Leadership+Plan

What will you contribute as a new literacies teacher leader?
 * Leadership Plan (Created at Institute) **

Generate a 3-2-1 action plan that consists of: A) Three goals you want to achieve by the end of the year. 1) Have two Flip cameras with tripods in my classroom so that students can generate their own videos throughout the 09/10 school year. 2) Implement the New Literacies Inquiry Project within the first quarter of the school year with students in grades 1-3. 3) Incorporate into the classroom at least one new “cool tool” in a content area.

B) Who are two people you will collaborate with to achieve those goals? 1) My school: Alley Mcauley: Media coordinator for Carpenter Elementary. 2) New Literacies Institute: Kristen Caldwell 1st grade teacher Douglas Elementary

C) What is the first realistic step you will take to address this plan? The first realistic step would be to introduce the students to the Flip cameras and how to successfully operate the camera. After introducing the students to the Flip camera then show them how to upload the videos into their own files on their server at school. ** Leadership Plan ** · ** Kristen Caldwell and Alley Mcauley will help with the implementation of getting the teachers on Voicethread and help using the program. ** 1) Pose the question “How many of us use technology while teaching reading or as a follow up to an objective that you have taught?” 2) Let teachers share what technology they use. 3) Share Voicethread of Goldilocks and the three bears via http://maburch.wikispaces.com. Pose the question “How many objectives in reading and technology do you think were covered in that one Voicethread?” 4) Let teachers share what they think. 5) Show the Standard Course of Study objects via http://maburch.wikispaces.com of what objects were covered in one Voicethread. 6) Pose question “What other ways could we use Voicethread in the classroom in regards to reading?” 7) Let teachers share what they think. 8) Show teachers how to create a Voicethread. (With help from Kristen Caldwell, and Alley Mcauley) 9) Let teachers create their own Voicethread. One Voicethread per grade level. (Alley, Kristen and myself will help teachers use the program) Grade level teams will also have to compose a list of reading/technology objectives were covered in their Voicethread. (Have copies of grade level objectives for reading/technology for each grade.) Or teachers could refer to[| http://www.dpi.state.nc.us/curriculum/] for their grade levels objectives for reading/technology 10) Let grade levels share their Voicethread, and share objectives that were covered. 11) After each grade level has presented show more technology resources that could be used in the classroom in regards to reading. Examples would be: A) [|http://Wordle.net] B) [] C) [] D) [] E) [] F) [] G) [] H) [] I) [] J) [] K) [] 12) Pose question to each grade level “what is one technological tool that you learned about today that you would like to incorporate into your grade level?”
