ECSD Elementary Summer Summit: Flourishing in Hope – Growing Toward Optimal Learning Join us on August 26 for a day of connection, inspiration, and deep learning. With over 40 sessions featuring classroom-ready resources, high-impact strategies, and engaging lessons across all subject areas—including the brand-new Social Studies curriculum—this year’s Summit will help you start the year with confidence and purpose. Explore the schedule below and plan your path toward flourishing in your practice and fostering optimal learning for every student.
Get ready to break down the buzzwords and build up your confidence! In this session, we’ll demystify the Knowledge, Understanding, and Skills & Procedures (KUSPs) that shape Alberta’s new curriculum. You’ll explore how KUSPs drive planning, how they connect across subject areas, and how to turn them into meaningful, manageable learning for your students.
Whether you're brand new to the curriculum or just need a refresher, this session will leave you saying, “I get it now!”—and maybe even cracking a smile along the way.
