Hello CLC Members, Happy Teaching with CLASS Thursday!
In this episode, Deidre Harris is back. We go a little deeper into the ways the CLASS tool can help us get on the same page with our colleagues and create our team vision to agree on how we want to work together. We also use the CLASS to help us think about how to manage sticky situations because, as Deidre reminds us, it's not an if; it's a when. What sticky situations have you been in recently in your classroom? What resources did you use, or what actions did you take to resolve them?
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this episode - and if you're comfortable, share your team agreements below!

Best,
Allison
