Gayle Gregory returns to Rhode Island with PLCs

Last time Gayle Gregory visited Rhode Island for the RIASCD was three years. At the time, Gayle was supporting our understanding of differentiated instruction. There is no question that differentiated instruction and professional learning communities go hand-in-hand, but how do we implement these strategies with success? Through her new book, Teacher Teams That Get Results: 61 Strategies for Sustaining and Renewing Professional Learning Communities, Gayle Gregory helps to demystify the practice of building relationships and support structures that help all students.

If you have not had the pleasure of reviewing this book, please consider previewing a copy by clicking on the book image. Additionally, we are anxious to hear your feedback and learn more about how we can support your community. Therefore, we will be piloting our new blog, RIASCD Lantern, to provide a forum for your interests. Please consider using this resource, as we hope to share the discussion with Gayle prior to her visit. Also, we will be posting our first podcast including an interview with Gayle Gregory in the week following the conference.
