If you happen to be in the Chicago area at the end of January (It's likely because you chose to live in the area - not the height of tourist season for sure!), The Chicago Metro Association for the Education of Young Children is hosting their annual conference at McCormick Place January 31-February 1, 2014. Gail Conway and her crew always stage a quality conference. I will be presenting a half day session on technology use with young children on Thursday morning with Tracey Conners from the great state of Wis-Connnn-sin (pronounced like Discount Daaable-check) Tracey is a principal and has some great ideas about how to use iPads in schools. Me? I'll be tapping into the collective genius of the audience to once and for all settle the question, "How should we be using technology with our youngest learners?" Hope to see you there.
Here is the link to the conference if you are interested in learning more, and hopefully attending:
