    31. Safe Zone Training for Educators

    Program: Office of School Improvement - CTLE Approved Sponsor

    Audience: Classroom teachers, School leaders, GSA Advisors, School Counselors, Social Workers, School Psychologists, School Nurses

    Dates: 10/22/2024

    Have you ever wished you had a safe, non-judgmental space to ask questions about LGBTQIA+ individuals and identity? Are you confused by the differences between sex, gender expression, gender identity and orientation? Have you ever wondered what the letters in the LGBTQIA+ initialism mean? Would you like strategies for creating more welcoming and affirming learning spaces for LGBTQIA+ students, colleagues, and families? This professional learning opportunity provides the tools you need! While progress is slowly being made to create more welcoming and affirming learning spaces there is still much to be done. For LGBTQIA+ students, colleagues, and families the school environment can pose numerous threats and obstacles. Below are some eye-opening statistics from GLSEN's (Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network) 2021 New York State School Climate Report: 90% of LGBTQIA+ students heard anti-LGBTQIA+ remarks/slurs; only 25% of LGBTQIA+ students were taught positive representations of LGBTQIA+ people, history or events; 53% of LGBTQIA+ students heard staff make homophobic remarks and 69% heard negative remarks about someone's gender expression from staff. Anti-LGBTQIA discrimination means that LGBTQIA+ students miss more school, have lower GPAs, and lower self-esteem. This dynamic, interactive professional learning session focuses on building your ally skills, developing welcoming and affirming learning spaces through the use of inclusive and respectful language, terminology, pronouns and discourse, assessing the physical environment for inclusivity, creating inclusive learning opportunities, and knowing where to go for resources and support. Attending this workshop is a proactive step towards creating welcoming and affirming learning spaces. Program participants will receive a Safe Zone sticker and course materials.

    The bad news is that the rules have changed. The exciting news is that our students will get to re-write the rules. For years, students have been told about a corporate ladder. But our students won't have a ladder. They'll need to navigate a maze instead."

    Program: Office of School Improvement - CTLE Approved Sponsor

    Audience: Elementary educators

    Dates: 10/30/2024

    Play is at the core of our creativity, innovation, and socialization. It's the vehicle for how we learn to cooperate and co-create. It provides opportunities to model and practice self-regulation and interpersonal sensitivity. Through play, kids are able to develop their social and emotional skills by building their sense of identity and self-esteem; learning helpful strategies for navigating peer conflict, solving problems, fostering relationships, and managing their own emotions; becoming more self-aware; developing fostering empathy and belonging (being seen, heard, and valued); and using self-control. Join me for a fun-filled day focused on incorporating play in meaningful ways that help students not only build those SEL skills but get to know one another better, while creating a positive climate in which to learn and grow.

This presentation offers a brief look into the research supporting this approach and highlights how it can impact academic success in content-area classes. The main focus of this session is application through a combination of engaging strategies and practical techniques. Participants will gain valuable insights and apply instructional tools that integrate word reading and word meaning to unlock the full potential of every reader.

    This integrative approach to instruction eliminates a siloed approach to literacy instruction. This presentation briefly delves into the research supporting this approach and highlights how it can impact academic success in content-area classes by engaging in direct, explicit, instructional routines; discussion and discourse; and through writing. Through a combination of engaging strategies and practical techniques participants will gain valuable insights and leave the session with instructional tools to apply these comprehensive literacy practices to their own classroom practice, to unlock the full potential of every reader.
