Building Confidence and Comprehension: Oral Reading Fluency
Monday August 3, 2026 10:00am - 11:00am MDT
Shoshoni
As a secondary literacy specialist, and middle & high school English teacher I understand the demands of curriculum maps and pacing guides as well as the challenges of inheriting struggling adolescent readers in a tier 1 classroom. I've done the work and can model and explain how it can be done.
This session stands out because it tackles a critical—but often neglected—component of adolescent literacy: oral reading fluency in secondary classrooms. While fluency is widely emphasized in elementary settings, many middle and high school educators assume it is either already mastered or only relevant for struggling readers. This session challenges that misconception by clearly connecting oral reading fluency to comprehension, confidence, and academic success across all content areas.
What makes this session especially compelling is its practical, cross-curricular focus. Rather than presenting fluency as a stand-alone intervention, participants will experience modeled routines that seamlessly integrate into English language arts, science, social studies, and other secondary classrooms. Attendees will not just hear about strategies—they will see them in action, participate in them, and leave with ready-to-use tools that require minimal preparation and instructional time.
The session is uniquely valuable because it:
Bridges research and practice by clearly explaining the “why” behind fluency instruction for adolescents while immediately translating that research into classroom routines.
Addresses common misconceptions that often prevent secondary educators from prioritizing fluency.
Provides low-risk, engaging instructional approaches that build student confidence without embarrassing or stigmatizing older learners.
Supports both core classroom teachers and interventionists, making it broadly applicable.
Educators should choose this session because it offers something rare at the secondary level: concrete, realistic strategies that can be implemented the very next day to improve comprehension and engagement. Participants will leave not only understanding the importance of oral reading fluency, but equipped with actionable routines that help students become more fluent, confident, and capable readers in every content area.

Intro to Educational Neuroscience
Monday August 3, 2026 10:00am - 11:00am MDT

Why choose this session? While other sessions offer new tips, we offer the biological blueprint for learning. We uncomplicate concepts like neuroplasticity and neurons and provide evidence-based, brain-friendly strategies that are scientifically proven to enhance memory, engagement, and long-term retention. This is not just theory; it’s the science of learning translated directly into powerful classroom practice.

Start Strong, Stay Strong
Monday August 3, 2026 10:00am - 11:00am MDT
Cheyenne
This session blends two of the most influential and practical frameworks in education—Harry Wong’s work on procedures and classroom structure and Todd Whitaker’s insights on teacher professionalism and behavior—into a single, highly actionable workshop. Rather than offering abstract theory, the session provides teachers with concrete tools, ready-to-use checklists, and real classroom scenarios that they can immediately apply. Attendees will leave with a clear and refined plan for their first day of school, a personalized professional behavior self-check, and several high-leverage strategies proven to increase student engagement, reduce management issues, and strengthen classroom culture.

What makes this session uniquely valuable is its dual emphasis on both strong procedures and the daily professional habits that define great teaching. Teachers will engage in collaborative reflection, scenario-based problem-solving, and practical planning that connects directly to their own classrooms. This workshop is designed to give educators exactly what they need to start the year with confidence: clarity, structure, and research-backed strategies they can use on Day One. It is not another program to learn—it is a set of simple, powerful practices that help teachers start strong and stay strong all year long.

Integrating computational modeling - Socio Scientific Issues
Monday August 3, 2026 11:15am - 12:15pm MDT
Shoshoni
"My session is unique because it presents an innovative computational modeling tool that allows students to construct and represent complex systems. The tool, called SageModeler, is a systems dynamics modeling platform that has been shown to support students in making sense of complex scientific phenomena while applying systems thinking.

I have been working with high school science teachers in Green River and Douglas to develop a unit that uses this tool to support students in making informed decisions about Socio-Scientific Issues. Many contemporary issues in Wyoming require scientific knowledge to inform social decisions. Questions such as whether wolves should be reintroduced into Yellowstone, whether a new modular nuclear reactor should be built in Kemmerer, or whether AI data centers should be developed in the state all demand careful scientific reasoning.

