Teacher's Day at Open Books Pilsen
About this Event
Calling all teachers! We are celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with a special Teacher's Day at Open Books Pilsen.
Come out with your teacher friends for an afternoon of food, drinks, networking, and resource sharing focused on supporting ELL students. We will discuss how your students (and you!) navigate barriers to accessing resources, and how you can best support your students in overcoming them. Oh, and of course, all attendees will get FREE BOOKS for your classroom library. Space is limited, so RSVP asap!
