Tackling inter-rater reliability, tough conversations, and instructional gaps

This one day training will prepare districts for fall screening in AIMSweb Plus. The day will focus on basic site navigation, access to resources, administration of the one-on-one measures (Tests of Early Literacy/Numeracy and the oral reading), and management of the online assessments for grades 2-8. Anyone who will support screening for K-1 should plan to attend the full day. Those only involved in screening at grades 2-8 will only need to attend for the morning. Morning Focus 8:30-11:15 (approx.): Basic site navigation (all grades), administration of the Oral Reading Fluency Measure (grades 1-8), and management of the online assessment (grades 2-8). Afternoon Focus 11:30-3:30: Administration of the Tests of Early Literacy and Numeracy (grades K-1).

This one day professional development for K-6 Science teachers will focus on the new New York State Science Learning Standards that took effect in July 2017. During the session teachers will develop a general understanding of the new science standards related to current research on science learning, required instructional shifts, and the proposed timeline for implementation. Teachers will also be introduced to the Smithsonian Science Curriculum Materials Program that OCM BOCES offers and gain access to their districts purchased material through Carolina Science Online. This will better prepare teachers to attend their unit training and implement the Smithsonian Curriculum. Teachers are encouraged to bring their own devices to access digital materials.

This group is for people who have been designated by their district to take a leadership role in math. It is recommended that districts send a team to the Math Leadership meetings that includes teacher leaders (elementary, middle and high school teachers) as well as building and district leaders. This group serves to support the development of district and regional capacity related to the Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards. This includes sharing and discussing up-to-date information related to the changes in the standards and other relevant information from the State Education Department. Additionally, the goal of this group is to develop collaboration between districts in the region to support high-quality K-12 mathematics education and to support continuous improvement in mathematics learning and instruction. The expectation for participating in this group is:

1. Attending all three meetings during the year. We will have a focus of study for the year that will build on our previous work.

2. Being prepared for the meeting by completing any personal learning required by the facilitator of this group.

3. Being responsible for working with your team to bring the learning from the meeting back to your district.

4. Being designated or gaining approval by your district to participate in this group.

The formal meeting will occur in the morning. However, your district may ask your team to use the afternoon to develop a plan for implementing the learning from the meeting in your district. If your district asks this of you the meeting space will be available in the afternoon for use by those who wish to stay and work.

Students learn best from lessons that connect with their lives and interests. You'll learn how to design appropriately challenging, active and interactive lessons that deepen student learning.

Effective Management: Strategies for Challenging Behaviors. A positive, respectful approach to discipline can transform your classroom. Create a positive climate for learning and discover proactive approaches to misbehavior that will help to keep the focus on learning.

This interactive, highly practical 27-hour course has a prerequisite and is great for all educators in a school building (Classroom Teachers, Special Area and Special Ed Teachers, TAs, Building Principals and other administrators and support staff) who have attended the Responsive Classroom Course and have been applying the Responsive Classroom practices in their settings in the school. OCM BOCES is a public entity duly licensed by Center for Responsive Schools, Inc., to conduct The Responsive Classroom® courses.

As a result of this workshop, teachers will:

• Engaging Academics:

• Integrating academics into your Morning Meetings

• Promoting autonomy by drawing on students' strengths and interests

• Using open-ended questions to spark curiosity, understanding, and reflection

• Removing barriers to student engagement

• Effective Management:

• Understanding why students misbehave and how to set them up for success

• Learning when and how to effectively use Logical Consequences
