20. The Maker Classroom - Unplugged presented by Tom Diener

Program: Model Schools

Dates: 4/22/2020

The maker movement is taking K-12 education by storm and many educators are anxious to jump on board. Unfortunately, many educators are convinced that in order to have a "real" makerspace one needs a 3D printer, power tools, and robotics kits. Getting to the heart of the maker movement, teachers can provide students with the same learning opportunities through no-tech makerspaces. This workshop will feature resources and activities developed by Arvind Gupta. Mr.Gupta has developed simple yet stunning plans for turning trash into seriously entertaining, well-designed toys that kids can build themselves -- while learning basic principles of science and design. These toys from trash projects have the potential to demystify science, math, technology, and engineering. Flyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/13daBqz_Nq2npqjAbps-KYxs6nRhGyuHk/view?usp=sharing

45. Making Grammar Stick - Embedding Grammar into our Everyday Practice Grades K-5 presented by Debra Wachtler

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 5/6/2020

One thing that all teachers, regardless of grade, content, or experience, can agree on is that students struggle with grammar. While we all know that grammar is being taught, for some reason it isn't transferring into our students' writing. Not to mention the fact that most students don't know when to use grammar correctly or how to use it powerfully. Using Jeff Anderson's Everyday Editing as a guide, Debra Wachtler will share a philosophy she has crafted to help students both understand and enjoy grammar. Discussions will include:  The research behind the most effective grammar instruction  Discussion of the NYS Next Generation Language Standards for grades K-1  Ways to incorporate grammar skills into everyday classroom practice Participants will leave with strategies to start teaching "grammar that sticks" in their own classrooms with little prep and lots of excitement.

Working mathematically encompasses much more than employing specific topic facts, recalling precise definitions, and applying techniques/algorithms to solve problems in order to satisfy the goal of obtaining the correct answer. This workshop will provide a hands-on approach to focus on problems by looking at them from unexpected perspectives. We will learn and practice strategies for:  Getting an entry point into a problem,  Attacking the problem in a systematic and orderly fashion, and  Reflecting on and extending the accomplished work to other generalized scenarios. The aims of the workshop are:  Emphasis on "non-traditional" problems, which foster the skill of "thlnking outside the box", with particular concentration on the all-important mathematical aspect of PATTERNS, and the relationship of those patterns to ideas previously learned, as well as the ideas yet to come in future math courses.  Particular emphasis on 'decomposing' a problem which initially appears difficult and cumbersome, by analyzing the nuances of a simpler, yet related problem.  Develop students' mathematical thinking skills so that they can tackle unfamiliar problems with confidence.  Help students experience the joy in asking and answering their own questions, and orient the students to appreciate the ways in which actual professional mathematicians work.

72. Tiered Instruction for ELLs and More Advanced Learners: A Deep Dive Into Managing the Mixed-ability Classroom presented by Judy Dodge

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 5/18/2020

"Fair isn't equal; fair is getting what you need." Daily, teachers face the challenge of meeting the needs of their grade-level students, while, at the same time, addressing the needs of ELLs, students with disabilities, and more advanced students who sit in the same classroom. In this workshop, explore how "tiered" activities in your classroom can help a single teacher manage a multi-leveled classroom in an era of state standards. Discover this most nuanced and advanced strategy for differentiating instruction. Acquire the skill to enable you to meet this frustrating challenge. Join national instructional expert, Judy Dodge, in this interactive seminar as she demonstrates and guides participants to "tier" writing tasks and projects to address variance in learner readiness. Learn how to meet these diverse learners where they are, not where we'd like them to be. Learn to provide a "just right" challenge for all levels of learners without creating three different lessons. **Attendees should bring several writing tasks and/or projects that have been or will be assigned to the whole class.

Dates: 5/19/2020

Do you:  have students who struggle with fractions, decimals, and percents?  Students who do not have command of basic facts or operations with whole numbers?  Students who have trouble with ratios, unit rates, and word problems? If you do, join Greg Tang for his grade 5-9 workshop Fractions, Ratios & Proportional Thinking. Greg will share his "less is more" approach to teaching key skills, including his progression of concrete, pictorial, and abstract models (C-P-A) that gives kids a deeper, more connected understanding of these critical concepts. Proportional thinking is the heart of middle school math and the skill we need to help students with most.  Can multiplication and division be taught as proportional thinking?  Can visual models help kids think proportionally about fractions, decimals, ratios, and unit rates?  Can students learn to use proportional reasoning to make sense of linear equations and solve challenging word problems? Join Greg and learn firsthand how to use tape diagrams, double-sided number lines, tree diagrams, and before/after tables to give students the foundational understanding they need. We will make sense of middle school math and help students think multiplicatively, reason proportionally, and solve problems algebraically!

76. They Still Can't Spell? Strategies for Remediating Spelling Problems at the Middle and High School Levels Grades 4-12 presented by Amy Benjamin

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 5/19/2020

Yes, spelling does count. Proper spelling conveys the "look of literacy" while poor spelling diminishes the writer's credibility and causes the reader to pay attention to mistakes rather than meaning. Many teachers in the intermediate and secondary grades don't know how to incorporate and individualize effective spelling lessons. Come and learn a variety of ways to use mini-lessons, etymology, games and puzzles, metacognition, classroom visuals, mnemonic devices, word sorts, morphology charting, air writing, and - yes, spelling rules to make students more confident and competent writers and readers.
