Creating Uplifting Classrooms

 Creating Uplifting Classroom Environments:  Environmental Support for New Teachers 

How are you supporting your early-career educators? CCOSA and the K20 Center have partnered to provide valuable training and support. 

The K20 Center has developed the “Uplifting Classroom Environment” model. Its goal is to provide early-career teachers with a number of practical, research-based tools and activities to help them to begin teaching successfully. This professional development’s objectives come from this model and will introduce participants to a multitude of strategies that actively engage students in rigorous instruction that can be delivered in a face-to-face format or modified to an online format. 

In this professional development, the following objectives will be addressed: 
Environmental Support 

• Understanding Physical Spaces 
• Developing Rules, Procedures, & Interventions 
• Building Student/Teacher Relationships 

Environmental Challenge 

• Active Engagement Strategies/ Lesson Design 
• Rigorous Lesson Design 
• Sustaining Administrative Support 

Dates

In this three-day professional development institute for teachers and administrators, teachers will attend all three days and administrators will attend the third day. You will be notified if this workshop switches to “virtual” attendance.
