This is how I believe the successful accomplishment of my goals will lead to improved student learning.

Students will have a better understanding and deeper knowledge of biomes. The needs of diverse learners will be met, effective technology will be implemented, and the teacher will be successful with the lesson plan.

 

This is how I plan to evaluate my progress toward reaching my goals. (checkpoints, indicators of success, etc.)

I will be present during the lesson and observe student learning. I will also watch to see that the teacher meets his goals. If their goals are met, then mine will be too.

We agree to work together as a collaborative team to implement this plan.
