English III STAAR End of Course Training

In this two-day professional development session, participants will explore instructional strategies focused on preparing students for success in high school English courses. The session will specifically address English III but will also include a brief overview of the structure of the STAAR English I, II, and III End-of-Course assessments that emphasizes the relationships among standards, instruction, and assessment. Participants will practice reading strategies designed to deepen understanding of text and learn strategies for crafting written responses.

The session will also include access to online resources and tools for teaching using Project Share, the statewide online interactive platform. Training will be offered in both face-to-face and online formats.

The registration fee for this training has been waived due to TEA funding through the TEKS PD grant. 

Registration will begin at 8:30 am and the sessions will begin promptly at 9:00 am each day (Unless noted otherwise). Due to requirements from TEA, attendance at these workshops is strictly monitored. You must be present the entire session, from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm, all days required, in order to receive full credit. If you cannot attend the full session, we suggest registering for another session at a time when you will be able to attend the entire workshop.

Stipends are no longer available for TEKS PD sessions.
