Middle and Secondary English Teacher Round Table Discussion 

One of the most useful things about teacher's conference has always been talking with other educators. In this session, teachers of English will meet together to discuss what is working and where they need help. This will not be a typical presentation, rather it is meant to run as a round table discussion. This is meant to be a place and time to spark new, creative ideas, troubleshoot problems, and send teachers off with something they can use when they go back to their classrooms. Attendees should come willing to share something that is working, something they need help with, and a lesson idea.
