21st Century Skills in the Classroom
By Collaborative Educators 3000
The majority of schools continue to emphasize teaching a set of fundamental skills that are out of step with the demands of contemporary society. Learning content alone is insufficient, even if students must gain information. Nowadays, being able to find, assess, and apply information efficiently has become more important than simply being able to recall and regurgitate information.
For today's pupils to succeed in the information era, they must be well prepared. They are joining a workforce that is more mobile and more qualified than ever before, entering a busy, competitive, uncertain world, and constructing careers that encompass a variety of occupations, positions, and skill sets—some of which haven't even been created yet.
This ebook describes in plain terms what the 21st century skills are, and how can they be practically applied in the modern classroom. There are also some suggested activities at the end with practical examples and suggested apps.

Understanding the Common Core Curriculum - A Practical Guide
By Collaborative Educators 3000
43 states have embraced a new set of academic standards called the Common Core State Standards. The purpose of the standards is to increase academic competitiveness in the US, while also preparing pupils for careers and college. These serve as benchmarks for what knowledge and skills in math and language arts kids should possess from kindergarten through their senior year of high school.
Many of the benchmarks are included in the Common Core at every grade level, but there are certain commonalities. Language arts standards emphasize using evidence to support arguments. Pupils will write more viewpoints and fewer personal stories in their writing. They will be required to read more nonfiction as well. The arithmetic standards cover fewer topics in more detail.
The idea behind the Common Core curriculum, also referred to as Common Core State Standards, was straightforward: if all kids were held to the same high academic standards, achievement and college preparation would increase.
This ebook will give you a practical description of the Common Core and the basic concepts behind it.

By Professional Development and Teacher Prep
Professional Development- Engaging Stations
Are you in need of an engaging professional development for your teachers? We expect our teachers to be engaging with their students but we rarely engage our teachers with their learning. Additionally, as teachers, we got away from using hands-on resources in the classroom when COVID-19 happened. Hands-on resources give students a tangible, experiential way for learners to engage with concepts, making abstract ideas more concrete and understandable. By physically manipulating objects or engaging in interactive activities, students can grasp complex concepts more easily and retain information better. Now it is time to refresh our memory on the hands-on resources we can use in the classroom or that we have buried somewhere.
This Canva Presentation is a copy that you can edit and is centered around giving teachers engaging ideas to use for centers or rotations. The professional development is editable and can be altered to fit your teachers’ needs.
Additionally, this presentation can also be downloaded as a PowerPoint or Google Slide. You will go to the share button in Canva and then the download button. After the download button, press the down arrow where the file type is and select the file you want to download it as.
This PD is important because it gives teachers the following to think about:
Varied Teaching Strategies: It introduces teachers to diverse teaching methodologies. Engaging stations often incorporate different activities, catering to various learning styles and preferences. This equips educators with a range of strategies to better engage and reach different types of learners in their classrooms.
Active Learning Techniques: Stations promote active learning, encouraging students to interact, explore, and apply knowledge actively. Educators trained in these techniques can create dynamic, interactive learning environments that stimulate student involvement and participation.
Differentiated Instruction: Stations can be tailored to accommodate different proficiency levels or learning paces within a classroom. Through professional development, teachers learn how to design and implement stations that cater to individual student needs, allowing for more personalized instruction.
Increased Student Engagement: Engaging stations often lead to higher student interest and participation. By providing professional development in this area, teachers can learn strategies to create captivating, interactive lessons that capture students' attention and foster a love for learning.
Encourages Collaboration: Stations often involve group work or collaboration among students. Training teachers in station-based learning encourages them to design activities that promote teamwork, communication, and cooperation among their students.
