Group Topic Focus Plan

Anchored on the 3 Big Ideas as a PLC (Focusing on learning, collaboration and student outcomes), this topic plan guides MTS teachers on their journey to look more deeply at the practices in the classrooms by thinking through the teaching processes, areas and actions in the STP as well as the active learning process for using of technology in the classrooms. As reflective practitioners, teachers reflect actively on their lessons to plan next steps in the classrooms. [W1: TFP 1, W5: Reflection 1 + W6: TFP 2, W10: Reflection 2)
