9:00 am 3:00 pm	Beginning Teacher Instructional Rounds Workshop - Day 3 of 3 First and second-year teachers are invited to register for this exciting opportunity! Be a part of this cohort of new teachers, engaging in instructional rounds (the shared practice of observing, discussing and analyzing learning and teaching)! Participants will be able to observe multiple teachers and classrooms each day of the workshop series, followed by reflection and planning for implementation. The rounds and debriefing sessions will be led by an experienced teacher/mentor/instructional coach. Rounds will focus on instructional elements typically identified as areas of need with beginning teachers: classroom management, routines and procedures, and student engagement. These topics have been identified through conversations and surveys with our region's administrators and beginning teachers, as well as experience from previous years' beginning teacher workshops. Participants will also have the opportunity to observe instructional strategies of personal interest. Participating teachers will be expected to implement learned strategies in the time between each session, sharing their trials and successes with their workshop colleagues. Additionally, participating teachers and their students will complete pre and post-surveys regarding instructional elements related to classroom management, routines and procedures, and student engagement. Special Note: First-year teachers will receive mileage reimbursement for their attendance at the workshop courtesy of the NESC Beginning Teacher Network Grant through ESPB and the ND Teacher Support System.
