Sessions
Math K-12: Continuing to Build a Math Classroom Based on Discourse
This session continues to develop teacher habits for orchestrating a discourse-driven classroom by exploring effective ways of "selecting & sequencing" student solutions to tasks. Participants will use Dr. Gladis Kersaint's whitepaper, Selecting & Sequencing Student Work: Facilitating Productive Discussions in the Classroom, and will have an opportunity to practice the 5-step process of effectively Anticipating, Monitoring, Selecting, Sequencing, and Connecting the mathematics. Participants will analyze student work, practice making decisions about how they would select and sequence the students' solutions, and discuss their decisions with their peers, including ways to support English Learners. This session will be presented by Beth Soechting from Curriculum Associates.
Supporting Elementary Student Who Exhibits Challenging Behavior
Room 219
Presenter: Jeffrey Wright
K-5 Student Thinking in Science Using Natural Phenomena
The new TN state science standards show a teaching shift in practices, content and cross cutting concepts. So how do you help your teachers plan and develop strong science lessons structures? The answer is through phenomena based teaching. Phenomena teaching will be highlighted during this session and will give you some excellent “look fors” in your science classrooms along with tools to help teachers develop quality lesson that center around student thinking. Join us in science as we highlight the teaching shift to the new standards.
6-12 Science: Student Thinking in Science Using Natural Phenomena

K-5 Integrating Media Literacy Standards with Social Studies: It’s Elementary!
Room 215
Maximize instructional time! Join this session to learn about planning and implementation of intentional media literacy and social studies standards-based collaboration. The session models 5th grade standards, but the concept can easily be applied to all grade levels.
Presenters: Katherine Petko and Amber Moser
6-12 Foundational Writing Skills in the Social Studies Classroom
This session provides step-by-step writing strategies that can be easily implemented in the social studies classroom. Understanding the vital steps in the writing process helps students craft well-developed sentences and paragraphs.
Presenters: Judy Newgent and Linda Perry
Differentiation Math Instruction for the Honors and/or Advancing Learner
This session will introduce research-based strategies the can be used daily to meet the needs of the honors and/or advancing math student. Participants will have an opportunity to apply and practice these strategies on current 6-12 math content.
Presenter: Gary Petko
The Learning Challenge
Often teachers and students may believe that learning should be easy, but we know it is not. We need to teach students to persevere through challenging work. The learning challenge is designed to help students think and talk about their learning including the cognitive conflict. Join us as we explore how to help both our teachers and students engage in this conversation.
Why Knowledge Matters: Consideration of 30 Years of Curriculum Research
K-2 Reading
Room 205
Do your students have difficulty understanding writing tasks? Do they know what to write or where to begin? Are students able to read what they write?
Would you like to learn when and how to use a progression of sentence frames?
Join us as we review a model of gradual release to support students with the writing process. We will share challenges K-2 students may face and discuss specific instructional supports (scaffolds) for differentiation throughout the year including ideas for providing feedback and monitoring progress.
Student writing samples will be available, but you may choose to bring some as well.
Copies of the K-2 Writing Rubrics will also be available. The rubrics represent a consensus of work from a previous Teaching and Learning Day.
6-12 Planning for the Ready Graduate Indicator with ELA
The building blocks for a student's ELA schedule begin in elementary, but middle school sets the trajectory for high school Early Postsecondary Opportunities (EPSO). This session will look at the Pre-AP work that College Board is releasing and will help schools from middle to high plan a progression that helps all students access an EPSO in English from AP/IB to Dual Enrollment to CLEP.
WIN TIME (What I Need) 3:00 - 4:00
Understanding Dyslexia- What Now?
Presenter: Paula Sarver
Description: What are we doing differently in serving students with characteristics of dyslexia? How do we implement strategies throughout the day and ensure the intervention addresses the needs of the students and the characteristics they exhibit? What is other training available for teachers and staff?
SIOP Component 5 Interaction and Component 6 Practice and Application (Room 205)
Presenter: Darlene Davenport
Description: In the fifth session we will examine Component 5 Interaction and Component 6 Practice and Application. We will discuss the importance of Interaction including 1) teacher/student and student/student interaction, and grouping configurations, 2) how to select activities that promote interaction, and 3) identify resources to support student clarification in the native language. We will also discuss within Practice and Application the following: 1) the importance of hands-on activities and manipulative materials, 2) linking practice and application activities to specific lesson objectives, and 3) and planning for activities that integrate all languages skills.
Title: Continuum of Services: CoTeaching & Special Education Intervention (Room 219)
Presenters: Sheena Rauhuff, Melissa Connor (Fulton High School); Mollie Seay, Rebecca Bitner (Middle School Facilitators)
Session Description:
Co-Teaching has become an increasingly employed delivery options that affect a diverse group of students. However, it is not enough to simply place students with disabilities in general education classrooms and expect improved results.
In this session we will explore three dimensions that are vital to contemporary, outcomes-driven co-teaching:
- Updated Roles & Responsibilities of the general and special educators
- Co-Teaching structures—going beyond traditional
- Specialized Instruction & Intervention
-Teaching Models in Secondary Schools
