It will need to be modified for my team and I, but we did not get the chance to meet as a team to plan out how we can adjust to make it work when we only see our students once a week. It would have been nice to be able to have the time set aside to do that since one person on the team is 0.5 FTE, two buildings planned PLC time with a focus on the writing PD and another building had PD on Purposeful People."
