| Training Description: |
Designed for experienced GOLD users, this advanced in-person lab session guides teachers through the process of using assessment data to plan instruction and share children’s progress with families and professionals involved in development and learning. Teachers will practice using sample data for short- and long-term planning; explore strategies for communicating children’s progress in a meaningful way; and practice generating, interpreting, and explaining each of the major reports in GOLD. Participants will focus on using Teaching Strategies GOLD resources to promote positive teacher–family relationships and explore how these additional features support their program. Note that participants should have at least 6-18 months of experience using GOLD and already completed their first checkpoint. For Grow NJ Kids Programs ONLY. Parking available in adjacent lot.
