Teachers used a portion of the workshop session to prepare lessons for the upcoming school year, as well as worked together in small groups by grade level to design lessons in ELA. Teachers then used ‘crosswalk’ vocabulary and concepts for additional planning for the future.

“Presenter was knowledgeable and engaging. I found this session to be quite helpful as I prepare for our upcoming Quality Review.”

“This workshop was quite informative. At least I now have an idea of what the reviewer looks for.”
