Webinars Are a Great "Mini-Conference"
My commute is usually between thirty to sixty minutes each way every day. I've found this is a great time to get in some professional learning time. I subscribe to several educational podcasts. Each day I select one of the latest podcasts or find a speaker on YouTube. Here are a a couple I highly recommend.
1. Levels are a Teacher's Tool-Irene Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell
