We have a vast array of impressive tools and what seems to be an unlimited supply of robust resources to better reach and more efficiently teach our students. It is my pleasure to invite you to attend what I promise will be an exciting day packed with ideas, tips and tools you can use immediately in your classroom.

Throughout our fast-paced day together, you will receive a wealth of resources and developmentally appropriate practical strategies focused on reading, writing and mathematics. I will share dozens of ways to fully engage your students in creative activities that build on their excitement for learning and their natural curiosity. In addition, we will explore innovative techniques to unleash the power of music and movement to foster learning, and I will share multiple ways to use outstanding mobile technologies and online resources that provide new, highly motivating learning opportunities for our students.

Most importantly, my hope is that you will feel encouraged, empowered and invigorated to use many of the timesaving, classroom-proven ideas and resources to build the essential literacy and math skills young learners need to be successful.
