David’s session was very well crafted and the one thing that makes him a favourite of mine is that he speaks from the heart. Unless you’ve given presentations like this and know the tonnes of work that goes into preparation, he delivers it as if he just happened to have some of this stuff on the ol’ hard drive and just stands on the stage and pours out his emotion and passion for the topic. This time, he talked about Our Kids, Our World and I don’t think that you could challenge anything that he talked about. Classroom teachers just need the time and he challenged everyone to answer the question “What does it really mean to be literate?” That’s a deep question and those who complain that kids are working to get around the content filter need to answer that to know why. I also really liked this quote when attached to teaching “We want our students to be the students we want to teach”. Isn’t that the truth?
