Dear colleagues, As part of the AJL Convention in Cleveland, we are arranging an on-going Display of Best Practices to take place adjacent to the exhibits areas. This will be an opportunity for us to share with each other some of our most successful endeavors (lessons, projects, displays, programs) and learn from one another in a more informal and flexible setting. As in Cambridge, MA in 2006, the focus will be on day schools; displays from others who work in an educational capacity are welcomed, as space allows.
We hope that many of you will be able to contribute! Both table space and easel space will be available. Please feel free to bring binders, poster board, display boards, powerpoint, podcasts, websites, portfolios, etc. to share with the rest of us. (Please note that we will not have live internet or be able to supply any technology, but you can certainly bring captured webpages on your own computer or display printouts...) You can also help out by volunteering with the set up and break down as well as by serving as a docent for a specific timeframe. If you are interested in contributing a display, please reserve space with a reply including: * Format of display (poster/table space) -- if you have dimensions, we certainly won't complain... * Grade level and/or audience addressed in display * Setting (k-6/5-12/7-12/university/museum/synagogue/community library/archive/etc.) * Best way to get in touch with you to confirm that there is available space for your display New this year, we will also make available a collection of any lesson plans and/or handouts that are provided to the Display. Thank you in advance for your participation in making this event happen!
