I consult with colleagues
for help to build my
personal skills to
address student learning
needs and resources as
well as my own.
Typically, those with
greater experience in
education provide me
with weblinks, reference
books, and other
contacts, in addition to
advice.
Recently, a colleague,
experienced in fifth
grade math referred a
small group of us fourth
grade teachers to a math
reference book that she
highly values and still
uses. This is a fitting
example of collaboration
as she was responding to
our collective expression
of desiring additional
resources to prepare
ourselves for teaching
certain math concepts.
