This engaging two-day workshop is designed for Earth and Space Sciences teachers ready to strengthen student-centered\, phenomenon-based\, three-dimensional learning while improving student performance and engagement. Collaborate with fellow educators in a supportive\, hands-on workspace focused on curriculum\, instruction\, and assessment. Together\, we will examine what is working well\, identify opportunities for growth\, and explore practical strategies to make learning more meaningful for students. This two-day workshop provides a collaborative space for teachers to strengthen curriculum\, instruction\, and assessment within their NYSSLS-based Earth and Space Science program. Participants will bring units\, lessons\, and assessments from their own curriculum and use alignment screeners to evaluate how effectively these materials promote three-dimensional learning and meet NYSSLS expectations. Together\, teachers will identify instructional and assessment gaps\, explore strategies to increase student engagement through relevant local anchor phenomena\, and examine how mini storylines can help connect concepts to authentic student experiences. The workshop will also focus on designing assessments that better prepare students for ESS Regents question clusters while authentically measuring all three dimensions of learning. Participants will analyze sample assessments\, explore ways to strengthen students’ scientific reasoning and written responses\, and investigate how storyline-based assessments and novel scenarios can provide students with more consistent opportunities to apply their understanding throughout the year. Throughout the workshop\, AI tools will be explored as resources for brainstorming and refining instructional materials\, assessment ideas\, student supports\, and practice opportunities.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EtTV-gpvL2SjZ9hwbUO40YSqiuNfyrwL/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5411154 URL:/event/reflect-refine-redesign-a-collaborative-workshop-for-earth-and-space-sciences-curriculum-and-assessment-2-day-workshop-in-person-facilitated-by-brian-vorwald-830-230pm/ LOCATION:JEA Alternative School\, 31 Lee Ave\, Wheatley Heights\, NY\, 11798-1837\, United States CATEGORIES:Instructional Support Services Full Calendar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261020T083000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261020T143000 DTSTAMP:20260613T055827 CREATED:20260515T161551Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260515T161551Z UID:26021-1792485000-1792506600@www.wsboces.org SUMMARY:Preparing for NYS Portrait of a Graduate Financial Literacy Component: Wealth\, Risk\, and Investing VIRTUAL Workshop facilitated by Philip Dituri\, Ph.D.-8:30-2:30pm DESCRIPTION:Get ready to meet New York State’s new Portrait of a Graduate expectations for Personal Finance Education. When taught well\, personal finance is relevant to students’ lives and research shows that students find it interesting\, recognize its importance\, and are naturally motivated to engage with it. This workshop will help you harness that motivation while building your own confidence and capacity to teach these essential topics. Rather than skimming all five state-identified areas\, we’ll take a deep dive into two of the most foundational components of the new standards: -Saving and Investing: Examining how setting money aside and understanding long-term planning support financial well-being. -Risk Management: Understanding that risk is a part of life and exploring strategies to manage it\, including the role of insurance. Together\, we’ll unpack the core concepts\, essential understandings\, and best instructional practices for each area. You’ll experience student-ready activities that illuminate the financial theory and mathematics underlying these ideas\, and you’ll leave with materials and strategies you can implement immediately in your classroom or community setting. This workshop is designed for all educators-math teachers\, non-math teachers\, and anyone looking to strengthen financial literacy instruction. You’ll walk away with ready-to-use activities\, a clear understanding of related standards\, and the tools to empower your students in their academic\, personal\, and future financial lives. No prior financial background required-just curiosity\, commitment\, and a desire to help students thrive. Come join us and discover what meaningful\, engaging financial education can look like in your school! Must have reliable and stable internet connection. Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit.

It empowers educators to address minor\, persistent behaviors before they require complex\, intensive assessments such as FBA/BIP\, focusing on changing the environment to teach better social-emotional skills. Participants will be able to describe challenging behaviors\, understand the behavior pathway and use it to determine the function of behaviors\, and understand and engage with the function-based thinking process to prevent or extinguish unwanted behaviors. They will be able to 1) Operationally define challenging behaviors 2) Understand the behavior pathway and use it to determine the function of behaviors 3) Understand and engage with the FBT process to prevent\, redirect\, reduce and/or extinguish challenging behaviors.
