In this session, we’ll put a spotlight on UDL and how it supports learners and teachers in exercising their agency.

How can UDL support self-regulation through approaches to learning?

What is the relationship between UDL and differentiation?

In what ways can UDL support ongoing, integrated assessment for, as, and of learning?

What about your goals of inquiry and experiential learning that sticks and transfers?

You know mathematics is about so much more than rote memorization and drill sheets. What does it really mean to be mathematically proficient?

How can you intentionally design mathematical experiences that keep the focus on thinking and learning—rather than a pursuit of answers?

How can you ensure strong mathematical knowledge as well as conceptual understanding?

What methods can you use to ensure universal design for learning, community and a sense of belonging, as well as differentiation and personalization?

Join this session on demand, and leave with the tools you need to launch and live inquiry-rich maths in your context!

Science of Reading? Balanced Literacy? Learning to read? Reading to learn? Foundational skills? Comprehension strategies?

😵‍💫 ??? 😵‍💫

It can feel overwhelming and confusing. In fact, it often seems as if there are two polar extremes in a battle against one another.

But it doesn’t have to feel that way.

Let’s step away from the podcasts and opinion pieces and step into what research actually has to say. What do exemplary teachers of reading actually do?

Join this session on demand, and you’ll leave empowered with a research-informed stance as well as with practical tools to help you nurture all readers in your care.

As an educator, time is your currency. How will you spend it? How can you make the most of each minute with students in your care?

May is an optimal time to plan forward with intention. (Your future self will thank you!) How will you ensure your minutes are spent in ways that honor agency, relevance, and lasting learning?

Join Tonya Gilchrist, Tania Lattanzio, and educators from around the world as we explore ways to keep the vital question What’s worth learning? as the consistent pulse in our instructional design and decision-making.

Leave with a transferable, replicable process to design for lasting learning and transfer that also keeps students and their agency at the heart of it all.

Everyone keeps saying approaches to learning (AtL) skills are one of THE most important things we can teach our students.

There’s just one problem.

Nobody shows you how!

It’s frustrating, right? Reading the research, knowing the value, and thinking: I absolutely want this for my students!!...

…and yet…

Wanting it and living it are two different things.

What’s the best way to go about it? Explicitly? Implicitly?

And exactly WHEN are you supposed to teach these things?! Your plate is already collapsing from its weight…

This is exactly what we’ll explore together in this global workshop. Join educators from around the world to grow new ideas, and leave with a transferable process you can use with any content and concepts you are inquiring into in your context.

Translanguaging.

So far, what you hear sounds great. But, at the same time, you have to admit that sometimes you aren’t exactly sure what the term even means. And you have questions. Lots of them.

What exactly is translanguaging? Why is it vital for learning and teaching in international schools (and beyond!)? How does it walk hand-in-hand with your other core values: agency, equity, access, and more? What could it actually look like in your classroom and your school? Do you need to be able to speak multiple languages in order to support your students in translanguaging?

Together, we'll explore ways to intentionally design learning spaces and plan for learning opportunities that leverage students' plurilingualism as an asset and a resource—keeping the students as our North Star. Always.

I don’t know about you, but I need some JOY. Things have been so heavy for so many (all?) of us. Are you missing the spark? The fun? Learning should be joyful!

Before we head into what I hope is a beautiful semester break, let’s harness some social energy via global collaboration. Bring your biggest burning questions on any aspect of education—from the early years to high school—and we’ll talk out our ideas and insights together from around the world.

Questions like…

• Talk to me about book clubs. What makes them tick?

• How can I organize flexible small group cycles?

• Please tell me how I can get my students to stop following me around the classroom and start harnessing their agency?

• Why does everyone keep talking about transdisciplinarity? What does it even mean?

• SOS! I’m going to tell you my schedule; you tell me how to make it work.

• Should I teach spelling?? What about handwriting??

• What’s the biggest misconception when it comes to inquiry-based learning and teaching?

• What’s your favorite movie? (Just kidding: I'm not that interesting!)

…and anything else that’s on your mind. See you there!
