A Day in the Life of Schoolwide CFGs
Silva, Peggy
Educational Horizons, v84 n1 p29-34 Fall 2005
In this article, the author talks about the Critical Friends Group, which she and her colleagues at Souhegan High School created. They hold monthly meetings in order to help everyone with their work. Here, she discusses her experiences of CFG, as well as that of her colleagues' experiences and what they had to say about the CFG. Among other things, she talks about surveying their staff every year in order to determine the progress of their CFG work, as well as making mutual investments in each other's practice with the goal of helping students learn.
