PowerPoint and Facilitator's Guide (Last Update March 19, 2015)

  • PowerPoint Presentation - This file may take several minutes to download (2-4 minutes). The Director's video is embedded on slide 4.

Facilitator's Guide

  • Facilitator's Guide - This PDF file is the facilitator's guide that provides step-by-step instructions for delivering the professional development session.

Director's Video

  • Director's Message Video - This is a backup plan should the embedded video on slide 4 not play properly when the PowerPoint presentation is being shown.  If problems occur while playing the video directly from the PowerPoint, completely download this video mp4 file, save it in a preferred location on the local computer being used during the professional development session. Note: This file may take a few minutes to download. During the live session, simply minimize the PowerPoint presentation when you reach slide 4, play the video from the location where it is saved, and then resume the PowerPoint presentation after you have shown the video. Again, this is only a backup plan should the embedded video in the PowerPoint presentation (slide 4) does not play properly.
