If you view the recording and would like a CE certificate\, join the Audio-Based Learning and Collaboration community and go to the edWebinar Archives folder to take the CE quiz. \nListening to professionally narrated audiobooks is a great way to prevent the “summer slide.” Children in low-income households fall behind an average of two months in reading during the summer. Summer learning loss accounts for two-thirds of the ninth grade achievement gap in reading between students from low-income households and their higher-income peers. \nIn this edWebinar\, Mary Ann Scheuer\, Teacher Librarian at Berkeley USD\, CA\, presents research findings from a 2016 study looking at the effect of adding a listening component to literacy instruction—in school and at home. She also specifically addresses its impact on student vocabulary\, reading comprehension and motivation to read. The study also found that students listening to audiobooks without paired text attained 58% of their annual reading gain in just ten weeks\, putting them three months ahead of the control students. Mary Ann discusses these and other key findings of the research. \nBeyond the merits of the study\, Mary Ann shares the benefits\, excitement and engagement of students listening to high-interest audiobooks at or above their current reading level that she has experienced first-hand. With new digital technologies\, it’s never been easier to support students on a year-round remote basis. \nThis recorded session is designed for PreK-12 librarians as well as reading coaches\, ELL specialists/teachers\, Title I teachers and administrators\, district librarians\, and classroom teachers. \nAbout the Presenter \nMary Ann Scheuer has 20 years’ experience in California schools\, as an English teacher and a librarian. She has served as an elementary teacher librarian in Berkeley USD since 2013\, creating a new role in this district. As an English teacher\, Mary Ann wrote a school-wide grant to fund audiobooks and regularly used these in her teaching. Now as a librarian\, she has led the way providing streaming access to audiobooks for all elementary students across her school district. She is currently doing action-research to determine the impact of audiobooks on struggling readers. Mary Ann regularly reviews books at her blog\, Great Kid Books. She also contributes to School Library Journal\, Kirkus Reviews and the Association of Children’s Librarians of Northern California.

Research and clinical observations demonstrate that individuals with autism often benefit from the use of visual supports. The Visual Immersion System™ (VIS™)\, created by Dr. Howard Shane and his colleagues from Boston Children’s Hospital\, establishes a robust foundation to address communication deficits. It capitalizes on the enhanced visual processing skills of individuals with autism\, as well as their inherent interest in multimedia. It incorporates visual supports in a meaningful way that help individuals with autism learn to initiate and generate communication\, as opposed to merely reciting scripted language. \nWatch Dr. Shane in this edWebinar to learn about the Visual Immersion System. He also discusses how to enhance communication and expand language by repurposing consumer products/technology to provide Just In Time Communication (JITs). Case examples and resources are presented. Learn: \n\nAn overview of the Visual Immersion System (VIS)\n\nFramework (visual instructional mode\, visual organizational mode\, visual expressive mode)\nScene cues – how can they help?\nGrid displays & scene displays – what’s the difference?\nTeaching language and reducing scripting – going beyond PECS\n\n\nConcepts of Just in Time Communication (JITs)\n\nTips and tools to quickly create and provide communication supports for use in the moment (just in time)\nRepurposing consumer products/technology to provide Just in Time Communication\nQR Codes\nApple Watch\nAmazon Echo\n\n\n\nThis recorded edWebinar will benefit educators\, speech language pathologists\, behavior specialists\, OT\, PT\, music\, art\, and recreation therapists\, and administrators. \n\nAbout the Presenter \nDr. Howard C.

SUMMARY:Discovery Learning for Infants and Toddlers: Treasure Basket Explorations
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Laura Wilhelm\, Ed.D.\, Associate Professor\, Early Childhood Education\, Oklahoma City University\nSponsored by Gryphon House \nWatch the Recording\nIf you attend the live session\, you’ll be emailed a CE certificate within 24 hours of the edWebinar. If you view the recording and would like a CE certificate\, join the Early Learning Book Chats community and go to the edWebinar Archives folder to take the CE quiz. \nPeople who work with older children may view infants and toddlers in terms of what they cannot do yet. Treasure baskets are a supplement to regularly planned curriculum activities that showcase the amazing capabilities of children between 6 and 36 months. These baskets employ heuristic learning which presents opportunities for the child to discover through five (and more) senses. “Heuristic\,” a new term for many of us\, comes from the same root as “eureka\,” which emphasizes discovery learning. These activities highlight how much longer very young children will attend to something when they are intrigued by it. \nIn this edWebinar\, Dr. Laura Wilhelm shares: \n\nHow and why to design treasure baskets with everyday household and natural objects at little or no cost\nWhy plastic mass-manufactured toys are less appealing with their similar temperature and textures\, bright colors\, and sometimes overpowering lights and sounds\nTeachers’ ideas about the best ways to incorporate heuristic activities within existing curriculum for 6- to 36-month-old children\n\nChildcare providers\, directors\, home visitors\, and mentors who work with infants and toddlers will benefit from this edWebinar.

