CLASS in Three Acts: Learn, Practice, Reflect (Pre-K) Part 1 and 2 Deb Norris

Sponsor: Vermont Association for the Education of Young Children (VTAEYC)
Instructor: Nikki Bearor

This engaging virtual 1+1+1 series is designed for Pre-K educators who are new to the CLASS® (Classroom Assessment Scoring System®) tool—an evidence-based framework that supports high-quality teacher-child interactions and plays an important role in Vermont’s QRIS (STARS). In the first session, participants will explore the CLASS® domains and dimensions, watch classroom videos, and identify interaction strategies together. Educators will then return to their programs to observe or try out a selected strategy. In the following sessions, they’ll bring back reflections, share insights, and deepen their understanding of how CLASS® supports everyday practice.
