Laying the Foundation - English Year 1 Modules 1-4 Grades 6-12Description: Vertical Teaming has played an important role in our first year and will continue to grow in importance as POD moves forward. In order to further develop and enhance vertical teaming, we would like to invite both pre-AP and AP Math, Science and English teachers to a series of Laying the Foundation (LTF) training sessions. This program is a hands-on, teacher-to-teacher professional development opportunity. We believe that this program will prove to be a great asset to all of you personally and will prove to be an asset to you as you grow and strengthen your pre-AP and ultimately your AP programs.
As part of the training, you will receive LTF materials, access to assessments and resources available on the LTF website, and support from LTF trainers and staff members. Since materials were created by classroom teachers, you will be able to use the resources, materials, and lessons immediately in the classroom to add to the rigor and the consistency of your programs.
