2012 Common Core Institutes

Align Your Literacy Curriculum with the Common Core Standards

Join us for two exciting new institutes designed to train teachers to begin implementing Common Core Standards!

What: Common Core Institute for teachers

When: February 24, 2012 for K5-5th grade teachers     March 23, 2012 for middle and high school teachers

8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Cost: Team of 3--$225 (Individual--$100)

A box lunch will be provided.

During the Institute, your team will experience:

• an in-depth overview of the Common Core Standards

• specific grade level Common Core classroom strategies modeling a balance of reading, writing, speaking, and listening

• actual classroom videos of teachers implementing the Common Core Standards in their classrooms

• exploration of articles emphasizing the integration of reading, writing, speaking, and listening with Common Core Standards

• discussion of classroom practice with experts and experienced teachers

• protocols modeled by Common Core organizers to plan, as a team, for outcomes and possibilities in the classroom

School teams will develop action plans for implementing the strategies in their classrooms/buildings.

This dynamic institute will feature Upstate Writing Project Teacher Consultants who completed a Common Core Research Institute that included NCTE Common Core training during the summer of 2011.  The consultants are Writing Specialists who have received advanced degrees focused on literacy/writing.
