This session, designed for grades 6-12 teachers, explores how strategic questioning can elicit student thinking and deepen engagement in reading and writing. Participants will examine approaches that promote sustained, student-led discourse and move learners toward independence. The session highlights methods for building autonomy and strengthening academic conversations. Educators will leave with actionable strategies and tools to enhance discourse in their classrooms.
For new teachers—or those who need a refresher on the IEP process: Are you unsure what information to include in your IEP input? Do you know what data should be used to make informed decisions about student placement? Are you familiar with the interventions that should be implemented and documented before recommending a student to CARE? What accommodations and modifications have been tried to support the student in their current placement? Do you need more ideas for interventions? Do you understand the different placement options available for ELA and Math instruction? Are you aware of resources to help guide you with the IEP process? If you answered "no" to any of these questions, this session is for you! Join us to strengthen your understanding of the IEP process, intervention strategies, placement considerations, and best practices for supporting students with diverse learning needs. This training will help ensure that decisions are data-driven, collaborative, and focused on student success while ensuring the least restrictive environment and a positive educational experience for all.
