Target: Speakers on literacy

[Konda Wightman <konda_wightman@EDUC8.ORG>]

Hi,
Has anyone heard of any speakers who could come in and do a workshop for
middle/high school teachers that would help them support reading on those
grade levels?  The topic could include any one or more of the current
strategies, but we are particularly interested in Sustained Silent Reading
and it would have to be a speaker who can really energize the crowd, who may
not be all that excited yet about literacy on the upper grade levels.

Thanks for you help in advance.
