Participants will get primary and secondary source documents, learn new interactive techniques, talk with the filmmaker, discover how to teach this as a contemporary story, participate in Listening Circles and textual analysis activities, and will receive a free copy of First Light.
Presenters include Adam Mazo, Director of the Upstander Project and Director and Producer of First Light, and the feature-length film, Dawnland, and Mishy Lesser, Ed.D. Upstander Project Learning Director and author of the Coexist Teacher's Guide.

Welcome all Maine teachers! I'm wondering, what are some fun and exciting ways you're covering the Maine Standards? Or there any Maine issues out there where we can help each other?
Hi, Are there any Maine kindergarten teacher's on line. Wondering how many of us are going to Dr. Jean's conference in Portland in May. Just got my confirmation today. I am excited. I saw her before and can hardly wait until may.
Yesssssssssssssss, I am able to go. I am really excited. I only JUST found this site. I spent time on your site today. What a lovely coincidence :>) You have a wonderful site. I like the Leprechaun [sp?] poems and activities.
In Ogunquit, Jonathan's Restaurant, the owners have their child's art work from school framed and on display. It's gorgeous! Imitations of famous art works, done in preschool. I had contact info for the child's classroom teacher, made contact but didn't hear back from her and have lost her e-mail address. I think the school is in Berwick or a Berwick. ?? Is anyone out there familiar with the art work I'm referring to here?
