Here they have provided practical, reflective, student-centered teaching moves that you can use to develop an intentional, joy-filled conferring practice.To Know and Nurture a Reader: Conferring with Confidence and Joy is a get-going guide to conferring. The book includes step-by-step guidance that is also considerate of time and other classroom challenges, as well as:

Numerous tools such as guiding questions, reproducible planning and note-taking documents;

Classroom vignettes that pull you close to a reader and teacher in a conference setting;

Video clips of classroom conferences to show what conferring looks like in action.
