<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">With so much focus on technology these days, we’re going back to the books to look at how literature can be used
in the classroom in innovative ways. We’ll examine the more “traditional” novel and get the inside story from a 2015 Newbery Committee member. We’ll also look at the graphic novel and how its popularity with students can be leveraged in the classroom to enhance
reading instruction and to provide new opportunities to engage with text. In addition, we’ll take some time for small group discussions on topics of interest to Curriculum Materials Center librarians. The day will conclude with a brief tour of the Billy Ireland
Cartoon Library and Museum.</span><span style="font-size:9.5pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
