Deep Dive - Lessons That Inspire: Deeper Instruction

Friday July 3, 2026 9:00am - 11:30am PDT

Deeper Learning needs to happen all day long—not just in projects or special events. We will consider frameworks for and examples of Deeper Instruction: Lessons that challenge, engage, and empower students to go deeper in every lesson in every subject. We will examine frameworks for Deeper Instruction, and much of our time will be spent analyzing videos of Deeper Lessons across a range of classrooms, grade levels, subject areas, and contexts. We will make connections to our own practices, and culminate in preparing Teaching Posters to share our learning.
