This is such a great quote: " I had a fabulous time at this conference, so good that it took me three posts to share, and each time, it made me excited all over again. I hope you are able to go to at least a day of sessions with wonderful presenters this year. It is renewing, motivating, and of course, educational! " That's when you know you learned, are renewed and refreshed. This type of experience is so important for educators! I hope to get to an IRA conference one day.
