Discover Effective Strategies for Integrating Novels into Your Upper-Levels Classes While Taking The Path of Least Resistance: Summer PD with Me!

The Path of Least Resistance

Did you know that your high-voltage classroom can run on low-tech bandwidth? We don’t need all the latest apps and bells and whistles to keep class afloat. You may find this surprising, but I rarely use classroom tech apps, and there is a method to this approach. I am not against technology—in fact, I love it! I have several novels, short stories, and resources that explore different themes of technology. However, I’ve discovered the BRIGHT side of a tech-free classroom: and it’s been setting my kids free. Want to know more? Join Meredith McDonald White and I as we talk about the path of least resistance on Friday, May 31st.

Like you, I love creating opportunities for leisurely reading in the classroom. As a 19 year veteran teacher and as an author of Comprehensible novels, using them in the classroom is a win-win.

But let’s be real, with 30-40 students in the class, it can be an uphill battle. Amidst the complexities of teaching, managing classroom dynamics, the pervasive “Is this for a grade?” mindset, coupled with administrative pressures for “data-driven” results, I’ve developed an engagement tool that not only aligns with acquisition theories but also helps keep me employed! And the good news is I will be speaking LIVE about how I craft and foster student engagement with language-learner literature through reading activities in all modes; we hit on grammar too! This approach has instilled a sense of anticipation and expectation in my students for the learning experience; and it can do the same for your students!
