Dates: 8/6/2020
Location: ONLINE
Starting Soon

The forthcoming Next Generation Math standards (implementation begins for grades PreK-8th grade begins Fall 2021) requires teachers teach children math with conceptual understanding and NOT rely solely on a procedural algorithms (as did Common Core). This workshop will address ways elementary math is being is being taught and why it is important for students to learn this way. Nancy Lin will also briefly address the vertical progression of mathematics which makes proper foundational learning essential.

While the content of this workshop is primarily K-5, secondary math teachers who have taken this workshop have also found it incredibly eye-opening to learn about the new ways math is being taught in the younger grades.
Quotes from teachers who have taken this workshop in the past:

Great ways to help students become more proficient in math. Great alternatives to traditional algorithms and learning. I will institute much of it immediately and will use when introducing units next year.

I can see the foundation that my students are coming to me with. With knowledge of their background, I can build using similar models

Program: Curriculum & Instruction: Regional PD
Audience: Grades K-2 math teachers, math specialists, math supervisors
Dates: 8/11/2020

This workshop will show you rich math tasks you can include as part of your grades K-2 curriculum.

Dates: 8/12/2020
Location: ONLINE

In this course, you will gain new understandings of families living in poverty and the concrete steps that high-poverty, high-performing (HP/HP) schools have taken to improve outcomes for all students. You will also have opportunities to read research, case studies, and anecdotal reports of how schools have welcomed students and families living in poverty to transition from wherever they are into high-performing schools. Course resources will guide you through activities to assess your school and create action plans.

One of the critical components of the course is building leadership capacity. Whether you are an administrator or teacher, you will feel empowered to take advantage of opportunities to improve outcomes for students in your school, especially if you have a high percentage of students living in poverty.
This course is based on William Parrett and Kathleen Budge's Framework for Action, which uses gear wheels to represent:
*Spheres of Influence
*Actions
*School Culture As you work through the course, you will see how improvements in any one of the three areas can influence the other two.

Inquiry-based learning is an approach to learning that emphasizes the student's role in the learning process. Rather than the teacher telling students what they need to know, students are encouraged to explore the material, ask questions, and share ideas.

In the Virtual Classroom, work like this could be challenging. During this workshop, we will discuss effective strategies for managing inquiry-based learning during Online or Blended instruction.

Program: Curriculum & Instruction: Regional PD
Audience: all teachers and school administrators
Dates: 8/14/2020
Location: Online
New

Have teachers in your school been given the opportunity to have honest conversations about race, racism, implicit bias, white privilege, and schooling?

This is a pivotal time in history, one where all teachers and educational leaders have an imperative to address issues, like the incident with George Floyd, that have taken place and continue to take place today. We must first take the step to engage in uncomfortable conversations about racism amongst ourselves, so that we, in-turn, can consider how implicit bias may be affecting the manner in which we educate students. This session will provide a platform for educators & school leaders to engage in honest conversation about race, racism, implicit bias, white privilege, & schooling.

We will frame each discussion around provocative pieces of media - ex: we will read text & discuss, watch media clips & discuss.

The following pre-reading is required in advance of our Zoom session together:
Read Pedagogy of the Oppressed by Paulo Freire, Preface & Chapter 1.

Preface -
http://www.historyisaweapon.com/defcon2/pedagogy/pedagogypreface.html

Chapter 1 -
http://faculty.poly.edu/~jbain/socphil/texts/15.Freire.pdf

PLEASE NOTE- ZOOM link will be emailed the morning of the session. Your Zoom registration must match your name & email addr as your MLP account in order to receive CTLE credit.
District Administrators, if there is any PD that every teacher in your school should take, it is this one. We have an obligation to address these issues. It is not only an obligation to every student that sits in our classrooms, but an obligation to our entire school community.

This three day (15-hour) virtual workshop provides participants with an overview of the Wilson Reading System® (WRS) curriculum and serves as the prerequisite for WRS Level I Certification. This course is delivered over three consecutive days and examines reading research and the five areas of reading in relation to students in grade two and above with persistent phonological coding deficits.

Participants learn about dyslexia and language-based learning disabilities, appropriate student identification and placement, program implementation, progress monitoring, scheduling, and creating a successful learning environment. Principles of language structure and how to teach language with direct, multi-sensory methods are demonstrated and practiced during the workshop. Participants explore the standard 10-part Wilson Lesson Plan and practice planning and delivering a lesson while receiving modeling and feedback from a credentialed Wilson Trainer during the workshop.

Upon completion of the workshop, participants will be able to:

• Define dyslexia, and describe common characteristics.

• Explain the process of identifying appropriate students and placing them in the Wilson Reading System.

• Demonstrate a solid understanding of WRS principles of instruction: explicit, sequential, cumulative, and diagnostic multi-sensory instruction.

• Identify the lesson components for Block 1 (Decoding/Word Study), Block 2 (Encoding/Spelling), and Block 3 (Listening & Reading Comprehension) of the WRS Lesson Plan.

• Prepare a 10-part WRS Lesson plan.

Program: Curriculum & Instruction: Regional PD
Dates: 10/1/2020 to 10/20/2020
Location: LL B

Over the last ten years, curriculum has been redefined to include standards-based units of study. During this three-day institute, ELA teachers will begin the process of writing a grade level standards-based curriculum. In the spirit of writing units with the end in mind (Understanding by Design).

*Day 1-teachers will write a standards-based assessment for a 2-4 week ELA literature based unit.

*Day 2-teachers will have developed lessons for that unit that include formative assessments to inform instruction.

*Day 3-teachers will have minimally an outline of a complete standards-based unit, and ideally a complete unit with a mid-unit assessment, formative assessments, protocols that promote collaboration and writing.

These three days will use the new Guide for Aligning Local Curricula to the Next Generation ELA Learning Standards recently published by the State. It is recommended that districts send a team or teams of grade level teachers who can collaborate on the unit that will become part of the grade level curriculum.

There will be an expectation, that on day 1, participants will bring a full-length text that they would like to include in the curriculum. The text should be challenging and have multiple interpretations. In addition, they will receive instruction prior to the first meeting on how to select a few possible short companion texts for the unit. This promises to be a fulfilling and exciting method for writing curriculum and for improving student engagement and learning during the school year.
