To Life! Reinvigorating Hebrew for the Classroom with Dr. Amnon Bruck

Thank You!"I learned different ways to incorporate Hebrew into the classroom and ideas to use it in class to help students learn to internalize the vocabulary.

"I will integrate more games, create more visuals, try to avoid translation and use experiential learning when possible."

2014 Supplementary Educators Conference

Thank You!"I learned what strategies to use to help students with special needs stay on task and listen. It was very informative." The words of encouragement were extremely well-described and laid out in such a way that I will try to start using those phrases immediately." "That community building is essential to feeling a part of the community. It can be done many times throughout the year. People stay connected when they feel part of community." "Discussion about Jewish identity was approached on a fresh, engaging, and thorough, stretching workshop.

Thank You!"Stacy was full of information and ideas that are completely doable and are sure to have positive results.

""I would like to do classroom meetings and let the kids come up with ideas.

"I love the phrase "connect before you correct." It reminded me to have positive relationships with my students even though I may be upset with behavior."

Thank You!Liat helped me understand how a teacher is like the conductor of an orchestra. S/he awakens the possibility in the other people."

I need to think about how everyone is capable of learning and to present it in the best way

I am thinking of using a quotes activity and the ice breaker where students write questions on notecards

I will apply concepts about how to be a leader by engaging with my students and inspiring them

Integrating Technology into Your Instruction & Planning with Matt Huston

Thank You!Very encouraging and informative.

Some tools and tricks - this was helpful in my thinking of ways to work with students other than in class, face-to-face

I didn't know this site Edmodo existed. It is fascinating what we are capable of achieving with technology.
