Morningside Teachers’ Academy

The purpose of Morningside Teachers’ Academy (MTA) is to replicate the remarkable outcomes of Morningside students at schools all over the world. Our expert team of instructors provides training, coaching, and school consulting so that teachers, administrators, and other educators can implement the Morningside Model of Generative Instruction in their own schools.  MTA has helped over 150 schools and agencies enable their students to make incredible gains and set new learning trajectories!

The Morningside Model of Generative Instruction (MMGI)  is a research based, empirically validated educational model shown to be extremely effective in developing competent learners equipped with the necessary tools for college and career readiness.

 

Global

Morningside Academy has consulted with our school for numerous years. They have provided academic coaching for our teachers in multiple areas. They have given us various instructional strategies and helped solidify daily practices in language, reading, writing and math. Morningside helped shape our school with common behavior management strategies and best practices with intensive training and consulting on increasing specific praise to expectation and shaping behavior. Our school has grown tremendously from the systems and structures Morningside Academy has brought to us. Teachers went through the full coaching/consultation cycle and were able to reflect on their practice and have ongoing support. Alongside the teachers, the students showed the most growth in their efficacy and academics.

Jessica Matsik, Nanakuli Elementary School
Having taught in Hawaii public schools for the last 30 years, I have used many math programs and strategies including those selected by the State as well as those I have chosen to use with my students. Prior to transferring “back to the leeward coast,” I had never heard of Morningside Academy or the Morningside Project. But, I wish I did. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to be trained in and learn about this progressive system, which helps students work towards fluency so they can maximize their learning. Within our first year of using the Morningside board work, fact fluency and diagnostic & prescriptive programs we saw significant gains in overall math skills and have continued to see growth and success with our students each year since (as noted by our Aimsweb and state assessments scores). We have closed learning gaps. We have made learning math fun. We have used this system to increase engagement, self-esteem and success as our students continue to work towards mastery of the rigorous grade level standards. I highly recommend the Morningside Project for all schools.
