Action Planning Template

Goal: Due to a continual drop in Math scores over the last few years our administration has decided to move from departmentalization in 4th grade to self-contained classrooms.

Tina,
ReplyDeleteGreat job so far with your action research plan. I like this topic, and the comparison between departmentalization and self-contained is interesting, and relevant. Keep working hard, and I know you'll achieve all of your research goals.
