World Language Teacher Retreat 2018
An interactive workshop for all world language teachers!
Come join us for an interactive workshop based on proficiency-based instruction in a world language classroom. You’ll see elements of various approaches and be able to pick and choose and adapt what you already do to more completely engage your students in their next unit. Woven throughout the workshop day will be technology tools, online resources, formative/summative assessments and project-based learning ideas. All world language teachers are welcome!
Takeaways include:
- Exploring myths and realities regarding proficiency-based instruction
-
Learning and Using Integrated Performance Assessments (IPAs)
Discovering authentic resources for instructional planning
Working with Can-Do Statements in the classroom
Teachers are encouraged to bring a fully-charged device, their current language materials and come prepared for an informative, engaging session. Invite your colleagues from other schools as collaborative unit planning can be a lot of fun and sharing ideas and the workload is always a plus! This interactive “Can Do” focused workshop is well worth the time since everyone will leave with a completed unit to begin the school year PLUS great ideas for future units.
This professional learning opportunity is presented by Jill Woerner, a current world language instructor and former IDOE world language specialist. Please plan on joining us on June 21, 2018 at the Southern Indiana Education Center office. See below for more information!
