Fund Drive 2005 is now on! Visit http://linguistlist.org/donate.html to donate now!
The Committee on Language in the School Curriculum
is interested in proposing an organized session
(symposium or workshop) for the January 2006
LSA Annual Meeting. To follow up our successful
symposium in January 2005, we would like to
plan a session to include, e.g.,

specific examples of activities for K-12 students to
develop awareness of the nature of language
and how we use it, e.g., in the context of:
language arts curriculum
science curriculum
special projects (e.g., websites, school programs)

common and specific goals for linguistics in the
curriculum at different stages of schooling?-elementary,
middle school, secondary

Have you been involved in linguistics curriculum
development? materials development? a
one-time presentation/activity at your child's school?
Tell us about it. We'd appreciate your ideas for
bringing together people with experiences to
share. Please send us your e-mail response by April 8.
