What is the MSELASummit?
The MSELASummit is a back-to-school virtual conference hosted each summer by Laura Kebart, M.Ed. and that features interviews and trainings with experienced teachers who believe in achieving an actual harmony between teaching and living.
This year's BIG FOCUS is on show-n-tell strategies for increasing student engagement throughout the most common reading and writing units we teach in the middle school grades: fiction, nonfiction, expository, argument, persuasion, poetry, and drama.
We're also dedicating an ENTIRE DAY to what to teach the first day, first week, and first month of the school year before we dive into the unit topics.
Each day of the MSELA Summit is organized by topic so you can pick and choose which day(s) you wish to attend to best prioritize your needs as a teacher. You can attend one session, one day, or all the sessions each day! >> These are the options for those who upgrade to the All-Access Pass.
The topics, ideas, freebies, and action steps you will learn over these five days are all designed to help you get organized, set up your classroom, and engage your middle school ELA students in a realistic way all year long that allows you to enjoy life outside the classroom.
⭐️By the end of the event, you'll know what you're doing this coming school year⭐️

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the MSELA Summit for? The MSELA Summit is designed for an audience of both new AND experienced Middle School ELA Teachers. These are reading and writing (English / Language Arts) teachers who desire actionable, realistic strategies and ideas to implement not just at the beginning of the school year, but all year long!
As Middle School ELA teachers, we have our own special needs that other content areas or grade levels just don't deal with. No one person has all the answers, but pulling together an incredible team of teachers from all over the country with a diverse amount of experiences, knowledge, and backgrounds, will provide the BEST professional opportunity to learn and implement new strategies that grow your students while helping you teach and live with joy this year.
If you are ready to start your teaching journey (or if you've been at this a while and need to restart with a fresh perspective from teacher experts who GET IT), then this virtual conference is perfect for you!
Does it include a Professional Development (PD) certificate? With your All-Access Pass, you get 30+ hours of PD certificates to serve as a personal record of your time. This is a fantastic way to not only learn what you personally want to learn as you start prepping for the new school year, but also to serve as documentation that you can add to your personal continuing education files! The purpose of the PD certificates is to serve as a record of your personal time participating in the MSELA Summit. You continued your education on your own time this summer, so many teachers each year use their certificates and their notes as proof of continuing education. When coupled with the session-specific note-takers that we provide for each session of each day, you have a powerful artifact of what you learned and how you interacted with all the content. Beyond that, it is up to each school, district, or state in terms of how they process hours since each one has its own individual methods. For example, RCDTS is specific to the state of Illinois, the Clock Hour program is specific to Washington, and the PIC number is specific to the state of Michigan. It is each teacher’s responsibility to determine what they need to submit, or how they need to submit it, and to check with their appropriate personnel on matters of submission. If you need further documentation as evidence of your time at the MSELA Summit, please reach out! We’re happy to confirm registration for individual teachers as needed.
