Classroom Assessment That Works - PD for Grades 6 to 8 Teachers

Calling all grade 6 to 8 teachers!! You've taken the rest, now take the best - PD, that is!

You are invited to join us at the ETFO Durham office for a new and informative three-part series that is being offered by the local in partnership with provincial ETFO. The series includes two half-day sessions (with release funded by ETFO) and one afterschool session. Specific times and dates are listed below. Classroom Assessment That Works for Intermediate Teachers has been designed to meet and support your daily classroom assessment needs, by providing you with the following:

• A variety of assessment tools and strategies, information on gathering data for feedback and reporting, and methods for using assessment data to inform instruction.
• A toolbox of assessment strategies and information that can be used to reflect on assessment practices.
• Time and an ETFO space to collaborate and brainstorm with colleagues about some of the challenges that face classroom teachers with respect to assessment practices.

See the flyer on your ETFO bulletin board for registration information, or speak to your Workplace Steward (they will receive a PDF version of the flyer today via Lotus Notes). The registration deadline is FAST approaching - Tuesday, March 2nd, and there's space for only 25 members. Hope to see you there!
