Discover how to transform your ELA instruction by using ActivPanels to create interactive and engaging learning experiences. This hands-on professional development session for K-5 teachers explores strategies to enhance foundational literacy skills and writing instruction using tools like Explain Everything, screen captures, and student-driven annotations. You'll participate in grade-specific breakout sessions (K-2 and 3-5) where teacher-leaders will model real classroom practices that make vocabulary, writing, and shared literacy tasks more dynamic. Whether you're working within a Structured Literacy Pathway or a Traditional one, you'll leave with practical ideas for using your ActivPanel to support student engagement, scaffold instruction, and bring your lessons to life.
