The conference committee is seeking CASL members to lead Roundtable discussions or make Show and Tell Presentations at the upcoming CASL/CECA Conference on Oct. 29.

Roundtables are held in the mezzanine area, where people register and sign in. Each roundtable is scheduled for one concurrent session. If you have an area of expertise, such as BYOD, ebooks, Summer Reading programs, Battle of the Books, etc., please consider volunteering to leading a Roundtable session on that topic. As a Roundtable leader, you will facilitate a discussion with other people who are interested in the topic. It's a great way to give something back to your peers, and to share your expertise, and it will only require you to miss one of the concurrent sessions.

Show and Tell presentations are in the Exhibit Hall during mid-day, when no concurrent sessions are scheduled. A table and a monitor will be provided, and this gives you a chance to show off an exciting project you helped students at your school create. Examples of student work are encouraged to be on display, in whatever form they were created in. Anyone who is selected for a Show and Tell presentation gets a 50 percent discount on their conference registration. That discount is limited to one person per presentation.

To volunteer to facilitate a Roundtable, please email me by August 15 at bilmesd@newmilfordps.org.

To apply for a Show and Tell presentation, please complete this brief application by August 15.

In the meantime, enjoy the final stretch of your summer. In my district, we're back at work exactly three weeks from today.
