September 2018 is the launch of our first Reading Leaders Event with Donalyn Miller, “The Book Whisperer”, as our inaugural keynote speaker. This interactive Reading Leaders Event will focus on creating a classroom environment where students’ reading thrives. By developing reading relationships with our students, and leveraging those connections, we can inspire a love of reading and advance them academically.
Special guest speaker and literacy game changer, Donalyn Miller, is a dedicated teacher and US author of The Book Whisperer and Reading in the Wild. Donalyn will discuss sustainable and evidence-based methodologies for developing authentic reading behaviours in students, challenge conventional literacy practices, and explore new pathways towards building strong reading communities within our schools - with the ultimate goal to achieve academic success for students of every level.
