Training Description

Building Knowledge Through Community, Connection, and Collaboration Professional learning and collaboration days. Agendas will have three components: 1. Book study and discussion 2. New learning, follow-up from other trainings, and/or clinical experiences 3. Going deeper with coaching techniques Site Visits: We are offering two fee structures: one that includes site visits and one that does not. A site visit is a day-long walk-through of a school building, during which the learning environment and instruction are observed to set both short-term and long-term goals. Participants include the building principal, literacy coach, Transformation Teaching consultants, and any other individuals the building or district invites. The bundle saves the district money by avoiding the need to sign up separately. New This Year: Two one-to-one coaching sessions between the literacy coach and a Transformational Teaching consultant. The sessions will be two hours in length and conducted via Zoom, unless otherwise mutually determined. Dates for Literacy Coaches (also attend CLLN and NLA): 1. Friday, September 12, 2025 2.
