Pre- Kindergarten

Pre-K students, specifically 4 year olds, come to school with a wide and diverse range of academic skills, social emotional competencies, and behavioral needs. Working alongside your Pre-K educators, Cooke Institute consultants collaborate with you to identify and develop what each young child is able to do, and advance those skills in developmentally appropriate ways. Cooke supports your Pre-K program to build the capacity to implement proactive strategies and interventions to ensure your youngest learners have the most successful academic and social experience in school and beyond. Consultant services are customizable to fit your specific needs. Some offerings include:

Applying best pedagogical practices to design and organize classrooms to improve teaching and learning aligned to ECERs and the Pre-K Foundation for the Common Core.
Implementing engaging and developmentally appropriate practice and differentiated instruction aligned to the PKFCC.
Increasing understanding of what is typical and atypical early childhood development and support with implementing strategies, interventions and accommodations for students with identified and unidentified special and unique needs.
Utilizing the CLASS assessment tool, increasing positive interactions in Pre-K classrooms among teacher – teacher, teacher – student, and student – student.
Increasing data-driven decision making by using data gathered by NYC DOE approved authentic assessment systems (Work Sampling, Teaching Strategies GOLD, HighScope Child Observation Record) to measure and monitor student progress and assess future needs of students.

K-8 literacy, math, special education consulting services

As educators, you are faced each day with the joy and challenge of meeting your students’ unique learning needs across the curriculum and elevating student outcomes. Working alongside your staff, Cooke Institute consultants collaborate with you to identify your literacy, math, and / or special education needs. Cooke consultants work 1:1 with your teachers to build the capacity to bring the diverse needs of all learners to the forefront of their teaching, including culturally and linguistically diverse students, students with IEPs and students at-risk for low academic achievement.

Consultant services are customizable to fit your specific needs. Some offerings include:

Individualized coaching to strengthen and enhance pedagogical practices, instructional strategies and interventions using evidence-based best practices.
Leveraging multiple sources of data to help teachers identify, understand, and implement techniques that address the learning needs of all students.
Debriefing and meeting sessions within and across grade levels to collaboratively reflect and plan effective, differentiated instruction.
Capacity building throughout the school to embrace inclusive practices.

High School / Transition

Although High School students with disabilities may be planning for a different future than their typically developing peers, meaningful job-focused futures are within reach. Working alongside your staff, Cooke Institute consultants collaborate with you to develop a Vocational Skills program with Transition Services that best meet the needs of your high school students. Cooke supports your school in developing a meaningful alternative post-secondary pathway program which prepares your students in becoming independent and contributing members of society and active participants in their community. Consultant services are customizable to fit your specific needs. Some offerings include:

Providing targeted, 1:1 coaching for job coaches, educators, and other role-specific support staff with the training they need to assist students while promoting independence.
Designing and implementing Vocational Skills classes targeting technical and interpersonal skills necessary for success in any workplace.
Identifying community partners who can provide robust internship experiences which hone in on student’s individual strengths and interests.
