A conference in sound bytes: 6 quotes from KWLA ’15

One of the best parts of KWLA: I got to sit down and chat for a few minutes or for an hour with some of the wisest people in our profession.

(E.g.: ACTFL president Jacque VanHouten, ACTFL TOY Nicole Naditz, NNELL president Nadine Jacobsen-MacLean, Learning Shifts guru Thomas Sauer, TFLTA incoming president Julie Golden, KY-AATSP TOY Jennifer Larson, as well as other leaders like Susann Davis and Randy Barrette and rockstar teachers in the trenches like Lucas Gravitt, Katie Aebersold, María Mas-Effler, so many more.)

Worst part of KWLA: I spent so much time chatting with amazing people that I didn’t get to attend sessions by other amazing people.  Confession: I was only able to attend one other regular session (the one on MovieTalk by Sarah Moran and Donna Tatum-Johns, also very influential master teachers on my personal practice).

So, I will share six quotes I don’t want to forget from KWLA.  Well, don’t take them all as exact quotes.  But here’s the gist.

Thanks for the learning – and the coffee – everyone.
