HV RBERN New Workshop And Partner Events

We hope your school year is off to an incredible start!
 
In order to better serve our region, the NYS Hudson Valley Regional Bilingual Education Resource Network (HV RBERN) is gathering data to inform our grant-funded professional development initiatives.

We kindly request that you take a moment to complete this short survey (https://goo.gl/forms/996x3ZWLZqNYRb8v1). Our intent is to gauge your professional development needs as they relate to supporting English Language Learners (ELLs) in our region. In addition, if you received HV RBERN support or attended our workshops during the 2017-2018 school year, we ask that you please rate your level of satisfaction with the HV RBERN, as well as provide feedback on our performance. (If you completed the survey in June or over the 2018 summer, thank you! This is the same survey you completed previously.)

Your responses will assist us in providing better services to meet your needs. Please feel free to forward this survey to other educators in your district. We appreciate your assistance!

We’re happy to announce a new HV RBERN workshop: 
A Teacher’s Practical Guide to Migrant Students, Trauma, & Social Emotional Learning
11/7/18, Rockland BOCES, 9:00 am-3:00 pm
When children are impacted by stress and trauma, supports must be provided to develop various skills in order to even begin to tackle the aftermath of these experiences. This workshop will build participants’ awareness of the various traumas and stresses that can affect many of our students, specifically migrant students. We will identify practical classroom strategies for incorporating social emotional learning to support both teachers and students. To register in MLP please click here.
