Friday Highlights November 16, 2012
Welcome back to the NAGC Convention and the first full day of sessions and more!
Don’t forget to use Base Camp as your location for learning and preparing your action plan for returning to school on Monday. Make a point to talk to the exhibitors and discover a new resource or tool, or two or three! Base Camp is also your destination for the Mensa Mind Games break from 2:50 PM to 3:50 PM. Snacks will be available and you
can meet with colleagues while trying a few brain bending games and puzzles. Thanks also to SimplyFun for providing toys that you can take for a test drive. Each year at NAGC Convention, we celebrate the legacy of a leader in our field. You are invited to share in a dialogue with master educator and scholar Sandra N. Kaplan. The sessions will be taped as part of the Conceptual Foundations “Portraits in Gifted Education” series. It’s a night for networking as the NAGC Networks offer opportunities to socialize. Check out pages xxiii-xv for details.
