NCTE Convention this November

On November 19-22, McNeill Designs will be a part of the annual  NCTE Convention, held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

For those of you not familiar with NCTE, the National Council of Teachers of English is a dynamic group of educators devoted to improving the teaching and learning of English and the language arts at all levels of education. And, I am happy to report, NCTE members love McNeill Designs’ language game You’ve been Sentenced! and often use it, not just for fun in the classroom, but as a teaching tool, as well. Pretty heady stuff!

For anyone interested in attending, the Early Registration Deadline has been extended to October 30th. If you have not yet registered, you still have time to take advantage of the early registration discount. Register by Friday, October 30, and save $30 on your registration fee.

The Convention offers many workshops and some very exciting speakers. I am particularly excited to meet Sharon Draper, National Teacher of the Year and five-time winner of the Coretta Scott King Literary Award!
