Sample Professional Learning Programs
Curriculum, Assessment and Instruction Reviews
A good starting point for moving forward is to examine what you have. Angela conducts both informal and formal reviews of curriculum documents, assessment systems, and/or instructional practices. Using criteria established in partnership with the school community, Angela analyzes school materials and resources, meets with teachers, students, families, staff and/or administrators and visits classrooms to provide schools with observations, feedback and a plan of action for achieving their identified goals.

Written Feedback, personalized Conferences and Coaching
Regardless of the content or structure of the program, Angela always includes opportunities for feedback and individualized support in her programs. Sometimes, though, individual support is a school’s most urgent need. Curriculum, assessment, and instructional coaching support is available as a stand-alone service for administrators, teacher leaders, instructional coaches, teacher teams, or individual teachers.
