Grades 10-12 Extension

In June 2018, the NYS Regents approved a new certification extension pathway for educators interested in extending their existing certification to address the growing shortage of special education teachers in NYS. This 45-hour course will help teachers analyze the NYS Next Generation Standards focusing on Reading, Writing, and Math at the 10th - 12th-grade level and develop lesson plans that use evidence-based and developmentally appropriate instructional practices to support student achievement. Teachers will apply their knowledge of this age group, current learning research, and technology to demonstrate facility in designing engaging lessons and developing a classroom culture that supports social, emotional, cognitive, and linguistic growth for all students.

The content of this course will be delivered through synchronous meetings online and assignments in Google Classroom (a personal Google account is required to access course materials). Fulfills NYS requirements for SWD Grades 10-12 certification extension.
