PE and Health Teachers were treated to some great professional development this week. Adapted PE teacher Zachary Johnson showed teachers how he adapts PE for his special needs students and gave them suggestions for doing the same. 2025 National SHAPE Teacher of the Year, Brad Hunter, joined us to introduce the APE bucket and the schools left with APE buckets of their own! Finally, Luke Hollis, MSDE PE Specialist came to present some skills-based PE instruction on PE Gymnasium Classroom Climate and structure. This is going to yield some great instruction this year for our students! #WeAreWorcester

Thank you so much to Dr. Lisa Stuart Whitehead, National Art Education Association's Supervisor of the Year, for coming to work with our Art Teachers this week for PD. She presented on how AI can still help our students maintain and develop creativity and studio habits of mind, if used properly! Three of our amazing teachers, Lindsey, Mary Beth and Heather also presented to our teachers on helping students learn to better speak about and write about their artwork. Using the EET (Expanding Expression Tool), teachers can help students analyze their art more thoroughly and communicate the expressions and intentions of their work purposefully and articulately. #ArtsAreAliveInWorcester @MSDEFineArts
