Workshop Series

Now that administrators have received the training for CITW and the walk through tool, we can begin collecting data on campuses.  Some administrators would like to wait just a bit longer because their teachers have not had training in the nine effective instructional strategies.  As their instructional coach, I will hold workshop series that target CITW.  In small group settings during period by period or during collaboration time, teachers will receive 30 minute overviews of each strategy.  The first will be introduction to all nine followed by 9 sessions looking more deeply into each strategy individually.  As I present these strategies I will post session agendas.  Perhaps they can be of use to someone wanting to implement these in their own classroom, on their campus or in their district.  In addition, as I post agendas, McRel has videos on You Tube with explanation for each strategy and these will be posted, too.
