Site Supervisor Visit!

I have shared my Action Research Plan with my site supervisor during a meeting after school one day this week. He and I have met many times to discuss this plan and also the training I helped to provide our teachers already. This meeting was just a review of what we had previously discussed and agreed upon, and looking at it in writing. I shared with him the suggestion of the collaboration addition to the plan and he also thought this was great idea since he is requiring all teachers to have stations up and running in their rooms after the holiday break. My site supervisor was able to come to my classroom and do a walk through during station time this week by chance. He was very pleased with what he saw. He noted that all students we on task and actively participating in math only activities. He also noted that conversations about math were the only ones taking place between students. I happened to be in a station with a child that was struggling with a concept and he enjoyed the dialogue of how to appropriately navigate the station, referring back to our classroom activity and lesson, as well as what he was going to do with it later. The site supervisor felt the child had a better understanding and displayed this by his ability to successfully work in the station once I moved on. This was all great news and hopefully will provide our students with the tools they need to succeed in math.
