Teachers to be taught at Manchester workshop

Award-winning musician-author Jim Gill will teach teachers how to engage students in a Manchester College workshop on Feb. 12, from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m., in the Flory Auditorium, in the Science Center.

Area educators of pre-schoolers through third-graders are invited to this session of active participation and information gleaned from theory and practice.

Gill's newest book, "A Soup Opera" is a 2010 Notable Book and Recording of the American Library Association. He has produced five award-winning CDs of music play for classrooms, playrooms and family rooms and has authored two picture books.

The workshop is sponsored by the Education Department of Manchester College and is part of its annual Early Learner Conference.

There is a cost for the workshop.
