"Putting it ALL Together!"

This past Saturday we held the last of our New Mentor Trainings for 2010.  We had a great turn out considering that it's December and Craft Fair and the holiday season.  The training focussed on Mentor Conversations and Formal Observations.  Our mentors learned about the Observation Protocol which consists of three Phases:  Pro Observation Planning, Data Collection, and Post-Observation Reflection Conversation.  They also learned about two different Data Collecting Tools: The Focused Scripting Tool, and the Room Logistics Tool.  A great time was had by all!!!  Mahalo to our committed Mentors who are the heart of the Kahikukala Program!!!!
