You are invited to the 2008 APS Back to School Resource Fair and Reception!
Saturday, Sept. 13, 12:00 - 7:30 p.m.
You will attend professional development sessions, receive tons of free teaching materials in the exhibit hall, enjoy a delicious dinner and receive a FREE educator membership, compliments of APS. You will also have an opportunity to explore two exciting new galleries - Forces of Nature, located in the Sybil B. Harrington Galleries, and My Digital World - and experience a sampling of amazing shows in our recently renovated Dorrance Planetarium.
Sessions cover a variety of subject areas including language arts, science, and social studies presented for grades K-12. Following each session you attend, you will receive a certificate for professional development hours.
This event is for educators (classroom, home school and student teacher) only; please do not bring guests or children - thank you.
