In this session, Chris and Jeannie will articulate the value of layering collaborative structures and processes within a school to support all students and staff. The session will demonstrate how when structured appropriately, the fundamental components of Collaborative Response and Collaborative Problem Solving can work synergistically to respond to the needs and lagging skills of all students, while increasing the instructional capacity of all staff involved. Chris and Jeannie are both lead learners who teach daily and understand complex classrooms. Come learn what nine years of fine tuning has done to improve these purposeful collaborative structures and processes to ensure every student and staff is supported by a team. Participants will leave with new ideas and resources to help them with their next step.
