Conference Presentation Prep Kit: From Classroom Teacher to Recognized Leader

I have been presenting my classroom work and action research at Conferences around the country for about 15 years now and it has opened so many doors, professionally.

What’s Included

• Conference Prep Guide — prompts to design a powerful, research-backed presentation
• Publication Planner — step-by-step outline for turning your talk into an article
• Faculty Workshop Template — guidance to lead professional development at your school
• School Board/Administration Brief — structure for presenting your work at the system level
• Leadership Reflection Log — track milestones, celebrations, and future opportunities

Who It’s For

• Classroom teachers ready to grow into leadership roles
• Educators presenting at conferences or faculty workshops
• Teachers preparing for National Board Certification or graduate study
• Anyone who wants their hard work and research to be seen, celebrated, and supported

Why Teachers Love It

This resource is broad enough to adapt to any subject area, but specific enough to give you real strategies and confidence. You’ll have clear fill-in prompts, sentence stems, and reflection spaces to help you:

• Share your classroom innovations with colleagues and administrators
• Gain recognition and credibility through publications and presentations
• Build a portfolio of leadership artifacts for future opportunities
• Position yourself as a thought leader in your school and beyond