This session will not only introduce a powerful new tool that teachers can integrate into their classrooms, but will also provide practical strategies to support teachers in preparing scientifically literate citizens capable of navigating complex and consequential public issues."

Bots, Not Burnout: Using AI to Support Teaching
Monday August 3, 2026 1:45pm - 2:45pm MDT
Teton
"AI is a “brave new world” for educators. What do terms like bots, AI smashing, hallucinations, and closed-garden AI really mean—and how do they impact teaching and learning?

In this hands-on session, participants will demystify these concepts while actively creating practical AI tools for their own professional use. Attendees will build a custom AI bot designed to serve as a PLC thinking partner. They will also learn how to engineer prompts to make AI resources better. Lastly, we will compare and contrast differ AI's using AI smashing tools.

This session is not lecture-based. Participants will engage in guided, hands-on work and leave with ready-to-use AI skills they can immediately incorporate into classroom instruction, planning, and assessment design."

Mixed Six tasks help teachers break down complex concepts and examine student understanding across multiple levels, rather than treating learning as a single progression from “right” to “wrong.” What makes this session unique is its focus on the design of thinking rather than the delivery of content. Mixed Six is presented as a reusable instructional design framework, not a subject-specific strategy. This session is intentionally practical. Participants will experience a Mixed Six task firsthand and leave with a clear, adaptable template they can use to design their own Mixed Six tasks in any subject area.

Dual and concurrent enrollment can give students a head start on college, but without the right guidance, it can also feel a bit like sending them onto a college campus with a backpack full of good intentions and a very confusing course catalog. In this interactive session, we’ll explore how high school counselors, college advisors, and faculty can work together to create a supportive system that helps students choose the right courses, understand expectations, and build the confidence and skills they need to succeed in college. Through conversation and shared experiences, participants will exchange practical strategies for advising students, strengthening high school–college partnerships, and ensuring dual enrollment is more than just earning credits, it’s a meaningful step toward long-term college success.

Stop! Collaborate… and Listen!
Tuesday August 4, 2026 11:15am - 12:15pm MDT
Teton
Every teacher knows this moment…
You’re talking.
Half the class is listening.
Three kids are still finishing a story.
Someone drops a pencil.
And the room slowly slides off the rails.

Whole Brain Teaching gives us a reset button:

""Class!""
""Yes!""

Think about the best things from the 90s.

A Nintendo controller.
A Tamagotchi.
A pair of LEGO bricks.

None of them were complicated. In fact, the magic was the opposite. The rules were simple enough that anyone could jump in instantly. But once you had the basics, the possibilities never ran out.

That’s exactly what Class! / Yes! is.

At its core, it’s the simplest routine you’ll ever teach.

Teacher says “Class!”
Students respond “Yes!”

Whatever tone, rhythm, or energy the teacher uses, the class mirrors it. That mirroring locks in attention, gets every voice involved, and resets the room in seconds.

Students already know the game. They know the rule. Their brains don’t have to figure out what to do. But the tiny variations keep it fresh, playful, and engaging.

It’s like the Macarena of classroom management.
Everyone knows the moves.

Two words.
Infinite remixes.
Instant attention.

The House that Math Built
Tuesday August 4, 2026 3:15pm - 4:15pm MDT
Cheyenne
How does the literal structure of Arithmetic inform Teachers' methods of teaching?
What is the literal structure of Arithmetic?
How does that help students understand not just basic Mathematics, but some higher level Maths?
How can we make the structure of Arithmetic understandable to the Teachers, show that they can make it understandable to the Students?
Many people approach Mathematics as a set of rules that need to be memorized. Having a clear understanding of why the "Rules" of Exponents work, because of how they are ties to Multiplication; and why Multiplication works, because it is ties to Addition; and why Addition works because it is tied to Counting, and Counting is where Arithmetic starts: explains the how one builds to the next in a logical order fashion- the structure of Arithmetic.
It is an opportunity to review things that Teachers understand, and show how they connect, as well as learning a few things not usually taught in the many college courses we endured to become educators. Most importantly, it has a visual, potentially hands on approach, we can use with students from Counting to Quantities to help them understand Mathematics.