SUMMARY:Emotional Intelligence in ELA and Social Studies: Integrating Social-Emotional Learning into the Curriculum in Ways that Satisfy State Standards
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jonathan C. Erwin\, M.A.\, Independent Educational Consultant\, Senior Faculty Member of the William Glasser Institute\, and Instructor for the Bureau of Education and Research\nSponsored by Free Spirit Publishing \nWatch the Recording\nIf you attended the live session\, you’ll be emailed a CE certificate within 24 hours of the edWebinar. If you view the recording and would like a CE certificate\, join the Social-Emotional Learning\, Positive Behavior\, and Student Achievement community and go to the edWebinar Archives folder to take the CE quiz. \nNearly every educator can think of a student who has the intellectual ability to succeed in school but fails or falls behind because of a lack of social-emotional skills. These students may not be able to focus\, listen\, control impulses\, self-motivate\, or self-regulate\, which naturally prevents them from learning and performing to their full potential. However\, students become totally engaged when they are learning about their favorite subject—themselves. And one of the greatest benefits of integrating social-emotional learning (SEL) with ELA and social studies is that it is student-centered. \nIn this edWebinar\, Jonathan Erwin\, M.A.\, provides a research-based rationale for teaching SEL\, shares lessons that teach specific SEL skills\, and shows how you can use SEL content to satisfy state standards. Leverage Erwin’s 30-plus years in education to learn how SEL can be an excellent vehicle for satisfying the requirements of your state’s ELA standards in addition to improving students’ attitudes and behaviors. This webinar will benefit ELA and social studies teachers grades 3-12\, counselors\, social workers\, and youth empowerment leaders. \nAbout the Presenter \nJonathan C. Erwin\, M.A.\, has been a middle and high school English teacher\, professional development specialist\, college professor\, and director of a federally funded character education program. He currently is an independent educational consultant\, a senior faculty member of the William Glasser Institute\, and an instructor for the Bureau of Education and Research. Jon’s work focuses on providing research-based approaches to teaching\, managing\, counseling\, and training that appeal to intrinsic motivation and help children and adults develop physically\, intellectually\, emotionally\, and socially. \nHis most recent work involves creating a school and classroom culture based on emotional and physical safety\, positive and trusting relationships\, student-centered instruction\, and social-emotional learning (including mindset and grit). Jon is the author of The Classroom of Choice (ASCD\, 2004)\, Inspiring the Best in Students (ASCD\, 2010)\, and The School Climate Solution (Free Spirit Publishing\, 2016).

