Do your students sit back while you do all the work? It’s time for them to stop being spectators and to get in the game! This class will help redefine “opening, work session, and closing” with research-based strategies that will tap into the energy of your class. See how to jumpstart lessons, get your students working, and wrap up lessons with a fabulous finish.

Instructor will share strategies and resources that support professional learning goals in instructional planning and creating a positive environment for students. Teachers will leave with practical takeaways related to TKES Standards 1, 3, 7, and 8 that will positively impact teaching and learning from the first day of school.
