LEUSD Professional Development 2024-2025

Common Assessments are right around the corner! K-2 teachers are invited to come and develop a better understanding of our new common assessment platforms SVMI (Math) and Acadience (ELA). This PD is designed to:

1. Cultivate an understanding of the assessment's design and ability to guide/inform instruction. 
2. Provide hands-on practice scoring assessments and entering data.
3. Develop best practices for analyzing the data in PLCs. 
4. Provide access to follow up resources that support instruction.

The day will be split in half, one portion dedicated to understanding the use of SVMI and the other portion dedicated to Acadience. Please bring your teacher iPad or an iPad you plan to use when administering the assessments. This PD has been created to support K-2 and RSP teachers only. Lunch will be provided.

Welcome to Session 5 of Project Write: How to Leverage Student Writing for Revisions Through the Lens of a Writer. In this session, we will delve into the art of leveraging student writing to foster effective revisions. Through the lens of a writer, participants will learn how to critically analyze and annotate student work with a focus on guiding meaningful revisions. Teachers will learn how to incorporate mentor texts to support the learning, enhance the writing, and study author moves to understand how they impact the writing for the reader.

This is a repeated session from the 23-24 school year. Feel free to attend if you missed the content last year or need a refresher!
We will meet in room 314
