Over the past two days, Hillside Public Schools teachers delved into the SAMR (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition) model while exploring how @apple technology can be used to strengthen curriculum and pedagogy. They discovered effective ways to ignite creativity, foster innovation, and design lessons that not only redefine learning but also ensure accessibility and engagement for all students! Thank you to Dr. Kumar, Supervisor of Instructional Technology, and Vice-Principals Guilford and Budha for facilitating such an engaging professional development experience grounded in the principles of universally designed learning!

Teachers also had the opportunity to dive into a lesson of their choice for this school year, sparking rich discussions on how Prisms can deepen understanding and bring complex concepts to life. A huge shoutout to our guest speaker, Jessenia, for supporting such engaging and forward-thinking professional development, as well as to Supervisors Ms. Corona and Dr. Kumar!

Hillside Public Schools' K–3 Climate Literacy Pilot Teachers are kicking off an exciting year as part of the New Jersey Department of Education (@newjerseydoe) Climate Literacy Grant! Mr. Stuart Newman, Bureau Chief of the Bureau of Recycling & Planning from the County of Union Department of Engineering, Public Works & Facilities Management, shared an engaging overview of sustainability and climate change topics that are especially relevant to Union County! Our teachers then collaborated to design student-led resilience projects that will empower students to take action throughout the year. Many thanks to Mr. Newman and the NJDOE for making this project possible and helping our youngest learners become leaders for a more sustainable future! @unioncountynj
