Ensuring that your students are getting the maximum benefits from Writing Workshops is imperative for overall academic growth.
What is your individual learning style? Can you identify the preferred learning style of each of your students?
If you give it some thought, it is more likely than not that every possible learning style is represented in your classroom. That can make it difficult to provide a successful learning environment for all your students, but there is one method that will have all the present learning styles covered.
Educators have faced unprecedented challenges in the past few years. When COVID-19 caused the world to come to a screeching halt, many schools and teachers had to learn new technologies and implement new strategies, all while driving learning. Throughout all of this, if we have learned anything, it is the value in collaboration.
Are you looking for a Christian-Based high school biology program?
The Kendall Hunt PreK–12 Religious Publishing in collaboration with the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) North American Division (NAD) Office of Education developed a new Christian-based high school biology curriculum, ByDesign Biology!
“Every teacher’s goal is to provide the best learning environment for their students. For the early childhood classroom, learning centers is the best developmentally appropriate practice” (McLennan, 2011).
The possibilities for the use of faith-based reading in the classroom are nearly limitless!
The Quest for Teachable Moments
“When students begin to question the phenomena that they have observed, much of the task of teaching is complete and the learning begins,” Jarrell Gilkeson, former Associate Director of Education for the Atlantic Union, said. “The ByDesign elementary science textbook series stages the questioning, exploring, and explaining inquiry process to maximize the teachable moments in each student’s science education.”
Have you ever wondered how you can use all the core resources in one useful curriculum? A curriculum that aligns with your core beliefs and standards?
With every new school year comes the excitement and challenge of reviewing and implementing a new curriculum. Most curriculums require you to put in additional time to find resources supporting the required expectations of a school and the staff. Many educators experience frustration when trying to find the perfect resources for their needs.
When Larry Blackmer became vice president of the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) North American Division (NAD) Office of Education, he immediately realized the importance of a Christian-based science curriculum. Spurred by his determination to give Adventist students—and all Christian students—a science curriculum designed for their needs; the NAD collaborated with the Kendall Hunt Religious Publishing Division (RPD) to create the highly successful ByDesign Science textbook series for grades 1–8.
A well-structured lesson plan is essential to the success for any classroom. This takes preparation, planning, and are key elements in ensuring the lesson is systematic and effective. Learning activities guide and engage students towards achieving agreed learning outcomes. So what if the programs you are using already had a well-structured lesson plan embedded for you throughout each unit, chapter, and lesson?
