5f. Implements knowledge and skills learned in professional development in the teaching and learning process. It is important that we, as educators, incorporate our professional development into the classroom. Treeline Elementary School utilizes the HD Word program for all of the second grade students. It is a well designed Phonics program that teaches these vital skills in a new and innovative way. Prior to the start of the school year, my mentor and I received training on how to appropriately administer this curriculum. We use the resources almost daily and have since received additional trainings and support. I have found this program to be very beneficial for our struggling readers.
