allowing the essence of the image to be shown rather than simply a copy of it.

teachers from each of the four disciplines. Each training will begin with a joint session for all fine arts teachers covering
common issues such as the National Core Arts Standards, disciplinary literacy, and state requirements for arts education.
Breakout sessions in individual disciplines of music, visual art, and theater and dance will follow, and teachers will unpack
discipline-specific frameworks and participate in cross-walking and lesson planning . A team of facilitators (one in each
discipline) will provide the instruction.

Subject(s): Language Arts
Audience(s):
Description:
Dynamic Indicators of Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS, 6th Edition and DIBELS Next) comprise a set of procedures and
measures for assessing the acquisition of early literacy and reading skills from kindergarten through sixth grade. These
measures allow teachers to assess student development of phonological awareness, letter knowledge, decoding, fluency,
and comprehension. In addition, DIBELS/DIBELS Next measures are measures of fluency and automaticity of each skill.
By looking at students’ success rates on the DIBELS/DIBELS Next measures, teachers can interpret the effectiveness of
classroom instruction, identify students who are at risk for difficulties with literacy acquisition , and plan accordingly.
Participants will learn how to interpret DIBELS/DIBELS Next scores and plan their next instructional steps toward moving
students to proficiency in the foundational skills they must acquire in order to be successful readers.

Children need many and varied experiences with counting to learn
•which numbers come next (and before),
•how these number sequences are related to the objects in front of them,
•how to keep track of which ones have been counted, and
•which objects still need to be counted.
Experience with counting provides a solid foundation for future experience with addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
division (National Research Council, 2001). This 1-day session provides a rationale for why and a guide (activities) for how
to have children count objects all school year long.

246543 - 246544 DSC Magnificent Methods of Matisse! (ART TEACHERS ONLY)
Subject(s): Fine Arts
Audience(s): K-12
Description:
We will examine the methods that Matisse used in his art , discuss how to teach them in the classroom, and create our
own Matisse Style Art. If Matisse had a slogan, it might have been, “Minimal Detail; More Impact!” Matisse is known as
the Master of Color. His use of color creates an emotional response in the viewer, so we will explore ways to help the kids
we teach to do the same! Matisse’s work is also very influential in today’s design , so we’ll look at where we see his
influence and how our students can use it too. Then we’ll use what we learn to create our own Bold and Powerful ART !

244540 - 244545 DSC Bits & Pieces: Developing an Understanding of Fractions (GR 3–6)
Subject(s): Mathematics
Audience(s): 3-5,6,ParaProfessionals
Description:
This 6-day institute (4 summer days with 2 follow-up days in the fall) is comparable to Teachers Development Group’s
Extending Children’s Mathematics Institute (also known as ECM or CGI for upper elementary). This is a description from
their registration brochure:
Extending Children’s Mathematics was developed by the Cognitively Guided Instruction (CGI) research and development
group to extend the ideas of CGI to third through sixth grade students. Over twenty-five years of CGI research has shown
that students learn with un¬derstanding if and only if new concepts are connected to what they already know. This Institute
is devoted to studying how students’ learning of computation with large numbers , fractions, decimals and algebraic
think¬ing can be connected to what they already understand about whole number operations. What teachers learn in this
institute enhances how they use any curriculum or resource materials.
In this Institute you will learn to:
•Analyze the connections between whole number operations and fractions, decimals, and algebra
•Assess your students’ understanding of these concepts
•Design problems to build the bridge between students’ current understanding and your specific learning goals
•Facilitate the discussion of mathematical ideas in a manner that engages all learners at the same time as it encourages
the development of more sophisticated understanding
Participants will each receive a free copy of the book Extending Children’s Mathematics : Fractions and Decimals by Susan
Empson and Linda Levi, director of Teachers Development Group (TDG). Days 5-6 of this institute will be determined on the
final day of the summer session.
For more information on this workshop call Cindy McAfee at 870-246-3077. Please visit our website at
