#984 Adolescent Literacy Network

If your district is searching for ways to improve adolescent literacy practices, or if you are a teacher who works with adolescent readers with widely varying abilities, we invite you to join our networking group. As educators, we are our own best resources, and several districts in CESA 5 are meeting the literacy needs of struggling students in unique and effective ways.

This networking opportunity is perfect for reading specialists, coaches and teachers of adolescents, which typically includes students in grades 4-12.

Topic: What's New?

We will meet at the Cooperative Children’s Book Center (CCBC) on the UW Campus in Madison to hear a presentation on the latest and greatest children’s and young adult literature.

Then, Erin Schwane, an English teacher will share Web 2.0 tools for the classroom BRING LAPTOPS! Technology has been shown to increase engagement and boost success for today’s learner. You will definitely walk away with some new tools in your toolbox.
