Build in structures where
individuals draw conclusions
about their work and inform
their practice and professional
learning
• Have individuals analyze their
learning and work at the end of
the year
– What did I learn this year?
– How did I grow and change as a
result of my learning?
• Celebrate the learning and doing
of individuals

19. Walk & Talk: Processing the Protocol
• Join a colleague from your
vertical collaborative team
and discuss the following
two questions during a 10
minute walk and talk.
– How does what you
experienced today inform
and/or shape your work
leading collaborative
teams?
– What did we hear or learn
that impacts our work with
the SIP and PD plans?
21. Aligning Our Efforts
Think about our collaborative efforts
to deepen our teachers’ engagement
with and understanding of Question
1.
1.Curriculum will continue to facilitate
the development of units of
instruction based on standards and
best practice.
2.PD will structure district PD
meetings to structure collaborative
meetings and sustain teachers’
engagement with question 1.
3.Buildings will develop their action
plan on core instruction to sustain
and deepen teachers’ work on
question 1.

developing,
implementing, and/or
monitoring your SIP’s
work.

negotiables” for how our collaborative teams need to function?

Preferably, those in yoga
are not invited to share.
Editor's Notes
“ Smart goals on outcomes will never change the outcomes” “ Boards want to see what you’re doing (results) in the first two columns.”
The “District Focus” remains the same regardless of the outcome of Q-Comp vote
One of the processes and protocols that will be used during our meetings is “Numbered Heads.” The person at the farthest left of the table is number 1, the next person is number 2, etc. We will invite a number from each table to share perspectives, etc. that were generated at your table. For the interpretation of the quote, have #3 share.
