Register Quick-- Fact Fluency on March 19th
Sign up now for the Developing & Assessing Fact Fluency professional learning session with Gina Kling on March 19th. 9:00-3:30PM at the Royal Oak Admin Building. See registration page for details.
Gina literally wrote the book on fact fluency and she's a very engaging speaker. Her research has been done in the real world and the strategies are not expensive or time consuming. You can implement right away! Here's a video interview with the authors of the book, Dr. Kling and Dr. Bay-Williams.The timeline is short and we expect this session to sell out, so register as soon as you can. I hope to see you there!
