The proposal will support the MS ELA coordinator in presenting a paper at the Literacy Research Association (LRA) annual meeting, providing a powerful opportunity to learn from other presenters and bring cutting-edge literacy research back to NPS.
The middle school ELA coordinator will present her research paper on a panel called “Crossing Boundaries and Borders to Interrogate Curricular Practices” and engage with discussion around relevant topics (e.g. equitable writing assessment and pedagogy) with other panelists. She will also attend sessions addressing all facets of literacy research and literacy instruction over the course of the 3-day conference and network with leading thinkers and practitioners in the field.
