1. Establish means of understanding relationship building in direct correlation to classroom behavior. 2. Have a strong set of techniques and ideas to establish strong classroom culture. 3. Have an understanding of effective classroom management and the methods that create it. 4. Understand the value of building rapport amongst and with students that directly correlates to academic and behavioral success.
This session addresses the growing challenge of student apathy, low participation, and reluctance to engage in classroom tasks. This workshop will explore the underlying causes of disengagement and provide practical, classroom-tested strategies to re-engage learners. Objectives: - Identify key factors contributing to student disengagement and apathy - Examine research-based strategies that increase student participation and motivation - Model and experience active learning techniques that can be used across content areas
This professional development session will equip mid-level and secondary educators (5-12) with the foundational knowledge and practical tools needed to identify, support, and accelerate students with dyslexia and other reading difficulties using RITE Flight strategies grounded in the Science of Reading.
Discover practical and meaningful ways to use formative assessment in the secondary classroom to drive student learning and engagement. This session will explore strategies for checking understanding, providing timely feedback, and using data to adjust instruction in real time. Participants will leave with ready-to-use ideas and tools that support student growth, encourage active learning, and help make instruction more responsive and effective across content areas

Student motivation continues to be one of the most persistent challenges in today’s classrooms. Many traditional approaches (rewards, consequences, and grading systems)are producing diminishing returns, leaving teachers frustrated and students disengaged.
This session reframes motivation as something that is built through intentional classroom systems rather than something students either have or do not have. Grounded in the research and framework of The Will to Learn by Dave Stuart Jr., this session focuses on four key drivers of motivation: credibility, value, efficacy, and belonging.
Participants will examine how these drivers show up in real classrooms and how small, intentional shifts in instructional practice and classroom structure can significantly impact student engagement and effort.
Objectives:
1.) Understand the four key drivers of student motivation: credibility, value, efficacy, and belonging
2.) Identify common classroom practices that unintentionally decrease student motivation
3.) Analyze real classroom examples and strategies that increase student engagement and effort
4.) Help teachers develop a simple framework for evaluating and adjusting their own classroom practices

Demonstrate methods of facilitating student organization of completed classwork as artifact of learning; Examine opportunities for use of artifact including student-led parent-teacher conferences and student self-evaluation of learning.

Just about any content area requires students to memorize information. Before students can apply and use what they know, they have to learn key facts! Students are often overwhelmed with the sheer amount of memorizing that they face in multiple subject areas, but with tips and tricks, YOU can help THEM to process loads of information fairly easily so that they can apply it to larger conceptual learning.

Ever sit through a session and it is drier than the Sahara and it is a struggle to stay awake? Students face this struggle everyday with content that they feel is irrelevant to their daily lives or content that is simply "boring". With student attention spans becoming lower and lower the content needs to evolve. This session will show strategies that can take a boring and dry content and bring hands on learning strategies that keep the students wondering "What will happen next?"
Participants will be able to identify characteristics of engaging vs. non-engaging instructional practices and take the "bland" content and transform it into an engaging lesson that is fun for all learners.
This session equips general education teachers with practical strategies to support students with diverse learning needs. Participants will learn to distinguish between accommodations and modifications, identify strategies that maintain high expectations while promoting student success, and apply grade-level appropriate supports directly to lesson planning. Emphasis will be placed on fostering student independence and confidence, and on collaborating effectively with special education staff to implement these strategies in the classroom. By the end of the session, teachers will be prepared to adapt at least one lesson to include targeted accommodations or modifications that enhance access and engagement for all learners.
