At Standards Institute, educators cultivate the mindsets, skill sets, and tools to provide grade-level, engaging, affirming, and meaningful — GLEAM® — instruction. Participants will reflect on current practice, commit to an action plan, and leave equipped and inspired to make every classroom GLEAM. If you’re interested in bringing the powerful learning of Standards Institute home to your district, please connect with our team to discuss hosting a local event.
As school leaders, it’s easy to get swept up in everything that comes with opening a building: building relationships, setting classroom procedures, managing schoolwide systems, beginning-of-year testing, and so much more. But we can’t forget that we’re part of a team. Your teachers have access to data that can be used to support their co-ownership of managing instructional change. This webinar provides simple, actionable tools to share with teachers, inviting them to own their practice and instructional power from the start.
