Planning a Little PLC

I need these texts so that I can plan some professional development for next year's school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Smith's classroom raised $243

My Project

Hello!

I am looking to take on a leadership role at my school by planning some professional development.

My goal is to offer some book studies or PLCs based on the books in my cart. One will focus on coding, the 2nd will focus on pedagogical approaches including cognitive, sociocultural, critical, and sociohistorical ideas.

Please help if possible to provide these materials so that I can learn and grow in my studies as well as allow me to teach others in my PLC and school community.

“Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.”

— Anton Chekhov

Thank you for your assistance!
