The Power of Student Choice in Nurturing Lifelong Readers
Monday June 22, 2026 2:40pm - 3:40pm PDT
CC 230 (Garrett)
I used to believe a period schedule did not support a daily free reading and writing routine in English. After being introduced to Jared Amato's Just Read It, however, I proposed a fourth quarter experiment implementing daily Read and WRAP within the sixty minute period. I will share my results in this session.

You Cant Teach Who You Do Not Know: Why Relationships and Conversations Drive Learning
Monday June 22, 2026 2:40pm - 3:40pm PDT
CC 210 (President's Dining Room)
You can't teach who you do not know! When educators move beyond labels to develop deeper understanding of students, instruction becomes more responsive and effective. Culture influences what students experience in learning environments (Knight, 2015). This session examines how relationships, language, and intentional conversation support engagement and deeper learning.
