Here is the whimsical portion...
With that out of the way here is the useful portion...wait for it...
Have you ever found yourself saying...
"Gee, I wish there was professional development that was both meaningful and convenient for my busy schedule!"
or maybe you have caught yourself saying...
"I really wish I could put more professional development hours on my yearly summary and really rock Domain 4!!!!"
Well now you can!
I am going to be doing a series of blog posts right here on ThreeFiftyMainStreet that will touch on a variety of topics. Each post will have a very short activity that can be completed in the comments section at your leisure. My hope is that the activity will inspire collegial conversation and inspire some innovative thinking in the classroom as well as provide you with some tangible methods you can try out immediately. For each post you participate in you can record one hour of Professional Development time for yourself. Participating in a post can be as simple as completing the activity and leaving a comment or as involved as having a professional conversation in the comments section and even coming back to comment after you have tried something in your classroom.
Here are some of the topics you will see over the next few months:
Classroom Management
Teaching Practices
Improving School Climate
Learning from Others
What Makes a Great Teacher
So instead of scrolling through Facebook before you go to sleep at night, log on to ThreeFiftyMainStreet and see what exciting Professional Development opportunities are waiting for you!
