Bring ideas about what you'd like to discuss. Examples of possible conversations might be "Teaching Argument Writing Well," "Organizational Strategies in a 1:1 Workshop Classroom," and "How We Can Support Our Beginning Teachers." While we welcome a focus on technology, we really want to have good conversation about your English classroom. We will build the conversation schedule together at the beginning of the day, so if you have specific successes this year that would help others OR specific struggles you need to problem-solve, please come willing to facilitate a conversation.
