This 2 day training is being conducted by Teaching Strategies, LLC.  In this 2-day session, teachers will be introduced to the components and structure of Teaching Strategies GOLD. Through video clips, activities, and large-group discussions, teachers will explore the progressions of development and learning for children birth through kindergarten, learn how to interpret the corresponding color bands, and apply the GOLD objectives to their observation-based assessments. They will practice using the four-step assessment cycle, evaluating a child's portfolio and developing a conference form to share with families.  By the end of the session, teachers will have the basic skills they need to begin implementing the Teaching Strategies GOLD Assessment Toolkit.  This tool is used for assessment for the Preschool Child Outcomes Summary Form (COSF).  Participants must bring a TS GOLD toolkit with them to the training. 

Lunch will be on your own.
