Skyline 101
Develop an understanding of Skyline’s key instructional shifts and core components, and how they empower you to enrich your students’ learning experiences. We encourage you to review the schedule & register as soon as possible! Skyline 101 is required in-person training for teachers & coaches new to Skyline.

  • Explore the core components of the Skyline curriculum and how these support the CPS Instructional Core Vision
  • Develop a foundational understanding of Skyline digital learning ecosystem

Unit Internalization
Plan for successful implementation of the upcoming Skyline unit, including support for students with disabilities and multilingual learners, and using assessments and the Checkpoint platform effectively. Unit internalization is highly recommended for teachers and coaches new to Skyline.

During these sessions you will:
  • Study the unit to deeply understand (1) the big ideas students are expected to learn, (2) the arc of learning over the unit, and (3) how students will be assessed summatively and formatively along the way
  • Tailor instruction to meet the needs of students with unfinished learning, students with disabilities, and multilingual learners
  • Internalize the instructional practice shifts embedded in the curriculum by experiencing a lesson immersion

ABOUT ME. I am Hispanic and have experienced the isolation of being an immigrant to the USA many years ago.

INTERESTS. After much education and years of teaching in urban schools, I would love to talk about modernizing curricula as well as the structure of the schools to bring equity in curriculum and equal representation in the school culture reflecting the demographics of our students and families. I am also interested in engaging families that have no voice in the schools, especially for students and families who are not familiar with the education system and have difficulty supporting their children. Of course, I am also interested in science news, activities, good phenomena, great practices, fair assessment for students, and how teachers are assessed.

Thanks for the opportunity to have an open conversation with other educators.
