This session will support the goal of challenging and supporting each student to excel and be future-ready. This session aims to empower K-8 educators to focus on activities that promote metacognition and creative problem-solving. Drawing on David Dubczak’s Activate Your Genius Mode, we will explore high-leverage, critical thinking practices designed to challenge and foster students' cognitive endurance. Participants will engage with innovative materials to develop future-ready learners. These materials can be immediately scaled for Elementary and Middle School classrooms across all subject areas. Shift your pedagogy from instruction-led to inquiry-driven to ignite student passion, engagement, and innovation.
