Hi Everyone!
As many of us approach the half way mark of the summer, I wanted to share with you some AMAZING Facebook Live English Language Arts series that will be starting at the beginning of August. Believe me. You are not going to want to miss these!
I, along with many other incredible English teachers, are going to be sharing some very helpful back to school tech tips and teaching strategies that will help you get your classroom off the ground, as well as help you implement some new strategies and programs into your classes.
There are two series that are going live at the beginning of August:
1. The Secondary Series will be doing a week long Back to School Tech Tip Series starting on July 30th. Kick the series off with us on the 30th at 7pm CST in our Facebook group. You will get to hear from all the presenters and what we are presenting next week! At the end of the series, you will be able to earn PD credit and enter to win a $100 gift card. Woo hoo!
I will be presenting on Tuesday, August 1st at 7:20pm CST on the website, Prezi and on Thursday, August 3rd at 7:20pm on the website, StoryBoardThat. The Facebook Lives are only 10 minutes long.
2. In addition to The Secondary Series, I am also participating in the ELA Summer Series-The Easiest PD ever. Every night, starting August 1st-August 15th, a fabulous English teacher is going to presenting on a tip or strategy for the English classroom. These are going to be fabuloussss, and you are not going to want to miss any of this!
I will be presenting on August 5th at 9pm on "How to Teach Your Students to Elaborate on Their Thinking". This is a very common struggle amongst teachers, and I hope you will join me! Here is a list of all the presenters:
