Th is year’s theme—The American Mixtape—invites educat ors to explore the essential tracks that have shaped our nation over the p ast 250 years.

Teaching with no vels\, or whole books of any kind\, often gets a bad rap: it takes too muc h time\, students don't read or "fake" read\, and instruction becomes too focused on just "teaching a book." Instead\, we want books to create oppor tunities for learning that will transfer to all future reading experiences . Teaching with books can be a rich vehicle to address many integrated ELA R TEKS and help students build college readiness skills such as increased reading stamina\, deeper critical thinking\, and increased student indepen dence. Participants in this session will explore and evaluate intentional instructional practices that target both reading and writing within a 3-4 week unit of a novel or nonfiction book. Participants should bring a book of choice with them as time will be provided to plan an experience with li terature supported by collaboration from the presenter and other participa nts. \;

On Day 1\, part icipants will experience and explore the use of powerful mentor texts and targeted mini-lessons. When mini-lessons are designed with complex texts a s mentors\, students will gain increased ability to apply knowledge and sk ills independently. On Day 2\, participants will explore the use of reader s-writers notebooks\, protocols for peer collaboration\, and strategies fo r conferring. Both reading conferences and writing conferences provide rei nforcement and/or enrichment of skills that lead to student growth. On Day 3\, participants will have time to plan and differentiate for specific cl assroom applications. To guide their personal designs\, participants will work from choice boards and curated resources.
