Content: Content will be shared through a variety of mediums--verbally in talking with attendees and via scanable QR code codes that link to video examples of AI in South Fayette's K-12 classrooms.
Sections of our poster set up will be tailored to each grade band with the following details:
Elementary (K–5):
AI tools supporting literacy and early STEM exploration
Examples: AI-powered reading assistants, simple coding with AI robots
Focus on ensuring opportunity for diverse learners
Middle School (6–8):
Project-based AI learning and ethical discussions
Process: Demonstrate hands-on activities and lesson ideas from participating teachers
Engage attendees with sample AI tools and resources
Facilitate brief Q&A or small group discussions on adapting ideas
Examples: AI simulations, data projects, creative problem-solving
Emphasis on authentic, real-world experiences
High School (9–12):
Advanced AI applications in programming, math, and language arts
Examples: Personalized feedback tools, AI-driven research, collaboration
Focus on future-ready skills and leadership
Attendees will leave with practical tools, resources, and strategies for integrating AI across K–12 classrooms. Teachers from each grade span (K–2, 3–5, 6–8, 9–12) will be on hand to share their experiences, including lesson ideas, hands-on activities, approaches for ethical AI use, and insights gained from their AI-focused Professional Learning Communities (PLCs). Participants will see models and examples they can adapt to support innovative, collaborative, and future-focused learning in their own classrooms.
Participants will be actively engaged through discussions with grade-level teachers, exploration of sample AI activities and resources, and guided conversations about incorporating AI into instruction, classroom management, and planning. Attendees will have opportunities to ask questions, share ideas, and consider practical ways to use AI to enhance student learning and professional practice.
