I just returned home from SDE’s National Conference in Vegas. My head is spinning from all the wonderful moments shared there with educators around the country!
In my second session, I packed in as many mini writing lesson ideas as possible! I went month by month and shared what we focus on in our mini-lessons as well as how we sprinkle in that seasonal magic in our writing too!
After lunch in my third session, we focused on the inquiry model and created a make and take for our classrooms.
And finally to wrap up our day of learning, we got into the nitty gritty of guided math! This session is definitely one of my favorites!
In three days I head out to the Dallas area for a full day with Denison ISD to talk all about guided math! I am excited to be included in their Summer PD sessions!
I know there are many factors in attending a national conference, and it isn’t feasible for everyone! Because it can be a bummer to feel left out in the summer I am having a quick 24 hour: –>No Bummer Summer Conference Sale!
Here are some fun pictures from the conference!
I am off to spend a day with the family before I leave again!

I so wish I could have been there this week!!!! I know your sessions were AMAZING!!!! And… Denison ISD isn't too far from me 😉

Could you do a blog post about the mini writing lessons you do each month? Thank you! 🙂
I am sure your sessions were amazing! I wish I could have been there. I envy your ability to present to (gulp) adults. I have benefited from reading your blog and purchasing many of your TPT units. Will you be in the classroom this year?
You sessions were fabulous! Thank-you so much. Enjoy your family time!

It was an amazing day! I'm so excited to implement many of the ideas I learned in each of your sessions on Monday! Thanks for sharing all your ideas and knowledge! It was a great week…kind of felt like going to college — in a fun way! I'm off to go shopping now! Thanks for everything, Reagan! 🙂
Your sessions were amazing! So glad I was able to meet you!
