Join like-minded literacy professionals for a three-part professional development series as we explore hot topics in the world of education and literacy! This 3 Part Series will focus on building strong literacy practices. Each session will explore key strategies to support reading and writing in the classroom. We’ll cover topics like effective instruction, student engagement, assessment, and using data to guide teaching.
This 3-Part interactive workshop dives into Doug Lemov’s Teach Like a Champion 3.0, offering educators an opportunity to explore and apply techniques that will help you with student engagement, learning outcomes, and classroom management.
We will participate in hands-on activities, enjoy discussions, and watch videos that will teach you strategies for checking understanding, motivating students, raising expectations, and creating classrooms where students write regularly.
This workshop series is ideal for teachers eager to refine their craft and champion positive, productive learning environments. Veteran teachers will be reminded of strategies that have worked for them in the past and newer educators will build a toolbox of classroom skills that will serve them well their entire careers.
Participants will receive a complimentary copy of Teach Like a Champion 3.0 with their registration.
Created and piloted by a former school psychologist in collaboration with a former teacher, the Family-School Partnership is a family-based learning program run by four school staff to support the social and emotional development of children through engaging in conversations around topics such as connect & redirect, co-regulation, and play. The goal of the program is to promote continuity of strategies across home and school settings. Many teachers have attended workshops aligned with the No-Drama Discipline and 1-2-3 RESET principles, which will be highlighted in this partnership. The partnership includes three pre-planned evenings for school staff and interested families to engage in, along with a Google Drive to access all the needed materials. An outline of an evening includes:
-
- Community Builder
- Family Activity
- Family Meal
- Adult Learning Session & Child Play Session
- Adult & Child Connection Time
- Closure
While four school staff members will be implementing the program, only two must attend this training (but all four are welcome).
