LEARNING CONFERENCE
- FOSTERING
CONNECTIONS
Willy Wood
Introduction
 Based in Columbia, MO, Willy Wood is an educator
and author who directs Open Mind Technologies and
focuses on advanced visualization strategies that
enable students to memorize materials they study.
Willy Wood also serves as the coordinator for the
Missouri Early Learning Conference.
The conference focuses on the specific needs and
aspirations of primary-grade and preschool teachers.
The challenges of motivating young children to learn
can be significant. For this reason, it is important for
teachers to recharge by connecting with other
educators and gaining inspiration from presenters who
focus on their specific areas of expertise.
Missouri Early Learning
Conference
 The 2016 conference included a well-known math
blogger, as well as a pair of early childhood
experts focused on ensuring that preschool kids
achieve success. Other participants included the
renowned children’s book author Laura Numeroff
and “America’s Leading Reading Ambassador”
Danny Brassell.
Designed for pre-K through third-grade teachers,
the well-attended conference also offered
breakout sessions on topics such as digital
curiosity, bully prevention strategies, and wordless
picture books as a way of instilling literacy skills.
