Welcome to Pasco’s 10th Anniversary Instructional Coaching Conference. We are offering our 20th conference over the last decade and am thankful that you have attended, presented and chose to be a part of our mission to grow and develop outstanding Instructional Coaches.
We want to train and retain our newest staff while working with all staff to improve content and curricular implementation that ensures high rates of student growth and proficiency. This year we have doubled down on coaching around content and aiming our supports at moving student outcomes. Please enjoy your day of learning at the coaching conference, visit our sponsors and snacks in the breakroom, and select the sessions that will fill your professional bucket.
We will use your registration schedule and completed surveys after each session to track your attendance and award your professional learning credits. Thanks in advance for completing the feedback forms for each session you attend.
Focus Analytics is an inspiring platform that empowers data-driven decision-making through targeted reports, enhancing teaching and learning. We will explore this platform and highlight essential reports that coaches can utilize to provide strategic support, refine instructional practices, and significantly improve student outcomes. By harnessing these insights, coaching efforts can become more purposeful and aligned with the vision of school improvement.
Disciplinary literacy emphasizes literacy WITHIN the content area. Content area literacy, on the other hand, emphasizes common strategies to be used ACROSS content areas. How can we leverage both concepts to design lessons for students so they will be able to process and communicate their knowledge through writing.
In this session, we will look at using Beanstack to reignite a love of reading and build strong reading habits among your students. You'll leverage insights, leaderboards, and reports to view data. Learn how to streamline and enhance the incentives you use to motivate your students using Beanstack's rewards and drawings. And get inspired by real-world examples of how our school partners leverage these tools to grow their reading culture.

Creating a culture of coaching by developing a shared understanding of expectations for high-quality instruction. Identify, define and prioritize look-fors, establish criteria for tiers of support, and use evidence to monitor implementation and impact of coaching. This session provides coaches with awesome examples of real world artifacts and systems in a turn around school.
