26. Secondary Science of Reading: Getting Teens to Read, Think, and Engage Gr 6-12 IN PERSON facilitated by The Living Literacy Network-8:30-2:30pm

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 10/14/2026

The Science of Reading (SOR) movement has transformed early literacy but for educators in grades 6-12, a critical question remains: Why do students still struggle to read and make sense of texts across the disciplines? Adolescent literacy demands a more dynamic architecture. While traditional SOR focuses on word recognition and language comprehension alone, the Science of Secondary Reading (SOSR) requires that students evolve from being passive receivers of information to readers who construct meaning critically. The Active View of Reading framework by Nell Duke and Kelly Cartwright accounts for the "hidden" drivers of adolescent success: motivation and engagement, executive function, and metacognition, allowing students to tackle more complex texts as advanced readers and writers. Furthermore, this framework also takes into consideration text type, task, and sociocultural context as well as the role of Disciplinary Literacy (reading and writing like experts in a field) and recognizes the importance of culturally responsive and relevant instruction. This SOSR workshop is specifically designed for middle and high school teachers, instructional coaches, and leaders across disciplines; we've chosen the aspects of the Active View of Reading, Disciplinary Literacy, and Critical Literacy that connect most to teen reading struggles, the development of the teenage brain, and teachers' issues with time, topic coverage, task sophistication and the added pressure of high-stakes tests. Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 10/22/2026

What if your students were doing more of the thinking than you are? In this hands-on workshop, we'll explore how to redesign your STEM classroom so that students are active participants in their own learning, not passive recipients of yours. Discovery-based, student-centered instruction is about doing the work before students walk through the door so the magic can happen once they do. The payoff: when students have the structures and agency to drive their own learning, you're not adding to your workload - you're reducing it. Less reteaching. More engagement. Less carrying the cognitive load for the entire room. We'll dig into how your warm-up and exit ticket can become engines for student discovery, why letting students wrestle with content before mastering it is a feature rather than a flaw, and how thin slicing and scaffolding let you guide students forward without giving the learning away. In this workshop, you will: -Explore classroom structures that support discovery-based learning -Learn how to use warm-ups and exit tickets to promote student inquiry -Develop your approach to scaffolding and thin slicing -Walk away with an enhanced or reimagined lesson of your own Come prepared: Bring a lesson or topic you want to make more student-centered.

67. Mastering the NYS ELA Writing Demands: Strategies for Grades 3-5 IN PERSON facilitated by Deborah Linscott-Feinstein - 8:30-2:30pm

Program: Professional Development

Audience: administrators, literacy coaches, reading teachers, grades 3-5 ENL, general and special education teachers whose students are reading approximately on these levels.

Dates: 10/28/2026

Audience: administrators, literacy coaches, reading teachers, grades 3-5 ENL, general and special education teachers whose students are reading approximately on these levels. Equip your 3rd, 4th, and 5th-grade students with the tools they need to confidently tackle the writing portions of the NYS ELA assessment! This dynamic seminar is specifically tailored to the foundational writing tasks young learners face, focusing on how to successfully navigate both 2-credit short responses and the 4-credit extended responses introduced in grades 4 and 5. The Writing Revolution paragraph scaffolding will be utilized, and several models for compare and contrast essays will be presented. -Participants will explore highly effective, brain-friendly strategies to simplify test writing. We will unpack exactly what the 2-credit constructed-response rubric demands: a valid inference-like making a claim from their head-supported by two concrete details directly from the text. You will learn how to teach students the "get in, and get out!" method: writing short and sweet complete sentences without wasting time restating the question, using transitions, or over-explaining evidence. -We will also share proven formulas for tackling tricky "how" and "why" questions, training students to purposefully use words like "by" and "because" to frame their thoughts, and sort details and inferences within a game format. -Furthermore, for upper elementary teachers, we will delve into the expectations of 4-credit extended-response questions, showing you how to guide students in communicating a clear, coherent analysis of the texts. Graphic organizers for the compare and contrast essay will be explored. -Simultaneously, third grade teachers will work on continued grade-appropriate practice activities with short response questions in a small group. Third grade teachers will also work on synthesizing how to elaborate on kernel sentences into short response format.

90. Re-childing - A Playshop for the Educators IN PERSON facilitated by Rev Laura Tria - 8:30-2:30pm

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 11/4/2026

The word "adulting” often brings to mind responsibility, structure, and the many skills we've practiced since childhood-skills first modeled by our earliest educators: parents, teachers, counselors, and elders. We learned how to walk and speak, how to sit properly at a table, how to follow directions, and how to succeed within systems. We learned to read, write, remember, and perform. We moved from grade to grade, meeting expectations, passing tests, and preparing for the moment we would step fully into adulthood. And now-you are the educator. You hold space for learning. You guide, support, and shape others. You manage responsibilities that extend far beyond the classroom. And somewhere along the way, many educators quietly ask:
• Why am I so stressed?
• Where did the wonder go?
• When did play become something extra, instead of essential?
• What happened to the joy, the curiosity, the music? This playshop is an invitation. Not to abandon the wisdom and responsibility that adulthood requires-but to reclaim and reintegrate the childlike qualities that make great educators truly transformative: curiosity, imagination, presence, and joy. Re-Childing is about remembering that play is not separate from learning-it is learning. It's about reconnecting with the part of yourself that once explored freely, created boldly, and experienced the world with awe. In this interactive playshop, educators will:
• Reawaken imagination through guided creative experiences
• Reconnect with joy, curiosity, and embodied learning
• Explore playful practices that can be brought back into educational spaces
• Restore a sense of wonder-for themselves and those they teach Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 consortium seat. Eligible for Guidance Consortium. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.

Program: Online Professional Development

Dates: 11/6/2026

How can we better understand and support students with autism in today's classrooms? This focused virtual workshop provides a practical overview of Autism Spectrum Disorder as a neurodevelopmental difference that impacts communication, behavior, sensory processing, and learning. Educators explore the wide variability of ASD and how individual strengths and needs shape student experiences. The workshop emphasizes a shift toward a neurodiversity-informed, support-based approach-where behavior is viewed as communication. Participants explore sensory needs, communication differences, and strategies for understanding behavior as a function. Educators gain classroom-ready tools including visual supports, structured routines, and sensory strategies, and will also explore AAC supports and proactive behavior approaches. The goal is to create learning environments that are predictable, accessible, and responsive. Participants leave with practical strategies to better support regulation, communication, and engagement. Eligible for 3 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1/2 consortium seat. If district pays, district approved must be confirmed prior to start of session.

101. From Vision to Practice: Embedding the Portrait of a Graduate and Habits of Mind into Everyday Instruction IN PERSON facilitated by Nicole Moriarty, Ed.D.-8:30-2:30pm

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 11/6/2026

This highly interactive workshop helps educators move beyond the Portrait of a Graduate as a vision statement and into daily classroom practice. Participants explore how the Portrait provides coherence and purpose across a PreK-12 system, and how the Habits of Mind serve as a visible, teachable framework for developing the skills and dispositions students need for life beyond school. Through collaborative activities and reflection, educators identify ways to intentionally teach, name, and reinforce habits such as persistence, flexible thinking, and listening across content areas. Participants consistently describe this session as engaging and energizing, noting the value of time to think with colleagues and leaving with concrete, immediately applicable shifts in language, routines, and instructional practice. Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 consortium seat. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.
