No doubt you communicate with colleagues and/ or parents using notes and e-mail, or forms that you have created or that have been created by colleagues or the district. Collect a sample of teacher- or district-developed forms and share them with colleagues from other settings. Work together to identify ways in which the forms could be made more teacher or parent friendly, and modify the forms accordingly. Note that when you do this with classmates from other districts or settings, you are likely to get many more new ideas and time-saving strategies than if you simply exchange with colleagues who share your setting.
