Building Capacity
|
As Peer Collaborators we want to be available to facilitate collaboration among groups or between individuals. Peer Collaborators hope you will feel comfortable reaching out to us for reasons such as:
- Brainstorming ideas for lesson planning or classroom management
- Observing individual student behaviors or group dynamics in the classroom
- Sharing ideas or best practices
- Informally reflecting on lessons and/or observations,
- Lending a confidential ear to any issues or concerns that may arise
“As a peer reviewer I feel it is beneficial to both the person being observed and the observer. I have learned a great deal from observing and working with classroom teachers. It is a wonderful opportunity to observe your co-workers as well as their students. I have enjoyed seeing the routines and management styles of other rooms. I was able to get ideas and bring them back into my own classroom. In one classroom I co-taught a writing lesson. It was exciting to work with other students and rewarding to see their engagement. The teacher shared that she appreciated another set of hands, ideas and enthusiasm. Peer reviewing is a positive way to learn from one another.” -Kristy Jeffords
We are here for you! We want to help in any way we can!
Look for us in September 2015!
