2009 Workshop in the Abbe Museum's
Community Gallery in Bar Harbor, Maine
The Abbe Museum's teacher workshops are designed to help Maine teachers meet the requirements of LD 291 and related Maine Learning Results. Providing content, resources and creative ways to use these resources in the classroom, topics for workshops are selected based on requests from educators on evaluation forms and surveys. Workshop presenters include Wabanaki and Abbe Museum educators and content specialists.
Generally, the workshops will be broken down into two sessions covering two topics. After each session, an activity that teachers can recreate in the classroom, or a brainstorming session for new ideas to apply the content in the classroom, will take place. Teachers are encouraged to stay for the entire day (7 contact hours), but have the option of attending just the morning or afternoon session.
Workshops are open to teachers from all grade levels, disciplines, and regions of Maine.
