Discuss how to create a sustaining culture for ELA teaching and
learning. Table 1: How can a school or district implement an action
plan that reaches across all content areas? Table 2: What does
supporting teachers to improve instruction look like in your
school/district/area you serve? Table 3: What needs to be in place
to help teachers, schools, or districts use data to make decisions?
Table 4: How does a school build leadership capacity around
sustaining change in ELA classrooms? Rotate to next group when
cued. Note-taker/facilitator stays with original group to share
findings and allow for more agreement/additions/discussion. Share
out as a whole group. Slide 7 Planning For Success Slide 8 Work
with others in your district. If you represent a BOCES, try to work
with a school you serve. Using the Planning for Success template,

coaches do? What can building administrators do? What can BOCES
representatives do? 8 Slide 9 9 Q & A Slide 10 Reflection and
