IHEPO Book Study

We are pleased to offer an ongoing Book Study during the 2016-17 school year led jointly by IHEPO and the District.  The Book Study will include a series of three books (approximately 50 pages each) and discussion meetings along with job embedded study.  The books come from an ASCD series targeting rigor and challenge within the regular classroom:

Freedom to Fail: How do I foster risk-taking and innovation in my classroom?  Andrew K. Miller

Fostering Grit: How do I prepare my students for the real world?  byThomas R. Hoerr

A Differentiated Approach to the Common Core: How do I help a broad range of learners succeed with a challenging curriculum?

 by Carol Ann Tomlinson

You can earn one or two Ashland University credits by attending the discussion meetings, trying ideas discussed, logging job embedded hours and sharing student evidence,  The three meeting dates are November 8th - after school, January 10th - after school or February 17th from 12-2 and March 14th -after school.
