Today Francine, Cheryl and I spent a very productive day working on our Exemplars project. We met early in the day at the local high school and quickly got down to work. I really enjoy working with these two women. They are bright and funny and have a good outlook about our project, and about teaching in general.
We spent a long time looking at the critical pathway for our project, setting deadlines and goals for each month between now and June. We were careful to align our dates and deadlines with the School Board's scope and sequence for the school year.
Then we had an upclose look at the Ontario Writing Curriculum, a new resource that is being phased into use in our school board. We decided that our Writing Exemplars project needed to follow the new OWA resource closely.
Here are some pictures of the day:
