During the week of October 4th-8th we attended two conferences. The first conference was on Special Education Reading Interventions. This conference was taught by Dr. Jane Anderson, Ph.D of Saint Mary's University. We enjoyed this conference and learned many new interventions we can try with our students. One of the interventions we are going to implement is Repeated Oeal Assisted Reading (ROAR). This conference is a three day conference, we will be attending two more sessions; one in December and the third in February.
On Thursday and Friday we attended the Minnesota Association of Administrators of State & Federal Education Programs Conference (MAASFEP). There we many sessions for us to choose from. We each had the opportunity to go to four sessions. We learned and took away useful information from this conference too.
