This Professional learning experience offers common sense, research-based noncontroversial, basic techniques used by effective teachers that cost nothing to implement.
No theory - No platitudes - just dozens and dozens of practical, pragmatic, no-nonsense and immediately implementable techniques will be shared and demonstrated. You will learn strategies to manage your classroom for student learning and achievement.
Come and see how you can organize space, time and materials so that student learning will take place. Leave with a classroom management plan you can use when school begins. For administrators, come and see how you can create a school with a culture of effective teachers.
Harry and Rosemary Wong are foremost authorities on the effective teacher and among the most sought-after speakers in education. Harry has presented to more than one million educators and the Wong's have written the best-selling book, The First Days of School, that has sold more than 3.6 million copies. Harry is a former award-winning high school science teacher, and recipient of the Horace Mann Outstanding Educator Award.

Chelonnda Seroyer is a high school English teacher who succeeded on her firstday of teaching. After four years, she was named Teacher-of-the-Year. What she did to succeed can be seen on the DVD, Using The First Days of School, that accompanies the book. Today, she is a much sought after nationally recognized speaker and consultant.
