    Keynotes: (K-6)

  • Listen to Your Heart
    Remember why you become an educator! Be inspired to share laughs and maybe a tear or two with Donna as she reminds us all of the importance of touching children. The triumphs and tribulations of being a teacher are humorously explored!
  • Building Bridges
    Building Bridges to parents, standards, colleagues & children are at the heart of teaching! Donna reminds us of how we can overcome the challenges and gain the "tools" we need to "get to the other side"!
  • The ABC's of Change
    Educators and children are wrought with CHANGE. Come and discover how change can become an opportunity for success. You will see that the saying "when one door closes, another opens" does represent the goodness in dealing with new challenges and change in our own lives and careers.
  • Good for All…Imperative for Some
    Each day educators face the challenge of meeting the diverse needs of a diverse student population. In this lighthearted, thought-provoking keynote, Donna will share current research that explores the “best practice” strategies associated with differentiated instruction. Each teacher will leave with ideas that can be used immediately in their classroom to promote higher achievement and enable all students to better learn.
