Survival Basics
August 30, 2011
September 14, 2011

Join us online for a few hours and leave with a plan for term 1. Together we will look at student work samples from a first exploration (POP, Explo) and project (EN). From there we will piece together the role of the teacher that led to the student work: activities, resources, evaluation. The session will end with participants taking the time to plan out their first term, leaving with all they need to put things in place when they return to class.

Topics:

• Overview of the programs
• Analysis of student work samples
• Role of the teacher: activities, resources, evaluation
• Planning for competency development in term 1
