College and Career Readiness for Special Needs Students
Emma Foley, Senior Curriculum Specialist
Tuesday, March 7, 2023 | 10:15am – 11:10am EST
Room 2006
As special education teachers, we are equally as responsible as our general education colleagues for addressing college and career readiness in our students. Lessons learned in grades K-12 will pave the way for our students, and we should strive to enable our students to show good decision-making skills to transition smoothly to life after graduation. In this session, I will share strategies for helping students with special needs, and their parents, to identify a path that will lead to greater success in high school and beyond!
21st Century Skills
Robert Abraham, Professional Development Account Manager
Tuesday, March 7, 2023 | 11:20am – 12:15pm EST
Room 2011
We are constantly talking about teaching skills that go beyond just literacy and numeracy, but what does that look like? In this session, we will explore concrete examples of critical thinking, communication, problem-solving, and collaboration at each grade level.
Designing School Notices with Canva
Emma Foley, Senior Curriculum Specialist
Tuesday, March 7, 2023 | 11:20am – 12:15pm EST
Room 2006
Classroom or school-wide newsletters shouldn’t be boring. Join us for this course to explore how you can keep parents, students, and staff up to date by using creative school newsletter templates available in Canva. With just a few clicks, we will dive into the steps for personalizing and publishing!
SEL Check-ins with Google
Robert Abraham, Professional Development Account Manager
Tuesday, March 7, 2023 | 12:30pm – 1:25pm EST
Room 2011
Education has always focused on the core subject areas, but there is an important need for more of a focus on social-emotional learning in the classroom. Students’ ability to learn well depends not just on instruction, but also on factors such as the school environment, interaction with peers, and relationships with teachers. This session will explore SEL concepts as well as some easy check-ins and classroom activities.
Civics Projects to Empower Older Students
Emma Foley, Senior Curriculum Specialist
Tuesday, March 7, 2023 | 12:30pm – 1:25pm EST
Room 2006
As educators, we are constantly considering our students’ interests when lesson planning, but sometimes struggle to show students how the lesson activities can support them in their adult lives post-graduation. A project-based approach to civics may be the answer when working with older students. In this session, I will share engaging activities that you can do with your older students to get them excited about democracy, elections, civics, and so much more!
Staying Organized as a Tech Coach
Cori Frede, Professional Development and Field Product Specialist
Tuesday, March 7, 2023 | 1:35pm – 2:30pm EST
Room 2046
Staying organized is vital for a successful tech coach, but sometimes you work so hard to help your teachers, you yourself get a little disheveled. Come learn techniques to stay digitally organized and simplify communication with your teachers.
