Mid-Cycle Check and Troubleshooting

Buffer meeting. No new content — this is a troubleshooting meeting. The third intentional pause built into the year.

Agenda

Time	Focus
0–10 min	Share early evidence of student understanding.
10–25 min	Identify common student misconceptions.
25–35 min	Adjust instruction before the CFA.
35–43 min	Confirm CFA logistics.
43–45 min	Decide what data each teacher will bring after the CFA.

Why This Meeting Matters

This is the third intentional buffer. It reinforces that PLC work is not just “teach, test, sort.” Teams should adjust instruction while learning is still happening.
