State Support Team Region 16 is excited to continue our Closing the Gap Series for 2020-2021 as we welcome Suzy Pepper Rollins returning to our Region to present, “High Impact Instructional Strategies for ALL Learners.” Join us via Zoom on October 14th for flexibly designed sessions which allow participants to learn more about these key strategies for both virtual and in-person learning situations.
Suzy Pepper Rollins, author of Learning in the Fast Lane, lays out a plan of action that teachers can use to immediately move under-performing students in the right direction through her concepts of Acceleration, Standards Walls, and High Impact Instructional Strategies.
You are welcome to come and go from sessions as your schedule allows, or spend the entire day with us! Please note that our schedule for the day will be “progressive” in that each session builds on previous sessions throughout the day.