DESCRIPTION:Presented by Isabel Beck\, Ph.D.\, Author and Professor Emerita of Education in the School of Education at the University of Pittsburgh; and Margaret McKeown\, Ph.D.\, Author and Clinical Professor of Education in the School of Education at the University of Pittsburgh\nSponsored by Abrams Learning Trends \nWatch the Recording\nIf you attended the live session\, you’ll be emailed a CE certificate within 24 hours of the webinar. If you view the recording and would like a CE certificate\, join the Be a Literacy Hero in the K-5 Classroom  community and go to the edWebinar Archives folder to take the CE quiz. \nDid you know: A student’s vocabulary knowledge in the first grade can predict their reading achievement all the way through to their junior year in high school. \nThe impact vocabulary can have on a student’s literacy journey has never been more evident than it is today. A knowledge of rich vocabulary words supports students’ ability to comprehend when reading\, while in turn\, reading comprehension reinforces their attention to language as they deepen their understanding of new texts. \nIn other words\, creating a classroom full of literacy heroes requires instruction that combines robust vocabulary with lessons in comprehension. Watch celebrated authors and distinguished vocabulary experts Dr. Isabel Beck and Dr. Margaret McKeown as they detail this important relationship between vocabulary and comprehension and the effect each has on literacy achievement\, including: \n\nWhat effective vocabulary instruction looks like\nWhat “Tier 2” words are and why they have a higher impact on both vocabulary and comprehension\nWhat the “lexical bar” is and how you can help all students cross it\nThe key differences between “questions” and “queries”\nHow to move students from surface understanding of a text (the “gist”) to a deeper understanding of what they’ve read (the “grist”)\nAnd much more!\n\nK-5 classroom teachers\, reading specialists\, literacy coaches\, administrators\, and librarians as well as K-12 district-level elementary curriculum and instruction directors/coordinators\, elementary reading directors/coordinators\, and elementary remedial reading directors/coordinators are invited to watch this recorded session. \n  \n \nAbout the Presenters \nDr. Isabel Beck and Dr. Margaret McKeown are long-time colleagues at the University of Pittsburgh. Their research on comprehension and vocabulary has been published extensively and was the foundation for their best-selling book\, Bringing Words to Life. Both Dr. Beck and Dr. McKeown have won awards for their contributions to the field of literacy\, including an introduction for each of them into the International Literacy Association’s Reading Hall of Fame. \n  \nJoin the Be a Literacy Hero in the K-5 Classroom community to network with educators\, participate in online discussions\, receive invitations to upcoming edWebinars\, view past edWebinars\, take a quiz to receive a CE certificate for a past edWebinar\, and access free resources. \nWatch the Recording\n Abrams Learning Trends develops innovative Pre-K through Grade 5 supplemental literacy materials that engage children and empower educators.

At one time\, digital storytelling was seen mostly as montages of images and videos set to music and narration. Although today’s classroom and school library applications still include this form\, students\, teachers\, and school librarians can now use an array of approaches to tell digital stories\, including tweets\, mini-videos\, single-image stories\, and “Draw My Life” whiteboard narratives. Through storytelling contexts from science content to poetry and self-reflection\, digital storytelling fosters creativity\, collaboration\, digital literacy\, and critical thinking. This form of content creation aligns with a range of cross-curricular learning objectives and school library standards. \nIn this edWebinar\, Dr. Rebecca J. Morris shares apps and lesson ideas for integrating digital storytelling into curriculum\, with a focus on science topics. Assessment of student learning and practical strategies for facilitating digital storytelling will also be discussed. \nLibrarians and educators are invited to watch this recorded session to learn how to integrate science with storytelling. \nAbout the Presenter \nRebecca J.

SUMMARY:Why the ABC’s Aren’t as Easy as 1-2-3 for Preschoolers
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Laura L. Bailet\, Ph.D.\, Nemours Children’s Health System\nSponsored by Kaplan Early Learning \nWATCH THE WEBINAR RECORDING\nIf you attended the live session\, you’ll be emailed a CE certificate within 24 hours of the webinar. If you view the recording and would like a CE certificate\, join the Classroom Management for Early Learning community and go to the Webinar Archives folder to take the CE quiz. \nFor preschoolers\, learning the ABC’s requires a new way of thinking. They need to learn how to process letters and letter sounds differently and very carefully. Sometimes we use an uppercase letter\, and sometimes a lowercase letter. Letter orientation is critical too. If we flip a “b” one way\, it becomes “d”; if we flip it another way\, it becomes “p” or “q.” This isn’t true for objects that young children play with. Many letters have more than one sound\, further complicating the learning process. \nIn this webinar\, Dr. Laura L. Bailet explores the key reasons that learning the ABC’s can be challenging both for children AND their teachers. Learn how to: \n• Review the ABC challenges\n• Describe developmentally-appropriate strategies to increase ABC knowledge\n• Become familiar with the key benchmarks for this important milestone \nLearn current best practices for enhancing alphabet knowledge in young children and gain new ideas and strategies for your classroom. This webinar is designed for preschool and kindergarten educators\, administrators\, and librarians as well as ESE professionals. \n\nAbout the Presenter \nLaura L. Bailet\, Ph.D.\, is a licensed school psychologist and an assistant professor at the College of Medicine at the Mayo Clinic. She has expertise on a wide range of learning problems\, including dyslexia and autism. Dr. Bailet established and directed the Neurocognitive Assessment Program within the Division of Neurology at Nemours Children’s Clinic\, Jacksonville\, FL for 18 years before creating the Nemours BrightStart! initiative.
