WORKSHOPS

We will periodically hold workshops that allow teachers to explore concepts in an in-depth manner. These half-day and full-day workshops will be in areas of relevance for our classroom setting. Some of the topics will be similar to the Thursday professional development, while others will deal with topics that we cannot cover long-term.

Here are some potential workshop ideas:
SEI training
Framework for Understanding Poverty
Discipline
Professional Learning Communities
Technology - Galileo, AIMS Web, specific training on things like wikis, blogs, etc.
Reachiing the ELL student
Gifted Education workshops
Content-specific, in order to introduce teachers to a few new ideas

QUESTION:
What type of topics would you like for us to cover in professional development?
