SHOUTOUTS to rockstar veteran teachers Jamie Kumashiro and Caroline Tolentino (from Roosevelt High School) and Kristen Esposito, Amanda Jones, Kelly Sutcliffe, and Sheila Bierwert (from Jefferson Elementary) who hosted Student Engagement professional learning sessions for KMR's Beginning Teachers in October.
The sessions were lively and engaging, with lots of strategies shared! Some of the key points that were made:
* Build relationships with your students! KNOW them and you will KNOW what motivates and engages them
* Give students the opportunity to MOVE! Movement is motivating!
* Give students opportunities to COLLABORATE often!
* Offer students CHOICE! Students will feel empowered and OWN their learning when they have the power of choice.
