It ensures active participation, leading to better retention and application of new skills and strategies.

Engaging Stations Professional Development (Canva Copy Link)
As educators, we shifted away from incorporating hands-on resources in the classroom during the onset of COVID-19. Utilizing hands-on materials provides students with a tactile and experiential approach, offering a tangible way for learners to connect with abstract concepts and enhance understanding. Through hands-on engagement, such as manipulating objects or participating in interactive activities, students can more readily comprehend intricate ideas and improve information retention. It's now opportune to revisit and rediscover the hands-on resources available for classroom use or those that may have been overlooked.
Ron Clark 55 Essential Rules Slides (Canva Copy Link)
The daily focus is on one rule at a time, spanning from Rule 1 to Rule 55. You have the option to print a weekly slide to share with parents or use it as a classroom guide. Additionally, you can download the slide as an image for social media sharing or use it on your smartboard for teaching and modeling each week's rule. Each slide features the corresponding Ron Clark rule accompanied by a relevant picture. The editable slides allow customization to align with your school's preferences, including the option to replace pictures with images of your students exemplifying the rule.
Engaging Top Chef Professional Development Template (Canva Copy Link)
This Canva Template Presentation revolves around the "Top Chef" theme, featuring a teach-off challenge for teachers to showcase their expertise in the focused teaching strategy or best practice emphasized in the professional development. Within a specified time frame, teachers will research the topic, create presentations, and present in front of judges, fostering a dynamic and collaborative learning environment. Similar to the show "Top Chef," this format encourages teachers to learn from each other, gaining insights into diverse strategies for classroom implementation.

Math Engagement Professional Development, PD, Instructional Coaching, Admin
By Professional Development and Teacher Prep
Are you an instructional coach or administrator seeking innovative ways to deliver a professional development session on enhancing student engagement in math? This customizable professional development (PD) template is an excellent starting point for guiding teachers on how to incorporate engaging, hands-on activities into their math instruction using their current curriculum. The template is fully editable, allowing you to personalize it with details specific to your curriculum, school environment, and even add photos or videos to further customize the experience.
Session Overview:
Teachers will use this framework to reflect on their current practices and discover how to balance participation and critical thinking in their classrooms.
Research-Backed Approach: Engaging students through hands-on, interactive learning has been proven to enhance academic achievement. A study in a low-income elementary school found that students exposed to 12 weeks of hands-on learning experiences significantly outperformed their peers in classrooms using traditional textbook-based instruction (Guthrie et al., 2006). This PD leverages these insights to promote engaging, active learning environments that make a lasting impact on student performance.
**Customizable and Flexible:**This PD template is completely editable, giving you the flexibility to adapt it to your school’s specific curriculum and instructional goals. Whether you need to add school-specific materials, customize the activities, or include photos of your own classrooms in action, this template provides the framework to create a professional development session tailored to your teachers' needs.
By the end of the session, teachers will leave equipped with practical strategies to engage students, increase participation, and foster a deeper understanding of math concepts—all while making learning fun and meaningful for their students.

This is perfect for middle school/high school, but teachers are encouraged to preview the statements and skip over any which you feel are too controversial for your student population. (I definitely stayed away from the most controversial topics).
►You will love this well-organized activity that allows students to voice their opinions, defend their positions, and even learn something new!
►The printable Reflection Sheet will allow them to reflect on the ideas presented, and asks them to discuss two issues that they may have changed their stance on after the debate and the reasons why. This is an activity I use in my classroom every year and I know your students will love it!
INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:
35 Statements (Google Slides)
Includes a Blank Editable Slide
5 Printable Classroom Signs
Student Reflection Sheet
STUDENT GUIDELINES FOR USING THIS RESOURCE:
►If you agree with the statement, move to the side of the room labeled “Agree” or “strongly agree.” If you disagree, move to the side of the room labeled, “Disagree” or “strongly disagree.” If you’re not sure how you feel about the topic yet, move to the side of the room labeled, “Undecided.” (I typically have "undecided" students stand in the middle and hang the other posters in the four corners of the room.)
***Students should be prepared to defend their position even if they’re undecided.
