is BACK!
This summer, Merideth provided an outstanding TCAP Writing Bootcamp for hundreds of educators across Tennessee, and the response was incredible! One request she heard again and again was for more practical strategies to help students move beyond basic word choice and develop vocabulary they truly understand, use, and apply in their writing. You asked. Merideth and the Bobbie Solley Center for Excellence in Teaching at 海角社区 listened!
We are excited to welcome Merideth back for Making Vocabulary Stick, a powerful one-hour VIRTUAL professional learning session packed with practical, research-based strategies you can take straight back to your classroom.
If you loved Merideth鈥檚 TCAP Writing Bootcamp, you won鈥檛 want to miss this opportunity to learn with her again. And if you haven鈥檛 had the chance to attend one of her sessions yet, this is a great place to start!
There is NO COST to participants thanks to the generosity of our donors.
Come ready to learn strategies you can use immediately to help your students become stronger, more precise writers!
