DESCRIPTION:This two-day workshop will provide participants with an in-depth opportunity to explore the three required Chemistry Investigations developed to align with the New York State Science Learning Standards (NYSSLS). These performance tasks offer authentic\, hands-on scientific and engineering experiences that allow students to demonstrate their understanding chemistry concepts and scientific practices in a real-world context.Chemistry teachers and science administrators will deepen their understanding of the NYSSLS and the expectations for three-dimensional student learning. Participants will learn how these investigations are designed to prepare students for the type of scientific reasoning and application they will encounter on the Physical Setting: Chemistry Regents examination.Workshop highlights include:-A demonstration of how each investigation aligns with NYSSLS performance expectations and dimensions of learning-Discussion on how the investigations function as assessments of student learning-Hands-on experience with the Chemistry Investigations to model classroom implementation-Collaboration time to develop strategies for successful integration into existing curriculaPlease Note:-Participants must bring paper copies of each Chemistry Investigation’s documents. These will not be provided at the workshop. -Participants should plan to attend both days to have the opportunity to explore all three investigations.-Participants should bring a fully charged laptop\, iPad\, or tablet to download resources and access digital tools during the session.Eligible for 12 hours CTLE credit.

SUMMARY:THE SCIENCE OF READING FOR MULTILINGUAL LEARNERS VIRTUAL TOOLKIT BRIEF #2: TEACHING READING IN MULTILINGUAL CLASSROOMS: MOVING BEYOND A DEFICIT PERSPECTIVE - 8:30-2:30pm
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, we will spend the first part of the day unpacking the full article of the brief to understand the data and research presented while absorbing the classroom examples\, reviewing the conclusion and recommendations\, as well as the references and resources so we can work together to reflect and apply the revised instructional practices during the second part of the day. Participants will work throughout this day long workshop to link practical classroom resources\, engage in example teaching and learning activities\, and focus on planning and preparation to implement this brief with the following outcomes:\nHow to build upon early exposure to language\, songs and stories in the home\nUnderstand the concept of dynamic assessments and how to use family input to better understand a student’s true capabilities\nBuild family partnerships by gathering insights about language use\, literacy practices and daily life to affirm student identities and experiences\nUse home languages to promote equity engagement and academic achievement for all\nPLEASE VIEW FLYER FOR FULL DESCRIPTION:\nhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1qL6vNTuirBfjzwOuBKufr0DRCT-JRINa/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5284956
