During Delivering Differentiated Instruction, educators analyze their Diagnostic data to create small groups based on instructional priorities. Using corresponding i-Ready resources, they create actionable small group instructional plans to support students with grade-level instruction. As time permits, educators plan for additional teacher-led instruction to support students in Personalized Instruction and/or how to engage students through data chats.

Have you ever had a student ask how 2x is different from x^2? Algebra tiles are an invaluable tool for creating connections between abstract ideas and tangible understanding. They help learners make sense of pivotal concepts such as the distributive property, simplifying expressions, and solving equations. Algebra tiles also offer a visual way to explain why the inequality sign seems to 'flip' when dealing with negative coefficients. Join this session to discover how algebra tiles can powerfully deepen your students' conceptual understanding of key algebraic principles.
Dive into the world of AI with MagicSchool! Participants will explore the fascinating realm of generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs), unraveling how they can revolutionize our approach to learning. Experience hands-on activities, learn to craft powerful prompts for AI tools, and discover the array of resources available on the MagicSchool platform. Although the session is designed with Social Studies in mind, all educators are welcome to join.
This course will walk participants through a selection of highly accessible Yoga and mindfulness strategies that teachers can employ in their busy days to support their own self-care. The course will include opportunities to reflect, meditate, practice Yoga postures, and relax. The course is designed for any admin, teachers, and staff in the K-12 setting.
This hands-on, immersive experience is designed to help educators deepen their understanding of the effective and practical strategies to facilitate academic discourse that promotes inclusive science and STEM classrooms. Educators will engage as learners in a variety of intentionally planned instructional strategies and collaborative group discourse structures, that promote access to scientific discourse and opportunities to collaborate with peers. In addition, we will be discussing the shift away from traditional talk patterns- like I-R-E (Initiate, Response, Evaluation) and towards Productive Talk to promote inclusive science and STEM classrooms. Resources used include the Talk Science Primer and the 9 Productive Talk Moves. A digital resource collection of all resources used will be provided.
Learn how to access and incorporate a broad buffet of online instructional content and activities into your English instruction. From lessons to activities to quizzes, you will learn how to tap into a powerful resource in whatever way best suits your lesson style, preferences, and needs.
The Mexican Revolution is one of the most important events of the 20th Century. The first revolution of the century, it’s a narrative that is at times complex, complicated, and perhaps even convoluted. While there is no way to calculate the exact number of casualties, historians estimate that one million people were killed during the Revolution. There is no question the Revolution irrevocably changed the course of Mexican history, but it also had a significant impact on the United States. More than one million Mexican refugees entered the United States attempting to escape the death and destruction wrought by the Revolution. Despite this impact, the topic of the Mexican Revolution, if taught at all, is only briefly addressed in classrooms or textbooks. As the first revolution caught on film, available resources allow students to actually see the people and events that would forever change North America. In this workshop, we will consider ways to integrate the Mexican Revolution into 6-12 grade classrooms. An in-depth educator’s guide will be provided.

Have you ever wondered why Arizona has so much copper compared to the rest of the country or how that copper got there? In this lesson, teachers will learn an engaging and math-rich method to model the concentration of copper in various types of rocks. They will also develop a demonstration to illustrate the cutting-edge geological theory explaining science’s best ideas about how copper gets to the places we find it in the Earth’s crust.
Understanding labor market data prepares students to make effective personal, professional, and civic decisions. Attendees will participate in activities from two new lesson plans that engage students in analyzing messy real-world data to arrive at conclusions about unemployment.
