The NIWP Spring Confernce Is Coming March 8th and 9th 2011!

NIWP has  rolled back the spring conference rates to 2007 levels!  The total cost for a full two day conference, with Barry Hoonan as the keynote speaker will be only $80. One day fees have been reduced to a low $60.  The conference is the same format as before with a well-known, dynamic keynote speaker and the NWP standard of teachers teaching teachers in the afternoon. There will be 16 concurrent sessions including topics such as writing in the content area, grading, and vocabulary. Our workshops provide for thoughtful discussion of topics important to you and your students, as well as practical strategies that can be implemented in your classroom the next day.
Our other big news is the change of conference sites. In an attempt to make the conference more accessible and convenient for attendees, we have moved to the Spokane Convention Center. This move ensures ample parking in area lots—some as low as $5.00 per day, and access to area restaurants for lunch. We will be meeting in the conference auditorium for the morning sessions and move down the hall to the breakout rooms in the afternoon.  We hope this will allow you to arrive at the conference relaxed and ready to network with area teachers!
