At the Write to Learn Conference, we deliver the very best internationally-known keynote speakers, seminar leaders, and authors directly to you over the course of three jam-packed days. And when you add in over 50 informative, engaging breakout sessions on all aspects of literacy—reading, writing, workshop pedagogy, integration with other content areas, etc.—you simply can’t go wrong!

Come to the 2010 Write to Learn Conference, to be held February 25-27, 2010 at the Tan-Tar-A Resort in Osage Beach, Missouri, and you get all of this—and much more. Browse the large selection of exhibits in the exhibit hall; attend the Late Night Open Mic and read that new poem you just wrote; play with the giant Magnetic Poetry board and enter our Magnetic Poetry Contest for fun and prizes. And that’s just a sampling of the stimulating activities available!

But let’s not forget the speakers. This year’s pre-conference (Thursday, Feb. 25) will feature respected poet and author Georgia Heard, literacy guru Harvey “Smokey” Daniels, brain-compatible teaching expert Willy Wood, and a trio of Missouri teachers who are authorities on incorporating technology into language arts instruction.

Our keynote speakers will include Harvey “Smokey” Daniels, best-selling author Firoozeh Dumas, children’s and young adult author Jack Gantos, and master teacher Jim Burke.

We truly believe that the Write to Learn Conference offers you the very best language arts professional development experience, for the best price, that you can find. Just click on the buttons above to navigate through the program to see what we have in store for you.
