Objectives
In the Rich Teaching Book Study participants will:
- Develop greater awareness and action to engage students from poverty by learning about the seven high-impact mindsets necessary to reach students from poverty and help them succeed,
- Reflect upon the seven mindsets and how they fit into their individual content/classroom,
- Design a plan for implementation of mindsets in relationship to their individual classrooms/schools for the 2020-21 school year,
- Explore and select resources from the SD SFEC from which they will create a Family Implementation Plan for 2020-21,
- Learn to use technology platforms like Google Sites, Nearpod, and Flipgrid.
