>
> What’s the BIG Idea? ™ Making Math and Science Come Alive in Your Library –Public Library Children’s Librarians Needed Who Work with Children in K - Gr. 3 for 6-Hour Training
>
> The What’s the BIG Idea? ™ Program was developed by Mother Goose Programs™/Vermont Center for the Book with funding provided by the National Science Foundation. As part of the grant, they have asked 10 state library systems from the US to be part of the program by doing a series of What’s the BIG Idea? ™ train-the-trainers workshops.
>
> The goal of the program is to get kids in K – Grade 3 and their families excited about using math and science concepts through the ongoing story hour programming in libraries. NJ is participating in this program by having one librarian train three others and then they in turn train 20 additional librarians. The librarians who have been trained need to incorporate the What’s the BIG Idea? ™ activities in 8 of their regular library programs by the end of September 2009 and report this to Mother Goose Programs™. The 20 librarians will get a manual and activity materials worth over $300 for their libraries.
>
> The trainings for the 20 librarians have to be completed by April 15, 2009. The trainings will be conducted in 2 half-day sessions.
> If you are interested in receiving the training, the deadline is February 27, 2009 to notify Sharon Rawlins, Youth Services Consultant, NJSL, sraw...@njstatelib.org, 609-278-2640 ext. 116.
