    Breaking Down Instructional Silos: Building Literacy, Math, and Future-Ready Skills in Elementary School

    This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Project Lead The Way. The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here. Today’s elementary classrooms are becoming a critical starting point for planting the seeds of future-ready learning. Too often, however, with all of the curricular requirements, there’s limited time for teachers to add one more thing. This edWeb podcast isn’t about adding more. It’s about unlocking more. It explores how breaking down instructional silos and expanding interdisciplinary approaches can help elementary educators strengthen core academic outcomes while building the transferable skills students need for the future. Using an interdisciplinary lens, we look at how STEM-focused literacy and math can harness students’ attention by providing the “why,” and can become powerful entry points for problem solving, collaboration, communication, and early career awareness without overwhelming already stretched-thin teachers. Listeners see how integrated instruction helps students make meaningful connections across subjects, boosts engagement and confidence, and deepens understanding in ELA, math, and science. By the end of this session, listeners are able to: Describe the benefits of interdisciplinary instruction in elementary classrooms and emphasize how interdisciplinary approaches can strengthen literacy and math outcomes while supporting the development of future-ready skillsIdentify strategies for integrating STEM-focused literacy and math that promote problem solving, collaboration, and communication without adding to teachers’ workloadExplore examples of integrated instruction that help students make meaningful connections across ELA, math, and scienceApply practical, time-efficient approaches that build on existing curricula to increase student engagement and confidenceArticulate the rationale and proof points for interdisciplinary learning to support instructional decision making and schoolwide alignmentThis edWeb podcast is of interest to elementary school leaders and district leaders.

    Building Behavioral Services That Reintegrate and Graduate Students: The Path Back

    This edWeb podcast is sponsored by The LEARN Academy. The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here. For many students with significant behavioral needs, the traditional path leads out: out of the classroom, out of the district, and too often, away from a hopeful future. Buckeye Union High School District (BUHSD) in Arizona knew this wasn’t acceptable. Students placed externally rarely came back, and when they did, there was little structured system support to help them transition successfully. In this edWeb podcast, education leaders explore how BUHSD built an in-district behavioral services model that keeps students connected to their schools, communities, and futures. Panelists, including Exceptional Student Services Director Scott Acton, share strategies grounded in 15 years of real-world implementation. You learn: How to shift from punitive discipline toward therapeutic, student-centered approaches that produce lasting behavior changeHow to design reintegration pathways that set students up for success when they return to home campusesWays to align behavioral, academic, and social-emotional supports without a full program overhaulBUHSD’s model produced measurable results: increased reading and math performance, reintegration rates among the highest in Arizona, and graduation rates approaching 90%. This edWeb podcast is of interest to K-12 district leaders, special education directors, directors of student services, and school leaders responsible for behavioral programming.

    The Cost of Getting Literacy Wrong: Long-Term Decisions, Lasting Consequences

    This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Really Great Reading. The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here. Literacy remains one of the most urgent challenges facing districts today. While many schools are investing in curricula and intervention, the real question is not how we achieve isolated gains. The question is how we scale literacy outcomes across entire systems. This edWeb podast examines three elements that consistently drive reading success: Aligned professional learning and high-quality materialsCaring educators who support struggling readersStrong feedback loops that show whether instruction is workingDistrict examples highlight how leaders align instruction, foundational skill building, like strengthening word recognition through oral language development, and use evidence to guide the purchasing and implementation decisions that drive outcomes. When literacy improves, performance across all subjects improves with it. This conversation focuses on the leadership decisions that make that possible. This edWeb podcast is of interest to K-12 teachers, school leaders, district leaders, and education technology leaders. Really Great ReadingWe Do Big Things for Districts.

    Evaluating Purpose-Built Digital Curricula That Drive Outcomes: No More Trial-and-Error

    This edWeb podcast is sponsored by Edmentum. The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here. In an era of growing screen time concerns, K-12 educators face pressure to distinguish between passive, unproductive device use and purposeful edtech that accelerates learning. This edWeb podcast explores how to identify high-quality digital curricula and instructional tools—designed with research-backed principles, supported by evidence, and implemented with intention keeping the educator at the center—that can deliver measurable student outcomes with no need for overuse or misuse. District, school leaders, and state leaders listening to this session learn to identify and implement digital curricula that complement core instruction, address diverse learner needs, and withstand stakeholder scrutiny. Discover what defines high-quality digital tools (rigorous standards alignment, adaptive personalization, educator integration), their proven benefits (improved engagement, attendance, skill mastery), and real-world applications that drive access and opportunity while maintaining academic rigor. Key learning outcomes: Define high-quality digital curricula and evaluate vendor evidence using research standardsUnderstand the key distinctions between purpose-built edtech and consumer toolsExamine real district implementations showing how intentional integration of digital curricula amplifies, rather than replaces, the role and impact of educatorsLearn how to advocate for the resources that will best support your educators and students, and replicate success in your organizationThis edWeb podcast is of interest to K-12 school leaders, district leaders, education technology leaders, and state leaders.

    Just-in-Time Support vs. Intervention: Why the Distinction Matters in MTSS

    This edWeb podcast is sponsored by HMH. The edLeader Panel recording can be accessed here. When the distinction between just‑in‑time support and intervention is unclear, even well‑designed systems can lose coherence—and students can miss critical opportunities for support. This edWeb podcast clarifies the practical differences between the two, why both are essential within a strong RTI/MTSS framework, and how leaders can ensure each is used intentionally and effectively. Listeners explore how time horizon and depth of need should guide instructional decision making, what happens when these distinctions become blurred, and the systems schools need to support both approaches without overwhelming educators or weakening intervention efforts. Dr. Bonnie Cochran, National Director of Innovation and Analytics at HMH, serves as presenter and moderator, joined by district leaders who are leading this work at scale: Serita Dodson, School Improvement Strategist, Frisco ISD (TX)Sarah Jay, Executive Director of Equitable Multi‑Tiered System of Support, Boston Public Schools (MA)Marie Garrido Zoeller, Curriculum Supervisor for English Language Arts, Broward County Public Schools (FL)Together, they share real‑world perspectives on establishing clear decision rules, aligning teams across departments, and building sustainable structures that ensure students receive the right level of support at the right time.
