A workshop that would work for me and a workshop that would challenge me

A workshop that would work for me:  Quick Formative Assessments. 

I walked away from this workshop with over a dozen new formative assessments.  There were a variety of types that could work for pre, during, and/or post lessons as well as cross the content areas.  Since I am a pre-service teacher, I am always looking for resources to use in my future classroom. 

A workshop that would challenge me:  Ekphrastic Expression.

I really enjoyed this workshop.  I have already thought about how to adapt the lesson plans for younger students and plan to use them in the future.  I know this will be challenging for me because I struggle with artistic interpretation and response.  More practice and listening to children’s simple but profound ideas will help!
