Semesterly PD Module - Semester One
Hello there,
I am so excited about this post. I’ve been looking forward to this since my wife came up with the idea. We were driving through Yellowstone this summer, and she suggested, “You have so many loyal subscribers. You should find a way to include some of your popular PD in your newsletter.”
She’s one smart individual.
For over three years, my company Cogent Solutions has been making top-notch, editable professional development for busy administrators. The goal of each module is to save you 40-60 hours of your summer, holiday, and personal time that is so often devoted to creating PD for your staff.
The features of our PD modules are many, but here are a few of my favorites:
Easy-to-use file formats (PDF, Word and PowerPoint)
Professionally-designed slides
Professionally copy-edited presenter notes
Research-backed content
Includes an emailable format (Tired of hearing the “this could’ve been an email” complaint?)
100% editable
Each module contains enough material for 1-3 hours of professional development training. And this semester, paid subscribers are getting one of our most popular modules included in their annual subscription. (We’ll also send you a second module in December).
That’s right, you can click over to our website right now and purchasee the module. OR, if you’re a $60 annual subscriber, you can use the link below and downloand it immediately as part of your subscription. You’ll also get a second module in December.
Your Semester One Module
Classroom Management: Building Classroom Structure
A 2015 study found that, of all the different aspects of teaching, teachers felt least prepared to deal with classroom management, especially right out of prep programs. Many teachers feel classroom management is a skill you either have naturally or will never have, like the ability to cross your eyes. We, on the other hand, firmly believe it’s something that can be taught, and we offer a clear, step-by-step guide to developing a strong classroom management plan.
This module will allow you to go in-depth with your staff about how to avoid student humiliation, gather student input, and utilize conflict resolution tools like Restorative Practices. The module concludes with our Eight Tips for Finishing Strong, a valuable toolbox for maintaining quality instruction and engagement during those final months of the school year.
Concepts covered include: The Importance of Structure, Teacher Management Styles, Classroom Environment, Four Steps to a Classroom Management Plan, Restorative Practices, The First Two Weeks of School, Maintaining and Sustaining, Eight Tips for Finishing Strong, and more!
