Keeping the Wonder Workshop
A Secondary ELA Workshop Full of Creative, Engaging, and Rigorous Teaching Ideas
Watch Promo Enroll in Course
his virtual professional development workshop will leave you feeling inspired to engage your students in literature and prepared to help them master their ELA standards. Hosted by four secondary English teachers, Keeping the Wonder is specifically for high school and middle school English teachers who want to learn teacher-tested strategies that will help them connect their students to the magic of literature.
Elementary teachers spend their entire careers building a love of reading, but as secondary English teachers, we run the risk of tearing down this foundation with rigidity disguised as rigor. Magic, whimsy, and play don't have to end in elementary school. Join us for this virtual professional development where you will learn alongside practicing English educators who strive to create engaging classrooms full of wonder!

Your ticket price includes ten+ possible PD credit hours per prior approval from your district, approximately $75 worth of teaching materials, unlimited replays, valuable expertise from lead and guest presenters, and a priceless community full of like-minded English teachers.

You asked and we listened. Due to an outpour of requests to be able to attend this workshop virtually, we vowed to make it possible! We have been hard at work taking what we do at the live workshops and building a library of PD in video format. To make our virtual attendees feel just as special as our live guests, we are going to include last season's content, this season's content, and any future season's content to your Teachable account. We will also add you to our private Facebook group so that you can mingle and collaborate with both our live and virtual Wonder Workshop educators.
We hope that you join us!
