First grade will be looking at how to incorporate UFLI into their universal tier instruction for the 2025-2026 school year. This all came about as a result of improvement cycles this year since we have had some incredible data for our early literacy grade levels. Tiffin Elementary has been forging the path with this work. Their first grade teachers will help support teachers from other buildings in learning more. Instructional coaches will also support this work and will be available to help answer questions.
(Physical Layout, Active Sup, and OTR) This session will focus on several, evidence-based methods of increasing student engagement within the classroom. These include setting up the physical environment to maximize engagement, considerations of active supervision across activities, and providing multiple opportunities for students to respond and demonstrate their learning. An understanding of how these practices are connected with trauma-informed strategies will also be embedded within this session.
