Just a reminder that teachers have two chances to talk with Library of Congress education specialists at conferences this week.
If you’re attending the National Council for the Social Studies in Seattle, Washington from November 16-18 or the National Council of Teachers in English in Las Vegas, Nevada from November 15-18 stop by to see us! The Library of Congress will have a booth in the exhibit hall and will be presenting sessions during the conferences.
The first 25 subscribers of the Teaching with the Library of Congress blog visiting us at our booth at each conference will receive a special gift. Just show this message on your mobile device or bring a printed copy to our booth in the exhibit hall.
Our presentations are:
