SUMMARY:Integrating Knowledge Building into ELA for Interdisciplinary Teaching *ON SITE* Workshop presented by The Living Literacy Network - 8:30-2:30pm
DESCRIPTION:Knowledge building is essential for strong reading comprehension; it provides the foundation students need to understand\, analyze\, and engage with texts deeply. When readers bring background knowledge to texts\, they can make connections\, infer meaning\, and grasp complex ideas more easily. In this workshop\, teachers will learn how taking a knowledge-rich approach to reading helps students develop vocabulary\, recognize themes\, and think critically about what they read. Teachers will learn how to build rich and complex\, multi-media text sets that support conceptual knowledge and transfer that they can integrate into existing curriculum and units as well as build bridges between content area instruction and literacy instruction. Audience: K-12 Educators Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1-1/2 Consortium seats.If district pays\, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1S43PKF8BLyq0B28NfjCaKfYsfsOWHLEb/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5271110

SUMMARY:Taking the Challenge out of Conversations: 4 Steps to Communicating Without Judgment or Blame VIRTUAL Workshop presented by Joan Fretz - 9-12pm
DESCRIPTION:Whether we’re interacting with colleagues\, supervisors\, students\, caregivers\, or our own family members\, school administrators and staff often find themselves in a challenging conversation. When people feel judged\, we may lose the opportunity to resolve the issue at the lowest level and worse\, damage our relationship with them. While you are in charge of the words you choose and how they are delivered\, it is always the receiver who gives the meaning to your message. In this workshop\, we will explore ways to listen to others without judgment or blame and then express our own feelings and needs. The skill involves linking our feelings to our needs\, instead of blaming someone else for causing them\, and helping others to do the same. Based on the work of Marshall Rosenberg (Nonviolent Communication) and Oren Sofer (Mindful Communication)\, this simple process provides a consistent way for all staff to develop respectful and trusting relationships. Developing safe and healthy schools begins with how we message each other. Strategies for using this approach will be practiced and discussed. Suggestions for encouraging buy-in from all staff will be included. Eligible for 3 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1/2 Consortium seat. If district pays\, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ad5nW40Dl4XuWiFQdqn9WK9vZY12Mv6K/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5135850

SUMMARY:Student Resilience: 9 Resiliency Factors Your School Can Influence VIRTUAL Workshop presented by Joan Fretz - 9-12pm

SUMMARY:Preventing the Meltdown Understanding Environmental Factors Affecting Student Behavior *IN PERSON* presented by Michelle Levy - 8:30-2:30pm
DESCRIPTION:A common mistake made by schools is to assume that problematic student behaviors exist primarily within in the child and underestimate the degree to which external environmental factors impact student academic and behavioral performance. The fields of education and human behavior have long recognized the complex nature of student behavior and its relationship to the child’s learning environment Understanding this relationship and the presence of these factors helps educators and clinicians become more effective in their analysis and development of strategies to respond to behaviors which negatively impact student success. By examining the environment\, staff can use this knowledge to manipulate and alter the conditions which serve as triggers to the challenging behaviors thereby improving the learning environment for struggling learners and improving a positive classroom environment for all. Audience: Administrators\, clinicians\, support staff\, teachers Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 Consortium seat. If district pays\, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mjdzTjOfjmbBWtoPPGKR4mwJkEB1IoW_/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5133354
