This course is designed to reinforce and extend the past two years of CCR learning in elementary schools, while also providing new teachers an opportunity to catch up on any missed content. Its primary goal is to help educators apply key objectives directly to their classroom practice, ensuring that best practices are not only remembered but consistently implemented.
The course emphasizes a spiraled approach, integrating both knowledge and application so that learning builds over time. Participants will engage in face-to-face instruction, guided opportunities for classroom application, structured reflection, and embedded coaching with the instructor to deepen understanding and strengthen practice.
Number of Units: 2.0 graduate level extension credit(s) in semester hours
Who Should Attend: This course provides continuing education for DoDEA Participants.
