NTPRS is not in Dallas…it’s in DC this year……easy drive for East-coasters
Yeah actually that was a repost from last year, thanks Mary Beth.
When I look back at how I was able to learn this stuff, I have to credit the conferences. You gotta see it. Knowing that so many can’t just up and fly off to a conference, I hoped lots of video and discussion here and anywhere on the internet could help, and they have as various blogs and CI sites have popped up all over the place, but being there with other teachers, especially back in the day, back in the days of it feeling like one big summer camp, that is what made me turn the corner on this work.
Ben, I will only be at NTRPS this year. I applied for funding for both but Detroit Public Schools only funded NTRPS and although I wish they had approved iFLT…alas…I’m only headed to DC in July.
This post resonates with me…even after only year of trying to implement TCI…returning to TPRS training will be even more important for me. Hopefully you will be at NTPRS? I’ve been out of the blog conversation all year and look forward to reading back through all the wisdome of everyone so I can really reflect.
I won’t be there Brian. I’ll miss working with you. I love your teaching style from last summer, my brother. I want it to become what it can become – greatness. Maybe we’ll meet at a 2016 conference.
Brian – I’m looking forward to seeing you at NTPRS! Email me at adodd@wsesu.org if you have a minute…I’d love to know how you are doing.
I’ll be at NTPRS also and looking forward to seeing both of you!!!!
with love

Our Winnetka posse (Carla Tarini, Su Pesa n me) will be presenting 2 sessions at iFLT (WooHoo!) – we are repeating/updating our Toolbox for Elementary T/CI Newbies from last year – which was well-received (this is not about pedagogy – we leave that to the veterans) and we’re creating/adding a session on Elementary FVR (and Elem Reading in general). Since there’s such a dearth of elementary-specific sessions (Leslie Davidson + ?) I think Carol ‘n co. were eager to get more elementary offerings.
We plan to take full advantage of the War Room. There will be much belly laughing and guffawing, for sure. I look forward to meeting PLC’ers whom I’ve never had the chance to meet face to face!
OK, iFLT is little over a week away — I am dying to know who is going!!!
*I* am!!! I know Ben and Sabrina are, and Grant, and Diane N. and Leah LePage….WHO ELSE?
Where is everyone staying?
BTW….if anyone needs it, I have an extra room booked at Country Inn and Suites that is not going to be needed after all. Email me privately and I’ll see about handing it off to you. 🙂
Looking forward to getting some great ideas as I move into a CI district!!! 🙂

Sorry! thanks 🙂
I will be there too! I am presenting one of the days on a topic completely inspired by a Ben Slavic comment here on the blog called ….”Going Beyond MovieTalks.”
I hope to have a coffee or adult beverage with as many friends as possible!
I am attending iFLT, along w my 2 awesome colleagues/co-presenters, Su Pesa and Carla Tarini. We’re presenting 2 sessions geared twd elementary. One’s called ‘Ready, Set, Success!’ (a toolbox for elementary newbies-not pedagogy but other teacher resources), and the other one is called, ‘Expanding your Elementary FVR library.’ It’s all about adapting and creating comprehensible materials/texts for elementary k-6. We’re presenting the FVR one again @ NTPRS!
