Norms for the conversation
• At your table, review norms to help guide this morning’s conversation.

Today’s Learning
• As you participate in today’s teaching and learning, reflect on your understanding of the Superintendent’s Charge as well as the instructional leadership and distributed leadership necessary to fundamentally improve instruction.
• Additionally, consider how we will identify and meet the needs of EL learners throughout today’s learning.
Michael Fullan
• It is about learning to learn, about becoming independent thinkers and learners. It is about problem solving, teamwork, knowledge of the world, adaptability, and comfort in a global system of technologies, conflict and complexity. It is about the joy of learning and the pleasure and productivity of using one’s learning in all facets of work and life.
