for example they may review a
day’s work mentally, keep a journal,
meet regularly with a mentor or
with colleagues, or assess a
videotaped recording of their
teaching.

goal:
1. What do I want to change about my
practice that will effectively impact
student learning?

objective? 8

with Principal attaining PG goal

Sample Goal for Professional
Growth
Any content area –
Area of focus/ growth need: formative assessment
During this school year, I want to embed formative
assessment practices in my daily instruction. I will study
Classroom Assessment for Student Learning, by Rick
Stiggins, with my PLC team and begin to implement Keys
to Quality Assessments. Indicators of success will
include: lesson/unit plans with CASL elements
(formative assessment cycle, learning targets, students
monitoring their own learning); observational data;
reflections after implementation; student data review
and future instruction plans devised during PLC
meetings.
11
Implement PGP and Action Plan

• Action plan must be consistently


implemented as agreed upon
during the collaboration between
principal and teacher.
• Teacher reflects on each phase of
implementation making
adjustments and revisions as
needed.

12
Regularly Reflect on PGP Progress

As the teacher reviews, analyzes and


reflects upon student work samples, test
data and naturally occurring data
generated in teaching and learning,
she/he monitors his/her progress towards
goal(s) and determining their goal status
