It’s all about strengthening the instructional core! This workshop is uniquely designed to equip educators with a proven methodology and instructional approach focused on Transformative Rapport, Engaging Instruction, and Aligned Curriculum. The goal is to build educators’ instructional capacity so they possess the skills, strategies, and tools necessary to meet the needs of diverse learners while reducing achievement/opportunity gaps. Utilizing concepts from his newly released book, “Is Your Lesson for You or Your Students,” Dr. Taylor introduces participants to the ICED TEA Framework, an instructional methodology for centering students during the instructional process. This framework is a resource and step-by-step guide to help educators create engaging, standards-aligned lessons. In addition to guiding teachers through an interactive activity to strengthen their ability to “unwrap” the priority standards, Dr. Taylor will also share practical strategies for creating a learning environment where each student feels seen, heard, and empowered.
