ELA & Social Studies Collaborative Opportunity
Join us for a collaborative conversation between ELA and Social Studies teachers to gain traction on cross curricular opportunities. Together, we will move our discussion from general commonalities to the specific crossover skills students and teachers can utilize in both settings. We will build capacity in understanding our standards, engage in high-quality learning opportunities that model effective practices, and cultivate an environment that supports collegial dialogue. Grab your cross curricular team mate if you can and no worries if you can’t—all are welcome! We have planned for time to collaborate with colleagues and networking across districts for best practices and action-based planning. A Zoom link will be shared 30 minutes before the start time.
