It is time for a disruption in the “norm” of education. It is time for educators to feel excited to teach again. It is time for educators to have the creative freedom to develop fun, engaging, effective instruction that not only meets the needs of students, but also meets the expectations of the content standards.
This teaching cohort will give educators the knowledge and tools to help them be more efficient and effective with the time they have with their students. It is not another thing to put on their plates, rather tools and information on how to integrate students needs, content standards, and district expectation. This cohort strives to bring back the love of teaching by providing educators with the tools and knowledge of the IntegratED Framework. This cohort will offer educators to be part of a community who are also striving to make a change. Also, give educators the knowledge and implementation of classroom learning experiences, planning guides and instruction, and not to mention, amazing guest speakers.
