Join us on Wednesday, May 17 as we kickoff the 2017-18 Connecticut's Kid Governor (CKG) SM program with a workshop for teachers and administrators at Central Connecticut State University in New Britain.
CKG staff and Social Studies Consultant Steve Armstrong will be on hand to provide an overview of the popular statewide civics program, share tips & tricks for success and highlight case studies of Connecticut schools that took their participation in CKG to the next level.
The 2017-18 CKG Kickoff Workshop is designed for both 5th grade teachers and administrators who are new to the program, as well as those who have previously participated. The workshop will take place from 5 p.m. - 7:15 p.m. in Rooms 123 and 126 in Social Sciences Hall on the CCSU campus (CCSU campus map).
We ask those that are interested in attending to please register for this workshop by this Friday, May 12. You can quickly register here.
Each attendee will receive a printed copy of the
CKG "Toolkit for Classes Nominating a Candidate and Voting" (lesson plans). The first 25 registrants will receive a free, autographed copy of E is for Election Day by Gloria Davis. Pizza and refreshments will be served.
