SCOLT23  was in Alabama this year. It was both inspiring and exhausting as most conferences tend to be. I am always very intentional about having three specific takeaways for my classroom. I recorded them in this episode for you! If you were at SCOLT I would love to hear YOUR takeaways!

Here are the links mentioned in this podcast:
