Writing with Youth: Inside and Outside of the Classroom with keynote addresses by Yolanda Sealey-Ruiz and Kelly Chandler-Olcott

The 1st ever, virtual Northeast National Writing Project conference features live keynote addresses, teacher-led workshops, and teacher-writing sessions; there are pre-recorded sessions that participants can view on-demand. Through ZOOM and Google Docs, we anticipate the National Writing Project experience will be at its best – a coordination of ZOOM links and organized pre-recorded on-demand presentations…a menu of sorts.

Our ignite sessions are pre-recorded and viewable as on-demand sessions while showcases and workshops are live providing participants flexibility to pace the conference experience that works best for them. Throughout the day, our community will have opportunities to gather for discussion and networking, as well, and pose questions to guide the conversation.

The event begins at 9:00 a.m. and concludes at 4:30 p.m.

We hope you will join us!
