Calling this session a playground is very purposeful because it is time for you and your colleagues to explore and play with the ideas presented by the keynote, discussions, and professional practice pathway breakout sessions. This is unstructured time to collaborate, discover, and test out new ideas together. It is time for participants to reflect, think, and consider ways to innovate. We will have classroom locations identified for each of the pathways to help participants to meet an discuss their ideas and plans.
During this time participants should consider the following questions:
- What is one approach you might try out this year?
- What is a new idea that you are excited to explore further?
- What are some units or lessons that you can redesign and reimagine to integrate new ideas?
- What is something you have tried, which you want to adapt for this coming year?
