This cohort continues the collaboration and application based professional learning experience we began last year with the Blended and Virtual Coaching Cohort. With a continued focus on building capacity through blended and video-enhanced coaching and leadership. Even better, since we did most of the heavy lifting in terms of learning in the first cohort, this experience takes a less intense pace so you have more time to apply, reflect and share! We'll kick off in July with a half-day session focused on defining roles and responsibilities, designing learning experiences, enrollment processes for coaching, communication plans, and setting personal goals to drive your work and learning in the fall. After the first few weeks of school, we'll meet every three weeks for a total of 5 live sessions.

The Creative Curriculum® for Texas and El Currículo Creativo™para Texas focus on meeting the needs of individual children, while honoring and respecting the role that teachers play in making learning engaging, inspiring, and meaningful for every child. Learning takes place through hands-on, “minds-on” project-based investigations, or studies, which have been shown by research to be the most developmentally appropriate way for young children to learn. Studies integrate academic rigor alongside social–emotional learning, cognitive development, and meaningful interactions through in-depth investigations of a topic such as water, wheels, or boxes. Children raise questions about the topic and, through exploration and discovery, find answers to their questions. 09/14/2021 Module 2: Water; 10/20/2021 Module 3: Simple Machines; 12/9/2021 Module 4:Making Music; 2/3/2022 Module 5: Gardening; 03/31/2022 Module 6: Wheels/Boxes Getting Ready for Kindergarten

Then they take that knowledge to the next level with a series of blended activities powered by Buzz, including facilitated whole-group discussion; hands-on project-based learning; independent self-directed work; and 1-on-1 check-ins. Participants leave with an understanding of the key principles of how to use technology seamlessly to enable learning in class, at home, or both. Guest Presenter: Heather Staker co-author of the Amazon bestseller "Blended: Using Disruptive Innovation to Improve Schools" as well as the companion book "The Blended Workbook"

Testing for SLD is harder than it should be, and the key is to establish a sound foundation. This training will attempt to do this by laying the foundation of Cross-Battery Assessment in a way that gets to the main points while eschewing patois and argot that is endemic in our field. We will be covering the DD/C model of SLD, CHC Theory, Cross-Battery Assessment, and the XBASS software as non-technically as possible to help build that sound foundation.

Presenter: Dr. Victor J. Young - Language is a powerful tool that enables the ability of meaningful interaction with our environments. Research supports that when children with disabilities are purposely taught the tools to navigate social norms then they will be able to overcome challenges they face in general education spaces. When engaged in developmentally appropriate practices, children become active participants in the learning process. COVID-19 and virtual spaces have highlighted the importance of in-person instruction for young children. Learning takes place in rich learning environments sustained through social interaction between peers and instructors. Teachers play a vital role to extend and empower children’s language and social emotional learning by developing opportunities for children to speak, listen, read, and write. Children with disabilities need to be taught the skills to appropriately engage with their surroundings. This session aims to empower teachers through making foundational ties of pre-learning skills to the Prek Guidelines. We will make connections to the PreK guidelines to strengthen Inclusive Early Childhood settings. We will examine teaching philosophies and pedagogical approaches. Through these conversations we will have opportunities to engage in “make and takes”, practice read-alouds, and develop high quality Pre-k inclusive centers to facilitate language.

In too many schools across the country, parents feel locked out of their children’s learning process or unsure of how they can get involved. In this session we’ll explore how to welcome families into your school and open up a dialog that empowers them to become active participants in their children’s education. Learning objectives: • Assess your current welcoming practices • Understand why families can feel estranged from the learning process • Recognize the difference between “doing to” and “doing with” • Implement strategies that enhance two-way communication • Design initiatives that move from compliance engagement to authentic relationships with families • Engage in active listening
