OLIS presents:

Bringing in the Boys: Using the Theory of Multiple Intelligences to Plan Programs that Appeal to Boys

Monday, May 04, 2009
9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Cranston Public Library

Presenter(s)/Discussion Leader(s): Amy Brown and Molly Meyers - Worthington, Ohio Libraries

How can you attract boys to library programs? By using Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, you can take topics you already love and create exciting programs that attract boys.

We will show participants how to design programs using the eight intelligences by highlighting two successful programs attended by a large number of boys: Bookopoly (a life-sized board game) and BookTrek (a program that lets kids travel the globe through crafts, food, stories, and songs).

Participants will learn: The eight ways people learn· How to purchase books and devise programs that appeal to boys.

Registration required.

Hello everyone. Just a reminder to come to this sure-to-be fantastic program that OLIS is sponsoring.

Also, are there any volunteers to bring food? Please respond here.

Thanks,

Is the YART listserv entirely gone? I didn't receive advance notice of this meeting as usual (I've neglected WebJunction recently) and am very disappointed to have missed it. Can some one cover the highlights for me?
