Teachers in ArPEP year 1 taught lessons today to their colleagues. We learned everything from action verbs to matrices to careers in CTE and music! Our schools are getting some great early career educators!
New teachers and their mentors learned the importance of setting teaching expectations and establishing structure to create an environment in which students thrive. These teachers are off to a great start through CHAMPS training!
These dedicated mentors are learning from NIET trainers how to elevate coaching conversations and lead novice teachers in effectively using student work to make instructional decisions.
Year 1 ArPEP kicked off this week! NAESC ArPEP Facilitator, Gia Taylor, led a session on TESS and the power of being a reflective practitioner.
