DESCRIPTION:<b>FACE to FACE</b><br><br>This PL session is designed to deepe
 n teachers’ understanding of both horizontal and vertical progression wi
 thin the Georgia K-12 Mathematics Standards for Mathematics. Participants 
 will engage in collaborative learning experiences that highlight how mathe
 matical concepts develop within a grade level (horizontal alignment) and p
 rogress across grades 6–8 (vertical alignment). Through intentional expl
 oration of standards progressions\, educators will strengthen their abilit
 y to connect prior knowledge\, current grade-level expectations\, and futu
 re learning. Educators will explore manipulatives and hands-on strategies 
 to support all learners in making meaningful mathematical connections and 
 model effective instructional practices that promote conceptual understand
 ing and student engagement.

 faster answers. It is stronger thinking.<br>This one day workshop focuses 
 on how young learners develop number sense and confidence through meaningf
 ul problem solving\, not through memorized steps or isolated strategies. T
 ogether\, we will look closely at how students reason about numbers\, how 
 that thinking develops over time\, and how our instructional choices eithe

 deo\, and student work\, we will explore key progressions in counting\, ad
 dition\, and subtraction. We will focus on how to invite all students into
  the mathematics\, listen for what they understand\, and respond in ways t
 hat move their thinking forward without rushing them toward procedures.<br
 >Teachers will leave with practical routines\, clearer progressions\, and 
 a stronger lens for noticing and responding to student thinking in real ti

 <br>Across the Language and Texts domains\, standards are intentionally pa
 ired to move students from analyzing how texts work (Interpreting) to appl
 ying those same techniques in their own writing and multimodal composition
 s (Constructing).  Rather than teaching reading and writing as separate un
 its\, this session demonstrates how analysis becomes rehearsal for craft. 
 Teachers will explore how standards in syntax\, vocabulary\, context\, str
 ucture\, style\, techniques\, and research are designed to function as rec
 iprocal processes.<br><br>Participants will:<br>*Examine the alignment bet
 ween Interpreting (I) and Constructing (C) standards<br>*Analyze how inter
 preting tasks prepare students for constructing tasks<br>*Design lessons t
 hat move students from analysis to application<br>*Create instructional se
 quences that embed reading\, writing\, research\, and discussion      
  together<br>*Explore assessment implications for integrated standards<br
 ><br>This session reframes instruction from “reading block” and “wri
 ting unit” to a coherent literacy model in which students learn to think
 \, analyze\, and create with purpose.

 ong></p><p>Strong reading comprehension begins long before students read i
 ndependently—it is built through rich\, purposeful talk. In this profess
 ional learning session\, participants will explore the <em>Strive for Five
 </em> conversation framework (Zucker &amp\; Cabell) as a practical tool fo
 r deepening student thinking\, extending oral language\, and strengthening
  comprehension during instruction.</p><p>Participants will learn how to mo
 ve beyond surface-level questioning and instead facilitate sustained\, bac
 k-and-forth academic conversations that require students to explain\, just
 ify\, and refine their thinking. The framework helps educators intentional
 ly structure talk moves that extend dialogue for at least five meaningful 
 turns\, gradually increasing cognitive demand while keeping all learners e
 ngaged.</p><p>Throughout the session\, educators will:</p><ul><li>Understa
 nd the research base connecting oral language development to reading compr
 ehension and academic achievement</li><li>Analyze the structure of Strive 
 for Five conversations and how they support gradual release of cognitive r
 esponsibility</li><li>Practice crafting sequences of questions that build 
 from concrete understanding to abstract reasoning</li><li>Explore strategi
 es for scaffolding student responses to support both emerging and advanced
  language users</li><li>Plan for implementation during read alouds\, small
  group instruction\, and content-area discussions</li></ul><p>This session
  is highly interactive and grounded in classroom application. Participants
  will leave with ready-to-use questioning sequences\, planning tools\, and
  a clearer understanding of how intentional talk can accelerate language d

 ring high-quality\, standards-based instruction.<br>This session will also
  highlight how AI can be used as a think partner for students\, encouragin

 . Strategies will include writing intentional prompts within AI that diffe
 rentiate the level of support students receive when using it as a think pa
 rtner\, allowing for targeted scaffolding\, guided questioning\, and exten
 sion of thinking based on individual student needs.
