Workshop Description:

Explicit instruction helps us support and meaningfully engage ALL students. It has quite an impact on diverse groups of students across all grade levels, in general and special education classrooms who are learning both academic and non-academic concepts. For all students, including students with disabilities and English Learners, it provides an approach that integrates listening, speaking, reading, and writing, and can be used in pre teaching and reteaching content and skills. For students with disabilities, it is also an important component of Specially Designed Instruction.

We will spend time in the areas below (and more!):
- breaking down concepts and skills to logically sequence lessons and craft clear objectives
- providing students with necessary schema and background knowledge, on which to build new understandings
- planning for guided and supported practice through modeling, demonstrating, thinking aloud, active engagement, scaffolding, and fading supports
- being responsive to student needs through formative assessment and providing informative and actionable feedback
- building independence and generalization within lessons and through periodic review, practice, and application
