Visual Art teachers will learn developmentally appropriate pedagogical approaches to teaching art to our youngest learners. As a culmination of their work\, participants will create a presentation to share with their school community. \nThe training is free and each team selected will receive $500 worth of equipment and supplies for their classroom. These training will be offer in three regions of the state on the following dates: \nNorthern cohort at the University of Maine\, Presque Isle campus (Nov. 17th\, Feb. 15th\, April 12th) \nCentral cohort at Educare in Waterville (Nov. 7th\, Feb. 6th\, April 3rd) \nSouthern cohort at Southern Maine Community College ( 3rd\, February 9th\, April 6th) \nIf you are interested in participating fill out an application using the links listed above.

SUMMARY:Generational Poverty PM Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Afternoon session description\n(for faculty\, administrators\, and community agencies) \nHeld at the UMPI Campus Center\, MPR Room \nDr. Donna M. Beegle grew up in generational\, migrant labor poverty. Today she will share an insider perspective on how educators and social service professionals can improve outcomes for children and families living in the crisis of poverty. A child born into poverty today is less likely to gain an education than a child born into privilege. Dr. Beegle will illuminate practical strategies for changing statistics and improving lives of children and families in poverty in meaningful\, repeatable\, and systemic ways. Her school programs and Opportunity Community Model have been implemented in multiple communities across the United States\, including K-12 districts as well as at the college level. \nFor more information about Dr. Donna Beegle and her work\, please visit www.combarriers.com. \n  \nRegistration deadline: Wednesday\, April 5\, 2017. \nBooks will be available for $25.00 at the session. \nSee Poverty… Be the Difference by Dr. Donna M. Beegle\n
