This is a blended course with both synchronous and asynchronous learning components.
The purpose of this group is to: -Develop a community of readers and build relationships across the region -Increase exposure to newer, diverse and inclusive books -Evaluate and provide feedback on texts for elementary and middle school levels -Curate a list of resources for district/school/classroom curriculum and instruction Find the book list and more information by visiting https://learn.mciu.org/2425bookclub/ The book list was curated in partnership with MCIU, local school librarians and teachers. Participants are responsible for acquiring the required books on their own. The expectation is that participants will come to the meet-ups ready to discuss the texts they read prior and provide feedback using a protocol. In the virtual meet-up, participants will rotate through breakout sessions with colleagues. A protocol will be used to support the conversation and drive feedback on each text. The group is open to all school educators. The book club will consist of 1 professional text and 2 book choices. We will study instructional routines like read aloud, guided inquiry, independent reading amongst others to share ways to build bridges between books and content (sci, ss, ela, math). We are inspired by the principles and tenets of the Book Love Foundation and Disrupt Texts. This book club is great for differentiated supervision projects, research and development of a PBL unit or cross teaming curriculum unit. It's also a great opportunity for those looking to extend their learning from Penny Kittle and Jennifer Serravallo focused workshops.

Structured Teaching aligns with the characteristics of autism, utilizing visual supports to establish predictable routines that are both meaningful and practical for learners. This approach clarifies the environment, reduces anxiety, and helps students with autism stay engaged for longer periods. By fostering these routines, students improve their receptive language skills and experience a decrease in problem behaviors. Visual supports also clarify behavioral expectations, establish consistency, and promote independence. Additionally, classrooms implementing Structured Teaching often see students developing essential life skills and a strong work ethic.

Participants from Montgomery County nonpublic schools may be able to attend with funding. Please contact Lisa Moore at [email protected] to verify eligibility. More
