Learning Together

Work with your co-teacher(s) to review a sample TEAMS Meeting Protocol.Then, conduct your own TEAMS Meeting as a co-teaching team. Before you begin, reflect with your co-teacher(s) on:

• How often and when does your team evaluate your level of performance?
• What steps can you take and commitments can you make today to ensure that your co-teaching continues to improve over the last few months of school?
   

Directions:
1) Open the sample TEAMS Meeting Protocol completed by the co-teaching team of Webb & Adams.  

2) Review the sample protocol and notice:

• The team's performance ratings in TRANSLATE MISSION INTO ACTION and ENGAGE ALL LEARNERS

• The New Performance Targets set for students under ASSESS STUDENT PROGRESS FREQUENTLY

• The targeted areas of improvement under MAXIMIZE MOMENTUM and SYNERGIZE

3) After discussing the sample, download a TEAMS Meeting Protocol template. Remember to save the template to your computer and rename the file to include your team's name (ex. TEAMS Protocol_TeamCTE). 

4)Collaborate as a co-teaching team to conduct a TEAMS Meeting. Use the directions in each section to complete the template.

• Complete Part 1: Review Co-Teaching Performance
• Examine information on the Snapshot Data Tool and complete Part 2: Assess Student Progress Frequently
• Conclude your TEAMS Meeting by completing Part 3: Target Co-Teaching Improvement. Be sure to note your individual goals/commitments for the last quarter of school in the Synergy section. You will post these goals/commitments in the Just for Me activity that follows.
