2014 IRA Conference: New Orleans

Words can't describe how exciting my trip to the IRA Conference was this year in New Orleans! I met incredible educational consultants, authors and most importantly teachers who share a love of Literacy! While I was at the conference, I went to several workshops and sessions, it truly was an amazing learning experience. Like every teacher, I feel compelled to share some power points and websites that were given at the conference. I hope you find them useful and helpful within your instruction! I of course had to add some pics of my new friends!
