2-Day Workshops

Learn how to prepare and develop meaningful mathematics instruction and assessment processes with the rigor and coherence expected by all states.

This workshop is focused on the practices and processes that will modernize grading and reporting systems to be more aligned to our standards-based instructional paradigm.

Deepen your understanding of formative and summative assessments, and learn how to design assessments that guide instruction, involve students, and communicate learning.

Build a solid foundation of content knowledge for teaching mathematics and ultimately to extend that knowledge to students through the implementation of the TQE Process (from the Making Sense of Mathematics for Teaching series, led by Dixon, Nolan, & Adams, et al., 2016).

Recognize the power that educator mindset has on student performance and develop a solid plan for unlocking the potential of every learner.

This two-day workshop will highlight what leaders and teams do to improve their professional practice in an effort to help more students learn at higher levels.

As states adopt more rigorous academic standards, schools must determine how to ensure all students—including English learners, children with special needs, children from poverty, and children facing trauma—learn at the highest levels. During this hands-on training, general and special educators will discover how to utilize PLC best practices to develop collaborative partnerships, close achievement gaps, and maximize learning for all.

In this reflective and inspirational 2-day workshop, Timothy D. Kanold draws from the wisdom of his newest book HEART! Fully Forming Your Professional Life as a Teacher and Leader to offer research, insights, and tools from thought leaders inside and outside the profession, such as Emma Seppala, Tom Rath, and Adam Grant. He also includes the wisdom of educational thought leaders Becky DuFour, Rick DuFour, Aaron Hansen, Luis Cruz, and many of his colleagues.

The most common challenge for schools is how to transition from a culture of compliance to a culture of commitment. How to move from “doing” to “becoming”; from “my kids” to “our kids.”
