I am so excited and honored to announced that I will be presenting at The Extraordinary Educator's Conference in July! I was taken by complete surprise when SDE contacted me back in December to see if I had any interest in presenting.
Ummm...let me think about it for a sec...YESSSS!!!!
I don't know what scares me more - having to talk for 75 minutes or having no one sign up for my workshop! Given the whole Babbling Abby thing, I think I can handle the talking! Ha!
Even better? I get to present with some absolutely amazing educators. I think you might recognize a few...
Goodness, I'm nervous! I get butterflies just thinking about it!
So, is anyone going?! I'd love to know!

How exciting!! I think I live in your area {Fort Thomas} and have so enjoyed reading your blog the past two years! I'm a new Pre-K teacher and have actually used a few of your units with my littles! Congrats!
Finally SDE is getting presenters that we can get excited about! FUN! You'll do great!

I really just sent an email to my husband (also my principal!) BEGGING him to find a way to send me! You + Cara at the same event+ Chicago!?!? I couldn't even imagine getting the opportunity to attend!
@ Mrs. Krol - Kim Adsit, Deanna Jump, Shari Sloane, Deedee Wills, Kathleen Pedersen, Rachelle Smith, and Kim Jordano also present for SDE! I'm so blessed to be featured with these top notch teachers!!!! I feel like a peon!!!!!

I love that your name is next to "Extraordinary Educator" !!!!!
I'm going to have to look into it. I'm in Indiana and this would be a great trip and professional development opportunity.

How exciting! I wish that I could come and learn from all of you wonderful bloggers and teachers out there! Unfortunately my district does not give us any money towards this type of professional development:( Have fun! I am sure that you will have a lot of teachers there who want to learn from you! :)
Primary Classrooms are Oceans of Fun
Congratulations! What an honor! I wish I had the opportunity to attend, but I live too far away :( It sounds like an amazing opportunity.

Hi Abby!!
I have been following your blog for a few years now and own a LOT of your TPT units. You have made me such a better teacher! I LOVE all of your ideas and am so grateful my friend introduced me to your blog!
I looked at the conference and it sounds awesome!!
However, our school is not spending money on outside conferences and I am not sure I can swing the cost on my own.
I am wondering if you and Cara Carroll would consider doing a dinner get together one of the nights?! I know you have hosted blogger nights so maybe this could be similar!!
Please let me know if you have any interest in this!!
Thank you!!
Congrats Abby! I am so happy and excited for you! What a major accomplishment!

Abby... You'd better believe I'll be there! The day it was announced and I saw that you were going to be there I told my hubby to start saving because I was going to be there! I went to SDE's Chicago conference last year and it was good... and LOVED the SDE "I TEACH K" conference in Vegas. SOOOO excited to see you! Your class will be packed to fire-code...guaranteed! Heck...I'm trying to bring my whole district (NOT a joke!) Can't wait to meet 'cha! --Holly
Abby, are you going to present at the Las Vegas Conference too? I hope so. I'd love to come to listen to you speak!
I'm coming to Chicago!!! I teach a distict writing class with 2 other teachers, and our language arts coordinator is sending us all! YAY! Can't wait!
