I started the year and taught the entire class across all subjects through mid-December: Readers and Writer's Workshop, Everyday Math, Stemscopes Science, Words Their Way and a variety of community building curriculums. I was responsible for Open House, Writing Celebrations and Fall Parent Teacher Conferences. I gleaned several tools and approaches from two very strong professional development opportunities: First, I learned about the work by Katie Muhtaris and Kristin Ziemke in Amplify. This helped me apply our one to one iPad program across subjects to deepen student access to information and tools and strengthen their ability to share what they learned with others. Second, I partook in 'The Innovators Mindset' joint Professional Development Day with Yarmouth. This work was facilitated by George Couros.
