The Power of Clarity: Designing Units to Drive Learning

July 29–30
8:30 AM – 3:00 PM at TCDE, 1135 Lincoln Street, Red Bluff

When educators share a clear understanding of what students must learn and how they will demonstrate it, instruction becomes more focused, collaborative, and effective. Join us for a two-day learning experience where participants will:

Unpack standards to identify essential learning

Create clear, student-friendly learning targets

Align assessments with daily instruction

Design effective common formative assessments

Analyze student evidence collaboratively

Plan timely supports, interventions, and enrichment opportunities

This work supports high-quality, best-first instruction grounded in standards and aligned curriculum. Through collaborative planning and data-informed decision-making, teams will strengthen coherence across classrooms and grade levels while responding effectively to individual student needs.

Who should attend? Teachers, instructional coaches, site and district leaders, and collaborative teams. Ideal for teachers—whether individual “singletons,” grade-level teams, or content-area departments—who want dedicated, facilitated time with structured guidance on the steps needed to intentionally incorporate intervention and enrichment, and leave with a fully developed, standards-aligned unit plan complete with learning targets, aligned assessments, and a clear pacing guide to launch the school year strong.

More details and registration information coming soon!

Are you working in or with a high-need rural school district or school and interested in supporting teaching science in a way that meets standards by ensuring students do engineering and science?

Do you want to include technology, engineering, and coding in your school's middle school science classroom with easy-to-use activities and get support doing so?

Are science teachers at your local rural school looking for ongoing NGSS (CA) or TEKS (TX) support in the context of using hands-on activities with a student-tested Web App and inexpensive materials to ensure students learn scientific and engineering practices, including computational thinking in science classrooms?

Rural schools with 8th-grade science classes are invited to join a WestEd study investigating the impact of the STEMACES program on students' science achievement. The study also looks to develop effective tools and support for teachers who are delivering STEM+C curricula. Thanks to evidence of improved science learning in its Learning by Making course (see WestEd study), Sonoma State, in partnership with Angelo State University, has been awarded an Education Innovation and Research grant to refine STEMACES for broader regional impact and cost effectiveness.

Official Transcripts

Transcript information can be found on the Registrar's webpage. Teachers requesting transcripts for salary increments should note the Special Instructions and review the processing outline to ensure timely receipt of transcripts.

If you wish to place a transcript order ahead of grades being finalized, select 'After Grades Are Posted' to ensure that your summer grades are listed on your official transcript.

Please note: 800-level courses do not apply to degree requirements or credential requirements* and are not calculated in a GPA. Any completed professional development units (800-level courses) will reflect as units attempted but not earned on your official transcript, with a grade of "CR" to indicate successful completion of the units. For additional information, please refer to this letter from the University Registrar.

Your grades can be viewed online through the Chico State Portal. If you have not activated a portal account, follow the steps below. You will need to enter your date of birth and the nine-digit Chico State Portal ID number you received with your registration confirmation.

Step 1. Go to the " Claim Your Account" page
Step 2. Enter your Chico State ID & date of birth
Step 3. Answer the security questions
Step 4. Your account should be activated
Step 5. Enter the Student Center
Step 6. Select "Grades" under Academic History
Step 7. Select the term you wish to view grades

If you have already created a Chico State Portal account, you can log in with your username (generally your first initial and last name) and the unique password you've already created.

** Fees are subject to change.

* These courses are designed to meet objectives not served by established graduate and undergraduate courses. However, in exceptional cases and with the approval of the appropriate department chair and the dean of your school, they may be applied toward degree and credential programs for which such courses are deemed acceptable. Determination of the acceptability of these courses for degree and credential credit will depend primarily upon course content and approach. If you are considering using these courses for credential or degree purposes, consult with the appropriate department before registering.

If your elementary school is in California and you would like a FREE visit from the Mobile Dairy Classroom, please visit our online scheduler.

If your school is located out of our regular travel zones, virtual assembly options are available for you.

The Mobile Dairy Classroom Assembly brings agriculture right to your school teaching students new vocabulary, the anatomy of a cow, how milk goes from the cow to the table, and the importance of healthy eating and physical activity.

There will be two 45-minute assemblies:

45 minutes for lower elementary grades, K-3, focusing on vocabulary, life cycles and anatomy concepts

45 minutes for upper elementary grades, 4-6, explaining the ruminant digestive system, lactation cycle, agriculture technology and milk processing with proper vocabulary

The cow stays in her classroom trailer for the whole assembly.

The assembly is an outdoor event and will take place in the morning, so make sure your students bring jackets if the weather is cool.

Chairs are not recommended.

This assembly is intended for whole school participation.

The assembly must be held in the morning and in an outdoor area that can accommodate a 35-foot truck and trailer combination. No electricity is needed.
Please note the Mobile Dairy Classroom assembly is only available in California.
If you have any questions, please contact [email protected] .

Thank you so much for the opportunity for our students to experience "a real cow" as they said! ... It was a wonderful experience for all!
