AE delivers engaging, consequential, and enriching professional development for educators & we are excited to announce our Summer 2025 PD series.
Most teachers know, tricky student behaviors spike at this time of year. It can help to consider simple adjustments for a calmer, more engaged spring classroom.
Developing nature-based curricula through the UbD framework takes outdoor learning from an exciting bonus to a meaningful practice.
Let’s take the time to reflect on how to hold ourselves and our students capable through the ways we talk and think about our students.
Letting go of activities in the classroom to simplify your teaching life is hard and it’s essential for growth, making space for new things, & to avoid burnout.
How can we, as educators, “UbD” lunch? Social connections are integral to development and a huge part of the learning that takes place within the school day.
Despite questions on homework 1 thing is certain: it must be structured with the same intention as classroom learning (in our case, UbD) if it's to be of value.
Resolutions provide a perfect model to bring reflection into the classroom through the backwards-planning framework of Understanding by Design (UbD).
Supporting exploration and knowledge building rather than rushing to adopt a new curriculum is leading to better results for students.
Materials, resources, tools & training providing effective, research-based instruction to develop all aspects of literacy for many kinds of students.
