Planning and implementing a new inquiry unit (D7.5)
Description of expectations for the design and monitoring of a new inquiry unit

(From Implementation A -- Description of field experiences expectations)

[As their third "inquiry experience as teachers"] Participating teachers who are in charge of teaching mathematics (either in mainstream or self-contained classes) are expected to ... create on their own a series of lessons reflecting what they have learned from the project, as a chance to try to incorporate new principles and ``routines" in their own teaching while still benefiting of the support provided by the project staff and the school-based team (to be designed by February and implement by April-May)

For each of [their inquiry experiences as teachers"], the teacher (in collaboration with the LD consultant and/or other members of the school-based team) has the main responsibility to keep the following documentation (essential both for the teacher to evaluate the result of his/her implementation and for the project staff to provide on-going support and feedback):

• written record of initial plan
• written daily accounts of each lesson
• a written reflection on each major "component" of the unit when concluded
• a final written reflection on the experience
• a portfolio for each LD student as well as a few regular students in the class, containing all the student's written work as well as the record of specific observations throughout the year.
