Every teacher aspires for excellence at the beginning of the year, but some teachers attain excellence while others struggle to reach it.  The greatest teachers create excellence by developing empowering learning environments where students are inspired to own their learning.  In this interactive and technology-rich session, participants will learn how to create the most rigorous and engaging learning environments in the first 20 days of school by mastering the first 4 levels in the Hierarchy of Learning:

• Resources for Learning
• Classroom Routines and Procedures
• Relationships for Learning
• Student Engagement in Learning

In this training, participants will walk away with a personalized plan to hook all kids in learning beginning with the first day of school.  By leveraging the power of PLCs, participants will also gain proven strategies to utilize collaboration to keep the focus on student learning by improving the adult learning.
