The HATCH  Methodology
HATCH is a teaching methodology designed to meet the needs of the entire learner.  It is a whole learner and learner centric approach developed by educators who work with high risk learners. 

HATCH  is specifically designed for low resource programs that need low threshold applications to engage and motivate struggling learners.  Based on cognitive and social cognitive research and implemented in over 28 states and 2 countries, Mockingbird Education's HATCH methodology encompasses instructional strategies, behavior management, culture, resiliency, and  motivation strategies.  A comprehensive approach, MB offers several different HATCH methodology workshops to meet your specific instructional and programmatic needs.

HATCH can be divided into 5 different components.   To TEACH effectively, 5 components in a  classroom must be intentionally orchestrated.  The acronym TEACH represents each of the components.

The HATCH Workshop Series
HATCH workshops introduce participants to all components of the  HATCH methodology (because good instruction  involves all 5 components interacting cohesively.   In HATCH, participants learn how to integrate components together (e.x. behavior management strategies within instruction and instructional strategies within culture building and resiliency) . 

However each TEACH component is also offered in a single workshop.  Most participants attend HATCH and  choose specialized TEACH workshops based on interest and need for increased depth and expertise.

We also offer FLY, a  workshop on implementation and how to build effective staff and learner accountability systems for new learning strategies.

Professional Development Options:

In 2013, Mockingbird Education will offer The following workshop series for Youthbuild Programs.
