🧠 GT Credit Sessions Available (sessions that are orange = GT)
This session, led by the Special Education Coordinator Team, is designed to support campus leaders in understanding how specially designed instruction (SDI) can be effectively implemented through the workshop model. Participants will explore how SDI is intentionally planned, delivered, and adjusted to meet the unique needs of students with disabilities within a structured instructional framework. The session will highlight key components of the workshop model—including mini-lessons, guided practice, independent work time, and small group instruction—and how each provides opportunities for meaningful SDI. Campus leaders will gain practical insight into what strong SDI looks like in the classroom, how teachers can differentiate and scaffold instruction in real time, and how to monitor and support ongoing adjustments based on student progress. Additionally, the session will explicitly connect SDI practices to the Texas Teacher Evaluation and Support System (T-TESS), helping administrators identify look-fors aligned to domains such as planning, instruction, and differentiation.
