This year I will be in schools around the nation, where I'll teach administrators, teachers and parents about the power of literacy and differentiated instruction and how to implement it into your classrooms. I offer sessions on a wide variety of topics – many of which are based on material in one or more of my previously published books. I provide strategies and resources for advancing adolescent literacy primarily in the middle school and high school setting. My research and professional focus includes inclusive classrooms, using multimodal instruction strategies, differentiated instruction, and technology.
Contact me for more information about booking a presentation at your school.
