In a Learning Site, educators come together for a full day in a live classroom around a common area of practice (also can accommodate a ½ day model). Participants talk with the host teacher and set goals for their own classrooms. Participants who continue the learning through virtual follow-up sessions are also able to earn an academic ladder credit.

THANK YOU for all the educators that attended the Learning site at the The Martin Luther King School on the topic “How do we create student-centered, culturally responsive routines & procedures that empower students to be independent, capable problem-solvers?” Our host teacher was Abby Sullivan, a 4th Grade Educator at the King K-6. 5 participants attended this limited space event from 2 BPS schools and BTR leadership.
After the session, 100% of participants said that they would recommend this session to a colleague.
We asked, “What's one thing you observed or discussed during this session that might benefit your students?” Sample responses:
"the idea of planning with adults and being consistent with practices across adults that support and engage students the best."
"the transition tables, implementing norms to make class easier to operate."
We asked, “How has your thinking changed as a result of today's session?” Sample responses:
“that you don't need practice to be perfect that sharing real teaching in real time to start the conversation about making changes and codifying big ideas around a topic is important.”
“it opened my mind up to newer possibles to teaching and how to implement new things into the classroom.”
