A8 Have structures in place to determine talk time, noise level, independent work spaces, collaboration, and movement around the room. Have a system in place for asking for help, such as ask 3 before me. #nwresaPLCN

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

A8 Clear walking paths and have a consistent, designated area for everything. The floor needs to be clear of debris. Explicitly teach expectations for accessing and cleaning up materials. #nwresaPLCN

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

A8 What’s the purpose for everything that’s out and accessible to the students.” If it doesn’t have a specific purpose, you may want to rethink why you have it in the environment. Is the classroom clean, organized and labeled for student use? #nwresaPLCN

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

A7 Content and student preference also play roles in selecting everything from tasks to seating. #nwressPLCN

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

A7 The actual physical size of the room, clear traffic patterns, and a safe and orderly environment should impact the flexible learning environment. grade and age appropriate measures should be considered in determining environmental needs in the classroom as well. #nwresaPLCN

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

A7 504 and IEP needs impact the planning of a flexible learning environment. Sometimes a student’s prior experiences and mental health situations will determine the need for the student’s environment #nwresaPLCN

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

A3 Data collection and feedback should be ongoing and it should focus on the social and emotional well being of the learner. Find the deficits and determine the best interventions based on student preferences. Teachers and parents assist the learner in setting goals #nwresaPLCN

Q5 for tonight’s #nwresaPLCN Chat!

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

A2 encourage teachers to implement interest inventories to assist with student preferences. One on one student/teacher conferences model for students to see where they are in their own learning and set goals for themselves-discuss their own data empower them

@donna_cotton @SNormanDLF I agree 100%. Sometimes we over think it.

Building relationships with students - How do you do it? What are your favs? #nwresaPLCN #PLinNC .

[Traci Waters @WatersTraci]

@braveneutrino A1 Building relationships through parent nights -Allowing students to practice student led conferences with the teacher is always a great way to get to know your students. Ask students what they would like to learn and how.Involving students in the planning process
