About this Event
Supporting teachers to grow toward enhanced instructional practices works best when we build from their strengths. This means that we work to know our teachers well, to notice and name the strengths they have in their classroom, and to partner with them to determine a next-step in instructional improvement.
This workshop is designed to support coaches and leaders in developing a strengths-based approach toward teacher development. This approach gives coaches and leaders space to work together in exploring a progression of teacher learning, and then supporting teachers through that progression. In addition to developing and using a progression of teacher learning, being strength-spaced means using language that maintains a positive attitude about the teaching and learning within the school. It also means modeling and asset-based approach through actions.
Coaches and leaders will leave this session understanding how to consider a progression of teacher learning toward strengthened instructional practices and strategies to maintain an asset-based approach to teacher growth and practice.

The KINL Coaching: Using a Strengths-Based Approach to Coach Teachers workshop is designed for coaches, department chairs, team leaders, administrators, and others who provide professional development experiences and/or coach teachers in new practices.
