Professional Development Day - Jan 18

The focus of our professional development this year has been reading comprehension for our staff and students in grades TK-4th. There are 7 comprehension strategies we will be working on for the remainder of this year and next year. Our goal is to have consistent language and concepts in every classroom throughout our school. In November and January, our focus was on the strategy of Sensory Imaging. Staff members have learned about this strategy and have participated in a variety of activities to develop lessons and implement this new strategy with integrity in each classroom. I have included a couple of pictures from January 18th while the staff members were sharing ideas about how they have been teaching sensory imaging. There was a teacher from each grade level in these groups so they could share their ideas with staff members other than their own grade level.
