Evidence Practices in Classroom Management 2-Day Workshop *IN PERSON* presented by Michelle Levy - 8:30-2:30pm
2025-11-20 08:30 - 2025-12-17 14:30 | JEA Alternative School, 31 Lee Ave, Wheatley Heights, NY, 11798-1837, United States
The effective management of a classroom begins with establishing a positive, proactive and preventive learning environment that fosters learning for all students and minimizes disruptions. Effective classroom managers build strong relationships with students, communicate effectively, and adapt their strategies to meet individual needs. Participants will learn eight research based strategies that increase instructional time, minimize problematic behavior and increase student engagement thereby setting students up for academic, social and behavioral success. These practices include: -understanding student behavior, -providing quality instruction, -teaching rules, -expectations, -routines and procedures, -practicing precorrection, -active supervision and -implementing strategies for both positive and negative responses. Eligible for 12 hours CTLE credit. Can use 2 Consortium seats. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.

Hands-On with Required NYSSLS Physics Labs: Build, Explore, and Prepare for Implementation of Investigations 2-Day IN PERSON Workshop - Presented by Richard Slesinski-8:30-2:30pm
2025-12-02 08:30 - 2025-12-09 14:30 | JEA Alternative School, 31 Lee Ave, Wheatley Heights, NY, 11798-1837, United States
With the implementation of the New York State Science Learning Standards (NYSSLS) approaching, physics educators must prepare to meet new expectations for student investigation and lab-based performance tasks. This two-part workshop series is designed to empower high school physics teachers to confidently teach the three new required NYSSLS physics labs by experiencing them firsthand-as their students would-and by building the physical lab setups needed for effective implementation in their classrooms.By the end of this workshop series, participants will: -Construct the necessary props and equipment for the three new required NYSSLS physics labs.-Participate in each of the three new labs as students to deepen their understanding of the student experience. -Analyze the three labs through the lens of the NYSSLS three dimensions: -Science and Engineering Practices (SEPs), -Crosscutting Concepts (CCCs), and -Disciplinary Core Ideas (DCIs).Eligible for 12 hours CTLE credit. Can use 2 Consortium seats. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.
