Leading to Literacy

I was very privileged to be invited to do a plenary presentation at the Queensland Association of Special Education Leaders‘ annual conference.   Below is the presentation I gave on “Leading to Literacy” where I got to talk about the fabulous Willans Hill School and the four years of our journey implementing balanced literacy instruction with all students in the school.  I always feel very lucky to work with such a wonderful group of students and staff.

PS  The fabulous principal at Willans Hill, Chris Lennon, has recently announced her retirement plans.  We’ll really miss her – but I’m hoping we can “persuade” her into doing other things now!
