7. Engage with Coach

Feedback was provided by Diane Gillam noting that the Unit Relationships needed further explanation in the FLOATING of the UO. The recommendation was to include 'Characteristics' in the UO. My plan is to include this information when Tying Up the UO with participants. 

Today, Joan and I had a coaching session with Patty via Zoom. We pulled together our plan of action for between now and March where we will hold another coaching session. We got questions answered and feel like we are well on our way to earning our fidelity badges. After submitting a number of unit organizers, we feel we are at the point where we can record these for submission

Thank you for the feed back.

I had a Zoom meeting on October 24, 2018 with Patricia Garner.  I have participated in 1st Fridays and Zoom SIM Coaching.  In addition I have attended the first 3 PD days in Harrisburg and am attending the next 2 days on Dec 4 and 5 2018.  

I shared emails with my coach and she provided clarification on ways to use the UO.  I submitted my draft UO and checklist to my coach and received helpful feedback.  I incorporated the feedback into the UO and used it with a class.  My coach showed me how to use the UO for reviewing for a test.  I recorded my lesson and wrote a reflection.  My  coach reviewed my audios and provided feedback.  She helped me prepare for drafting my next UO and using it to launch a lesson.  I sent her my next UO draft and checklist.  She provided feedback and showed me how to improve my UO and to make concepts clearer for students. I used the revised UO to launch a lesson.  I recorded my lesson, wrote a reflection and received feedback.  The process has been enormously helpful to support my new learning.  Her encouragement has been invaluable to me gaining confidence and skills. 

I engaged in a coaching ZOOM meeting with Diane and another colleague on October 25,2018.  The coaching session was very helpful.  We were reminded to make a revision on the SmartMoves Document whenever we do a new draft or have implemented a routine. Every time we do a draft, we get closer to earning a badge!
