Professional Development Workshops for Middle and High School English Departments
Hosted by Amanda Cardenas
ELA Department Chairs, this is for you...
If your teachers are struggling with any of the following, you're going to need to hear me out.
Are your teachers:
Feeling tapped out of inspiration after a grueling first semester?
Hitting a slump and finding themselves working harder and harder but without the results they were hoping for?
Comfortable getting students through the basics, but struggling to stretch past identification and comprehension into analysis and critical thinking?
Stuck in a loop of frustration instructing novels and feeling like they have to spoon-feed every single plot detail?
HERE'S THE GOOD NEWS:
I have a Spring Workshop that can help with all of this.
