What is your role within your team?
To facilitate a plan to bring polar science into other classrooms

What professional growth goals do you and your team members hope to reach through this partnership?
1. Develop professional and personal relationaships that can be used to help further our careers and quality of teaching 2. Develop lessons into a cohesive unit on Antarctica

How will you and your team reflect on these goals and on learning and classroom practice (e.g., pedagogy, the use of technology, content, the process of science)?
1. Discuss how the individual lessons worked in the classroom in order to make revisions for future use. 2. Discuss & review state education standards to see that the developed lessons meet state standards. 3. Discuss & develop assessment tools for the students so that we know that quality learning took place.

Mentoring Plan (Revised from Orientation)
I plan to facilitate our meetings in order to generate even more interest in the use of technology and Antarctic science. In this second year, we will continue to meet to refine our lessons and respective units. My goal is to go beyond the overview of Antarctic science from last year to developing a deeper interest in the subject. We will work on specific lessons and how to taylor them to our parcticular classes. We will work on scaling the lessons to our grade levels but also refining lessons so they meet our state standards and the interest level of our students.
