To those attending March 6th...

(Psst- if you have not rsvp'd but wish to attend please email Lisa a.s.a.p. to make sure they can accommodate additional attendees.)

Dear colleagues:

Please help us create a "CURRICULUM BAR" by bringing 10 copies of 1 piece of curriculum. The idea is to kill a few trees but have some 1 page examples of projects or assignments that we feel proud of, to share with fellow educators. Please include your CONTACT INFO at the top of the page so the lucky collectors can contact you if wanted. (BRING 10 of the same, LEAVE with 10 different- we can hit the "bar" during refreshment hour)

The afternoon should be lots of fun... inspiring, enriching and transforming. See you soon!


Please see previous blog post for more details!
