KEYNOTE
Maris HawkinsThe Untapped C: Teacher CommunitiesThe past few years have been difficult, but we are all still surviving- and hopefully starting to thrive again! One way that we have been able to survive is through teacher communities. How can we find and maintain these communities and what are the benefits of finding your community?
Maris Hawkins currently teaches both elementary and middle school students at Capitol Hill Day School in Washington, DC. She blogs frequently about what is working in her own classroom. She is also the co-author of the book, Common Ground, Second Language Acquisition Goes to the Classroom. Maris loves planning EdCampCIVa. Finally, she helps out with the podcast, We Teach Languages.
