Heidi+Hayes-Jacobs+Presentation

Through the anecdotal feedback I have received, it appears that Heidi Hayes-Jacobs made quite an impression on our staff members. I would love to hear your thoughts on some (or all) of the following questions:

1. Heidi raised several points regarding mapping styles and techniques--e.g., the components of an effective maps; the BIG IDEA; the "Master Class;" etc. Of the suggestions she made, which do you think will be most readily accepted by our teachers? Which do you think will require further explanation/exploration?

2. Which of her topics/suggestions resonated the most with you or your PLT colleagues?

3. What immediate steps have you taken--or plan to take--that are a result of Heidi's presentation?

If you have not already done so, please check out [|www.curriculum21.com] for technical assistance on a variety of topics. The "Learning Commons" seems like a useful social network for educators.
