SUMMARY:“Plot Power: Mapping Stories that Move with Lit C.R.E.W.”
DESCRIPTION:Join us on December 10th in person at the ExpandED Schools Office\,  218 W. 40th Street\, 12th Floor. New York\, NY 10018\, from 9:00 am -12:00 pm for a dynamic work session focused on plot.  \nPlot is the backbone of every story—the sequence of events that builds tension and resolution. Understanding plot helps students see how stories are structured and why certain events matter. \nThis session will focus on: \n\nVocabulary – key terms like exposition\, climax\, and resolution.\nBuilding Background Knowledge – connecting familiar stories and media to plot structure.\nSkill Building – guiding students in mapping and crafting plots that keep readers engaged.\n\n  \nPlease note: Registration will close on Thursday\, December 4th. All attendees must register.

SUMMARY:Lit C.R.E.W. Makeup Training
DESCRIPTION:The Lit C.R.E.W. Makeup Training is an in-person professional development experience designed to help educators implement the Lit C.R.E.W. instructional model with clarity and confidence. Participants engage in the whole session flow\, including Connect\, Read to Research\, Explore\, and Wrap-Up. The training highlights how to practice building background knowledge\, intentional vocabulary\, facilitate purposeful reading through research questions\, and guide small-group exploration focused on theme\, character\, or setting. Literacy Educators will also learn how to utilize Lit C.R.E.W.’s literacy-through-the-arts approach\, integrating visual art\, digital media\, journalism\, and performing arts to deepen comprehension and expression. By the end of the training\, educators leave with practical tools\, facilitation strategies\, and a clear roadmap for supporting student literacy\, creativity\, and critical thinking. \nAs a reminder\, Literacy Educators have a contractual obligation to complete the Lit C.R.E.W. training provided by ExpandED. If a Literacy Educator missed the initial training or has not yet completed a Lit C.R.E.W. introduction\, they must attend this session. \n  \nLocation: 218 West 40th Street\, 12th Floor\, New York\, NY 10018 \n Lunch will be served
