June 27, 10:15– 11:30am, Room: Champaign This session will share the Teacher-Based Team 5-Step Process of the Ohio Improvement Process through the journey kindergarten teachers took as they learned to be reflective of their practice and form a professional learning community. Their story will show how teachers adjusted their curriculum materials to match the learning needs of their students in their core instruction program; used data to inform the grouping of students; incorporated additional intervention time on a daily basis to scaffold and differentiate instruction; and made transparent data and effective instructional practices the focus of teacher-based team meetings. Main Presenter: Angela Butterman, Kenton City Schools Co-Presenter(s): Melissa Good, Kenton City Schools; Julie Bertling and Valerie Robb, Consultants, State Support Team Region 6; Angela Kimmel and Katie Park, Kenton City Schools
