These performance tasks offer authentic\, hands-on scientific and engineering experiences that allow students to demonstrate their understanding of chemistry concepts and scientific practices in a real-world context. Chemistry teachers and science administrators will deepen their understanding of the NYSSLS and the expectations for three-dimensional student learning. Participants will learn how these investigations are designed to prepare students for the type of scientific reasoning and application they will encounter on the Physical Setting: Chemistry Regents examination. Workshop highlights include: -A demonstration of how each investigation aligns with NYSSLS performance expectations and dimensions of learning -Discussion on how the investigations function as assessments of student learning -Hands-on experience with the Chemistry Investigations to model classroom implementation -Collaboration time to develop strategies for successful integration into existing curricula *Please Note: Participants must bring paper copies of each Chemistry Investigation’s documents. These will not be provided at the workshop. Participants should plan to attend both days to have the opportunity to explore all three investigations. Participants should bring a fully charged laptop\, iPad\, or tablet to download resources and access digital tools during the session. Eligible for 12 hours CTLE credit. Can use 2 consortium seats. If district pays\, district approved must be confirmed prior to start of session.\nFlyer: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1T-DI9-Zsokdci5fg8JiphJJl52xUqYis/view?usp=sharing\nRegistration: https://www.mylearningplan.com/WebReg/ActivityProfile.asp?D=13208&I=5417189 URL:/event/exploring-the-nyssls-chemistry-investigations-2-day-workshop-in-person-facilitated-by-kathi-dinota-830-230pm/ LOCATION:JEA Alternative School\, 31 Lee Ave\, Wheatley Heights\, NY\, 11798-1837\, United States CATEGORIES:Instructional Support Services Full Calendar END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20261006T083000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20261006T143000 DTSTAMP:20260616T225618 CREATED:20260513T180059Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260513T180059Z UID:25978-1791275400-1791297000@www.wsboces.org SUMMARY:Supporting Struggling Readers in Upper Elementary: Science‑of‑Reading Strategies That Build Missing Foundational Skills *IN PERSON* facilitated by Lauren Kolbeck Szulc and Deborah Linscott-Feinstein - 8:30-2:30pm DESCRIPTION:Audience: Classroom teachers grades 3-6\, reading teachers\, literacy coaches\, ELL teachers and administrators Upper elementary teachers are increasingly encountering students who still lack essential foundational skills-gaps in phonics\, decoding\, and word recognition that make grade‑level reading feel out of reach. This workshop offers practical\, hands-on guidance grounded in the science of reading to help you support students who are struggling or who never fully mastered early literacy skills. What the workshop focuses on -Strengthening decoding and spelling through explicit\, systematic phonics instruction that meets students where they are -Rebuilding foundational skills for readers who missed earlier instruction or need targeted intervention -Boosting vocabulary knowledge with routines that deepen word meaning\, morphology\, and usage -Integrating phonics\, spelling\, and word study so students can confidently tackle multisyllabic and unfamiliar words Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit.

Participants will work throughout this day long workshop to link practical classroom resources\, engage in example teaching and learning activities\, and focus on planning and preparation to implement this brief with the following outcomes: -Understand the bilingual brain -List the ontological differences between ELLs\, MLs\, and monolingual English learners\, and how to address these differences in the classroom -How to build background knowledge\, provide visuals\, and leverage cognates -Make connections to home languages -Focus on helping students acquire vocabulary and background knowledge to make meaning when reading.
