IATE Newsletter

The IATE Newsletter is published twice each year, arriving in members’ mailboxes in August and March. In addition to providing information about the annual conference, the Newsletter includes a number of standard informational items, including messages from the IATE president and executive secretary; news from the IATE districts; calls for papers; and announcements.

Also included in each issue are member-generated features on topics of interest to English/Language Arts teachers in the state of Illinois. Especially welcome are short (up to 1200 words) essays and reflections on innovative approaches to teaching English/Language Arts and innovative uses of technology in the English/Language Arts classroom.

Finally, the Newsletter strives to recognize IATE members who have earned teaching-related awards, and we ask IATE members to notify us when they and/or their IATE-member colleagues are honored in this way.

The submission of short essays devoted to classroom strategies and experiences and/or the use of technology in the English/Language Arts classroom is always welcome. Send submissions or inquiries to Claire Lamonica.
