The purpose of this continuous learning community of practice for kindergarten is to create a community of kindergarten teachers with a focus on home-based learning to build stronger connections with families and students.
OSPI also hopes to support families and educators to scaffold ways that kindergartners manage their own learning at home using these strategies:
· Expand the use of GOLD®, including use of Teach and Family tools.
· Provide home-based learning and assessment for kindergarten students that are grounded in the family’s routines and priorities amidst school closure.
· Build on platforms that families are already using, such as Seesaw, Class Dojo, and Ages and Stages Questionnaires.
· Help families incorporate their knowledge of their child and feel at ease with home-based learning during this stressful time and beyond.

The end goal of instruction is student independence. How do we support students in reading complex texts and move them to independence? In secondary classrooms when units involve multiple texts of varying degrees of complexity, how do we build student confidence and skills. These material from a recent workshop will provide ideas to foster discussion, further research, and steps to take.
Please feel free to add ideas in the discussion options.

Whether entering the workforce after high school, tech school, or
college, students need to develop writing skills for the work settings.
These writing skills complement and extend academic writing and engage
students in authentic tasks. Writing in career fields extends far
beyond resumes and applications. From reports and proposals to memos and
customer communication, this writing is rigorous and demands many of
the skills found in the ELA standards. Join us in this 90 minute webinar
to examine workplace writing tasks and how integrating them in your
secondary and elementary courses will help students learn the ELA
standards and prepare for lifelong literacy.

By the time students get tot he revision stage of writing, they often lack the motivation and skill to revise their writing effectively. In this session participants will share and
research ideas for improving student willingness to revise their writing and
skills in doing so. The class will begin with a live, online session for participants to meet and share ideas. This will be followed by independent time to read, research, reflect, and possibly test some revision activities. A final live, online session will allow participants to share their findings and plan for next steps.

Climate Transformation Grant (SCTG) supports Washington school districts across
the state that serve low-income and/or racially diverse students and families.
Selection is based on, but not limited to, the percentage of free or reduced
lunch, equitable access to resources, disciplinary rates, and the amount of
funding per students. We center working with districts who are committed
to implementing a sustainable and school-wide multi-tiered behavioral framework
that will lead to a positive, anti-racist school climate.

We all know that orchestrating classroom discussions can be challenging, join us as we learn and work through Intentional Talk: How to structure and lead productive mathematical discussions.
You will need to purchase the book.
From the Description:
Not all mathematics discussions are alike. It's one thing to ask students to share how they solved a problem, to get ideas out on the table so that their thinking becomes visible; but knowing what to do with students' ideas—where to go with them—can be a daunting task. Intentional Talk provides teachers with a framework for planning and facilitating purposeful mathematics discussions that enrich and deepen student learning. According to Elham Kazemi and Allison Hintz, the critical first step is to identify a discussion's goal and then understand how to structure and facilitate the conversation to meet that goal. Through detailed vignettes from both primary and upper elementary classrooms, the authors provide a window into what teachers are thinking as they lead discussions and make important pedagogical and mathematical decisions along the way.
Additionally, the authors examine students' roles as both listeners and talkers and, in the process, offer a number of strategies for improving student participation and learning. A collection of planning templates included in the appendix helps teachers apply the right structure to discussions in their own classrooms.
Intentional Talk provides the perfect bridge between student engagement and conceptual understanding in mathematical discussions.
