Have you ever felt like, "I am asking the questions, but then get crickets," or think, "There has to be a better way to get students to (go deeper into content, speak more, listen better, or ???)."? In this session, we will unpack five key strategies that shift classrooms from good to great. Participants will leave with key takeaways that increase student interactions and teacher excitement-- and can be implemented starting on day one of school.
