  • As soon as 15 visitors walk in a room where teachers are planning, of course, conversation among the teachers stops. It’s hard to see the dynamics that truly emerge among a team and the safety and belonging and critical conversations that happen on teams. Some of the deep work that teams do is hard to see in person. I love the way that the Virtual Site Visit allows us to be in the room with educator teams while they are planning and talking. It’s an amazing peek behind the curtain that is difficult to get in person.

  • Being a first-year teacher in this specific team-based model, I don’t think there are any adjectives to describe the amount of gratefulness that I have just because I get to work with so many different people that give me so much feedback on a daily basis. I believe that I am growing 10 times more than I would in a regular traditional classroom because I get to see so many different perspectives and so many different opinions throughout my regular day.
