Stop the cycle of "extra work" and transform your classroom into a hub for deep thinkers. This session moves beyond repetitive practice to explore authentic enrichment—experiences that enhance the curriculum through high-level inquiry and creative application. Learn to replace standard assignments with impactful strategies like "Fermi Problems," curriculum compacting, and tiered tasks without the burden of writing a second lesson plan. By shifting from "more" to "deeper," you will gain practical tools to challenge advanced learners effectively.
Research indicates that educators spend approximately two and a half hours each week addressing student behavior. That’s nearly 15 FULL DAYS of a school year! With increasing demands on teachers, we cannot afford to lose valuable instructional minutes to preventable disruptions. This session focuses on simple, effective classroom management strategies and routines that create clear expectations and maximize instructional time. Participants will see video exemplars and hear what students, teachers, and administrators think it looks like. In addition, attendees will leave with tools to design a classroom management plan, ensuring systems are in place before students arrive.
