Program: School Library System

Audience: Library Media Specialists

Dates: 10/7/2024

Join LILRC when we welcome novelist Raj Tawney to discuss his Long Island based middle grade novel, All Mixed Up. "New York Times essayist, Raj Tawney, delivers a gripping story of a multi-ethnic American boy who forges a complex friendship with a Pakistani immigrant in the wake of 9/11. It's 2002--less than one year after the September 11th attacks-- and sixth-grader Kamal Rao is tackling a brave new world of challenges, including figuring out who he really is and how he fits in. Even with New York City in its backyard, the suburban town where he lives is anything but open-minded. That means Kamal - frequently picked on and feeling ostracized -- usually spends his time alone, making mud pies in the backyard or cooking recipes with his mom and grandma from his family's three cultures. Then, one day, a Pakistani immigrant named Jaz arrives at school, entering Kamal's life and challenging his sluggish movement through the world. As the two boys forge a friendship over their love of exploring the outdoors and eating good food, the newcomer begins to show Kamal how being "different" isn't a bad thing at all. For the first time, a fire is lit within Kamal - but what will happen when questions of Jaz's origins and his intentions begin to come into question at school and in their town? Will Kamal-- now on the cusp of discovering who he really is and who he wants to be -- risk his own safety and his family's trust to help his new friend, someone he barely knows at all? Based on the author's personal life experiences, an insightful middle-grade novel from a fresh voice in children's fiction that will be felt long after the last page." Presented by LILRC.

40. Preventing the Meltdown Understanding Environmental Factors Affecting Behavior IN PERSON presented by Michelle Levy - 8:30-2:30pm

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 4/29/2025

Starting Today

A common mistake made by schools is to assume that problematic student behaviors exist primarily within in the child and underestimate the degree to which external environmental factors impact student academic and behavioral performance. The fields of education and human behavior have long recognized the complex nature of student behavior and its relationship to the child's learning environment Understanding this relationship and the presence of these factors helps educators and clinicians become more effective in their analysis and development of strategies to respond to behaviors which negatively impact student success. By examining the environment, staff can use this knowledge to manipulate and alter the conditions which serve as triggers to the challenging behaviors thereby improving the learning environment for struggling learners and improving a positive classroom environment for all. Audience: Administrators, clinicians, support staff, teachers Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 Consortium seat. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 4/30/2025

Starting Soon

Audience: Grades 6-12, ELA and all content areas The research is in, improving reading improves writing, and improving writing improves reading. Based on the work of Dr. Nonie K. Lesaux's Literacy Briefs on The Science of Reading, Tim Shanahan's research, and Steve Graham's and Michael Hebert's Report from the Carnegie Foundation, this workshop will emphasize the connections between reading and writing in both English and content area classrooms. As we have been working diligently to improve both abilities in our classrooms, research connects the two consistently and in a variety of ways to improve both. In this interactive workshop, teachers will explore some of the research and practical and efficient ways of applying what they learn to their classrooms. Even though we understand better that reading and writing are reciprocal processes that help students learn, teachers find it challenging to help students use the skills in one to improve skills in the other. By exploring research related to The Science of Reading as well as the thoughts of experts in literacy, we can develop lessons and units that combine reading and writing to improve both skills across the disciplines. In this interactive workshop, participants will review research regarding The Science of Reading and Reading/Writing Connections, discuss these connections, and walk away with skills and ideas that will help their students improve both reading and writing skills in ELA and other content areas. Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 Consortium seat. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.

Program: Suffolks Edge Teachers Center

Dates: 5/14/2025 to 6/4/2025

*ZOOM LINK WILL BE SENT THE DAY BEFORE* Encouraging student voices within a school is key to creating a sense of emotional safety-and leads to greater academic motivation. Fostering a student voice means more than encouraging learners to speak up or share their opinions. It's about creating a school culture that encourages students to be individuals, express and challenge themselves, and contribute to the school community. In schools that make room for student voice, students feel valued for who they are. And when teachers listen to students and are willing to learn from them, students feel respected. This course is designed to empower students to discover and express their unique voices within their school community. Through a series of engaging activities, discussions, and projects, students will explore the concept of student voice, develop essential communication skills, and learn to advocate for themselves and others. By the end of this course, students will have a deeper understanding of their own values and beliefs, and they will be equipped with the tools and confidence to make a positive impact on their classrooms and school environment.

88. Redefining Classroom Management Through Creativity

Program: Suffolks Edge Teachers Center

Dates: 5/21/2025 to 6/4/2025

Traditional classroom management is often associated with maintaining control, but true classroom harmony comes from eliminating stress rather than enforcing strict rules. This workshop challenges educators to rethink their approach, focusing on how creativity can transform classroom dynamics into a more engaging, productive, and enjoyable experience for both teachers and students. We will explore the root causes of stress in the classroom-boredom, invisibility, and discomfort-and discuss how innovative teaching methods can help reduce these stressors. Educators will learn creative strategies such as improvisational activities, collaborative storytelling, and movement-based learning to foster an environment of curiosity and connection. Participants will also examine the balance between structure and spontaneity, ensuring that moments of laughter and interaction enhance, rather than disrupt, student engagement. By the end of the session, teachers will leave with practical techniques that encourage student participation, create a sense of belonging, and make classroom management feel less like control and more like joyful collaboration. This workshop is ideal for educators seeking a fresh, creative approach to fostering a positive and low-stress learning environment.

95. One Size Does Not Fit All - Adapting Instruction to Address Behavior IN PERSON presented by Michelle Levy - 8:30-2:30pm

Program: Professional Development

Dates: 5/28/2025

Research has shown that curricular and instructional adjustments are important components of positive behavior supports that lead to the reduction of problem behavior while promoting student success. When thinking about responding to challenging student behavior, educators need to consider how instruction and learning is impacting those behaviors. The provision of multiple research based opportunities to access, engage and respond to academic tasks in ways that meet their needs helps students decrease feelings of frustration, increase their successful access to content and promote academic engagement while at the same time providing a positive learning environment. Participants will learn how to adapt instructional strategies that meet individual needs while conducting whole group lessons. Strategies presented will be related to what is taught, how content is taught and how students can demonstrate their learning. Differentiation and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) strategies will be discussed. All strategies are applicable for both general education and special education student populations. These approaches can also be used as interventions and accommodations addressing academic and behavioral needs within specially designed instruction (SDI), be included in a well-developed IEP and can also serve as effective interventions in a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP). Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. Can use 1 Consortium seat. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.
