What a Great Conference!
The annual BCTELA Fall Conference was a great
success! Thank you to all who attended and shared your thoughts about the
literate lives of teachers and students. We have been blown away by the
positive feedback from members and we are already looking forward to next
year.
We would love to keep these rich conversations going and invite you to check out our new blog. We hope you stop by to look through the conference materials and to continue the conversations that started
at the conference.
