@glendas_TN#tncohort A6. Other than the staff meetings there’s a PD day every month where our school gets in experts in different areas to do PD at school. Have attended some and looking forward to more.
@gabriela2015@glendas_TN@gabriela2015 I observed a few of our students this week in dance class. I generally see them@in math class and it was amazing to see a whole different side of many of them.
@ArtTeacherEmma I teach math but subbed in a few art classes last week. They’re great for breaking down teacher biases on student learning as well! Saw a very different side of many of my students from the way they are in math to the way they cope in art:)
@andrewrod84 Hi Andrew. We are an international school as well. Lots of PDs unlike yours. The issue is I’ve been so caught up with the clinical and lesson planning that I haven’t taken much advantage of it:( hoping to change that this month:)
@YingChe77801436@glendas_TN Hi. It’s universal design for learning. It’s a framework that introduces differentiation at the planning stage. A lot of student choice is involved.
@glendas_TN#tncohort “A7” the only one I was able to attend was one on implementing UDL in classrooms. There have been all school staff meetings as well that have been very helpful. Hoping to spend more time this month and the next on PD’s.
@glendas_TN#tncohort “A2” The most important would be to educate oneself about different cultures and ethnicities and create a safe zone where all students can celebrate differences.
@glendas_TN#tncohort “A4”. Surprised by how cathartic and satisfying students find stitching:) saw a few work on the machines in the library and they were full of smiles:)
