After taking a quarter 1 STAT Chat survey created by myself, I found that CLETS teachers were interested and had questions about Classflow. I then talked with our admin about our dates for the next extended grade level meetings. I arranged for Jennifer Dingle, our BCPS Classflow consultant, to attend our extended grade level meetings. The meetings would begin with our admin and data review. The second half would be with teachers, Jennifer, and I producing Classflow lessons or activities based on the data that was reviewed. At a previous TBT (Team Building Tuesday), we brainstormed questions and concerns that we had about Classflow. Teachers came with various background knowledge of Classflow. We first experienced Classflow from a student’s point of view. We engaged with the various activities and tools that Classflow had to offer. Teachers were then given time to create their own Classflow resources. Each grade level was able to customize and personalize their Classflow creation. Some teachers started from scratch while others “shopped” around the marketplace to see what was available for use. Teachers in grades K-5 were ready to immediately take their new learning back to their students right after their exploration! Primary teachers were highly motivated by some of the new activities that Classflow had to offer while intermediate teachers were engaged with creating lessons for small group instruction. We were highly grateful to have Jennifer attend our extended grade level meetings to work one on one with teachers. We challenged her in a positive way and had tons of fun!

I am looking forward to hosting my next optional PD as a Blackboard online Meet Up involving Classflow. Teachers will share some of their favorite Classflow tools that they have been exploring with. Teachers will be able to collaborate with future Classflow ideas and express continued questions.
