As schools recover from pandemic achievement losses, educators need new teaching strategies specific to these fragile learners. Professional Learning Communities provide a supportive approach to instructional development as we strive to bring students back to grade level and beyond. ′PLC+: A Companion Guide for Leaders′ is a succinct guide for leaders to successfully implement pedagogy growth strategies with their teachers.
PLC+: A Companion Guide For Leaders is the right book at the right time. Where many of our original PLC leaders are reaching retirement age, we’re finding it necessary to revisit the core principles of PLCs, inspiring one another as we navigate turbulent times and leaning into the power of the PLC/Team. PLCs that use their time wisely advance student learning. Working together at optimal levels shows advanced positive impact in overall school improvement. The 14 major ideas provide resources in the form of self-assessments and tools to incorporate throughout a school year. I’d recommend PLC+: A Companion Guide for Leaders as an exceptional Team Book Study as you approach your next school year.
A successful school provides opportunities for teachers to collaborate about teaching and learning. PLC+: A Companion Guide for Schools provides the know-how in not only acknowledging teacher voice but also the steps to a thriving school culture.
