Fall+Conference+New+Teacher+Session+Ideas

Please put down ideas and items you want to be included in the Fall New Teacher Session

I have attended this session and loved the amount of resources and websites given to me. I've shared them with my colleagues and received feedback about how helpful the information was. If you would like, I could share my experiences and resources (bibliography page and websites) about how my school utilizes the reading/writing workshop. Let me know! Thanks, Dawna

Excellant idea Dawn I like it Write up what you want to present. Can you do it in 10 minutes or less.

1st Idea - Intro to those presenting and what you teach - Pullout, cluster, inclusion - Think this should be done as we introduce ourselves, when we are presenting on topics. 2nd idea. - update the websites that we have been giving out inthe last prsenstations - I hear these have always been a big hit. 3rd idea. - produce another mentor sheet with the councils emails on it with the areas you teach- grades, subjects so on 4th idea - end the session with a Q & A session. I think at least 10 or 15 minutes for this what do you all think? 5th Idea - ask how many would like to have a brief over of the gifted rule? If none we skip this, if some then we include it I'd be happy to do and will only take 5 minutes. 6th idea - classroom management how to control your class - rules expectations - dealing with other teachers and principals. 7th idea - any one have some excellant books we can share that they can learn more about topics such as differentiation, so on let me know put more ideas down. :-)
