ELA Teachers' Network
April 30th, 2024

WHAT TO EXPECT:
These sessions are designed to allow some learning to take place from the facilitator, but more learning will take place from peers and colleagues. Along with this new learning and collaboration, participants will have time to work independently, as well as with others, to create activities they can implement and utilize in their classroom. Although each day will vary on specific strategies shared and collaboration topics, there will be a consistent approach to these networking meetings.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
The targeted group for this year will be ELA teachers in grades 3-8, or those that teach a Keystone trigger class. We will dive into data, hear what districts are doing if they are achieving higher scores, and taking time to learn from each other on strategies and best practices in their classrooms.
There is additional information for another possible option if you do not teach one of the grades listed for this networking series.
