✅ Strengthen cross-curricular thinking and planning
✅ Design tasks that deepen student understanding and support diverse learners
✅ Use ChatGPT ethically and effectively as a professional planning partner
LITERACY AS THE BRAIN'S OPERATING SYSTEM
Using ChatGPT to Connect Thinking Across the Curriculum. Designed to help elementary educators explore how to use Ai tools with curriculum like Wit & Wisdom, Eureka Math, and Amplify Science to design story-rich, language-powered experiences that help students build knowledge across subjects—and retain it. Learn how to make every subject a literacy moment.
TEACHING FOR TRANSFER
Using Language and Literacy to Deepen Disciplinary Thinking with ChatGPT. Designed for secondary teachers to help students think, read, and write like scientists, historians, mathematicians, and more. This session helps content-area teachers integrate purposeful literacy practices—without sacrificing depth or time—using tools like Illustrative Mathematics, OpenSciEd, and HMH Into Literature.
WHY THESE ACCELERATORS WORK:
Harness AI to Support Inclusive Instruction. Embrace the digital transformation with AI as your ally. Discover how artificial intelligence can revolutionize the learning experience, providing tailored educational journeys for every student to reach their highest potential.
