Recommendations

Activity #4: Cross-District Sharing

• Make eye contact with someone from another district– One minute each to share what your district is

doing or an “A-HAs”

Connecting Educator Effectiveness and Common Core

• Provide guidance on instructional strategies and techniques

• Inform job-embedded, ongoing professional development

Educator Effectiveness and Common Core both…

able to do– EE standards for practice (rubric) describe what

educators should know and be able to do
