In the Classroom and Beyond

In this interactive presentation, we will discuss our unique roles as literacy specialists and our invaluable obligation to share as much of our knowledge with our peers; building and curating those classroom connections of reading, writing, speaking and listening. To build those connections, we must apply inquiry as the basis for a curious, passionate classroom, encouraging students to metacognitively reflect upon their own learning process. Finally, I will demonstrate how to embed inquiry into lessons and offer examples of how inquiry can empower your students to wonder and imagine in the classroom and beyond.
