Agreement with CPET, Teachers College, to provide professional development services to meet the district’s needs of increasing student achievement through effective writing practices. The workshops for teachers as well as school leaders will develop their instructional expertise in utilizing discussion strategies as a pre-cursor to writing which will in turn support students in writing. Through critical reflection and support from experienced coaches, teachers will be able to analyze the task and student work in order to change their instructional practices to meet students’ needs. Teachers will build on the first strategy to expand the process of writing for students.
