<p class="MsoNormal">There’s still space available for library staff to attend the NASA @ My Library workshop! We’ll be going over the activities in the kit, learning additional space STEM activities and how to adapt them for different age groups/family programming.
Also, we’ll take a look at how to use telescopes (psst! We might be getting a couple for circulation come this Fall…).

<p class="MsoNormal">Laurie Bone, Senior Curator of Programs at Sloan Museum and Longway Planetarium, will be providing a hands-on workshop for public library staff. These STEM workshops will cover the following content:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Overview of relevant astronomy terms and concepts<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Strategies for effective deliver of STEM based activities for kids of all ages (children, teen, adults, families)<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Ideas for Astronomy activities that librarians can use while developing their program plan<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">Materials to support at least one of the activities will be provided for each library. (1 per library in attendance)
<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal">Materials will be provided for each participant to do the activities. This provides an opportunity for the librarians to practice doing the activity, have conversation with the group to identify ways to expand or customize the activity
to better fit individual needs, and will provide each participant with a sample project for use in programming. NASA Facilitation kits will be available in the near feature from LM for libraries to borrow. If the workshop nearest you is full, you can either
join the waitlist or attend at a different location. Cost is $25/person and we have a strict cap on attendance & do expect the majority of these workshops to fill-up. If you are unable to attend after registering, please contact Mary Anne Smith ASAP at 517-373-1580
or <a href="mailto:SmithM99@michigan.gov">SmithM99@michigan.gov</a> to cancel and allow someone from the waitlist to attend.
