Welcome back! We’ll begin Day 2 with a recap from Day 1 and an inspirational message led by the GYTO Team.

Presented by Amelia Capotosta

It’s game time and your small group instruction is about to go pro! In this fast-paced, sports-themed session, Coach Amelia is taking the field as your lead strategist, ready to help you build winning small groups that drive results and keep every player in the game. Just like any championship team, standout small group instruction depends on precision, intentional plays, and in-the-moment adjustments and she’s here to guide you through your own playbook for success.

From scouting reports (informal assessments) to building your starting lineup (flexible, dynamic groups), Amelia will show you how to:

🏈 Call the Right Plays: Use informal data and observations to identify student needs and form goal-driven groups.
🏀 Run Effective Drills: Implement high-impact, research-based strategies and activities that keep engagement high and learning focused.
⚽ Stay in the Zone: Create smooth systems for managing group rotations, materials, and timing so your practice runs like a well-oiled machine.
⚾ Make Mid-Game Adjustments: Keep your groups flexible and responsive by using ongoing data to shift instruction as students grow.

This isn’t just a training—it’s your coaching clinic for leading small groups that truly perform. Walk away with a playbook full of ready-to-use strategies, easy systems, and the confidence to lead your team to victory—one small group at a time.

Ready to lead like a pro and make your small groups the MVPs of your classroom? Let’s hit the field and make it happen!

Two, four, six, eight—what do we appreciate? Strategic, student-centered differentiation! If you're ready to level up your instructional game and meet every learner right where they are, then let’s huddle up and make it happen!

In this high-energy session, Coach LaNesha will lead you through the ultimate differentiation training camp. You’ll learn how to design flexible, targeted instruction that meets a range of student needs—whether you're working on enrichment, remediation, or skill reinforcement.

Here’s the truth: differentiation doesn’t have to be complicated to make a huge impact on the field. With the right plays in your back pocket, you can adjust on the fly and drive meaningful gains for every learner—without burning out.

We’ll break down the X’s and O’s of planning purposeful tasks, collecting meaningful data, and creating learning environments that feel personalized, intentional, and wildly effective—because one-size-fits-all just doesn’t win championships.

We’ve got data—yes, we do! And we’re using it to draft winning plays for every learner. So grab your whistle, lace up, and get ready to build your Differentiation Playbook—because great teaching isn’t luck, it’s strategy.

We’ll spend the lunch break discussing ways to implement this program into your school buildings.

Presented by Hope King

Strap on your sneakers, grab your clipboard, and get ready to run the ultimate engagement offense—because in this high-energy session, we’re calling the plays that actually move the needle. Engagement isn’t about fluff or filler—it’s about building a starting lineup of strategies that captivate attention, boost retention, and drive results.

Coach Hope King is taking the field to show you how to design intentional, standards-based instruction that sparks curiosity, fuels motivation, and keeps students leaning in and learning from the first whistle to the final buzzer. We’re breaking down what it really takes to create an electric classroom culture—one where kids are all in, behavior management is proactive, and every minute of instruction counts.

You’ll leave this session with:

• A winning playbook of engagement strategies that are rooted in brain science and real classroom results

• Techniques to transform passive learning into active participation

• Creative, practical routines and hooks that make learning stick

• Ways to coach your students into becoming players in their own success story

Because here’s the truth: you don’t have to choose between fun and focus, or joy and rigor. The best classrooms have both. This is where energy meets intention—and that’s where the magic (and the growth) happens.

So suit up—because your classroom is your stadium, and it’s time to play to win.

This powerful, guided workshop will help you reflect, plan, and take strategic action based on what you’ve learned during your time at GYVTO. It’s time to move from inspiration to implementation!

In your own personal GYVTO PLC, you’ll revisit key strategies, tools, and insights from the GYVTO Conference sessions to ensure that the energy, practices, and ideas don’t stay at the conference—but instead become the foundation for meaningful, lasting impact in your classroom. With intentional reflection and goal setting, you’ll create an action plan tailored to your students, your instructional goals, and your vision of excellence—because your students deserve nothing less.

You’ll leave this experience with renewed purpose, a clear instructional vision, and practical next steps to make GYVTO a part of your everyday teaching journey. Let’s make the magic happen—starting with you. See you at your GYVTO PLC!
