What:
Spend the day playing games that are easy to implement in a classroom, while tutoring, after school, or in a home situation-most only involve dice and cards. Interventions can be fun and they don't have to be traditional. They do need to be skill specific, however. The day will be spent playing games and connecting these games to Montana Common Core Math Content. Time will be dedicated to gearing up and gearing down skills of a variety of games so that you can use games from your background when you get back to your site.

6th Annual Families in Partnership Early Childhood Fair - Libby - April 28, 2012 - 0 views
-
What:
Families in Partnership Inc. is gearing up for the 6th annual Families in Partnership Early Childhood Fair (formerly The Prenatal to Five Fair). We are looking for community resources who might want to participate by entering to have a table with information and children's activities. The theme for the fair is "Plant a seed and watch it grow." The idea of the early childhood fair is to provide community resources, in one location, at one time, at no cost. The fair is met to be fun, but informational and connect young families to needed community resources. A few of the many opportunities available at the fair are a kids zumba class (MAC), Libby Fire Department puppet show, Frontier Communications kids fingerprint kits, Quasadillas by Rosita's, face painting and more. There are no fees for having a table at the fair, but we require that you do not sell anything at your table; rather, offer free information and children's activities. When:
