Workshops are starting to fill for our 29th annual teachers conference. Be sure to register soon in order to guarantee yourself a spot in mid-October.

We have finally acquired our own domain on the web. This address should be easier for everyone to remember and to type into their browser. Please be sure to update/add this URL to your bookmarks.

You may already know that the T.F.L.C. organizes one of the best annual Fall PD opportunities for teachers. We have been doing so now for almost 30 years. You may not be aware of the other activities of this busy committee, so we invite you to explore this site and perhaps even subscribe to our RSS feed (upper right hand corner) in your newsreader.

We’ve got BIG plans for our 30th anniversary in 2011. Don’t miss a thing. Visit here often.

The Stratford Shakespeare Festival’s flagship education program is designed to support the vital work of teaching Shakespeare in today’s classrooms.

William Shakespeare never intended to publish his plays; he wrote scripts, not books. For us, the real value of his plays lies, as it did for him, in their production on the stage.

The Teaching Shakespeare School shows teachers how to approach these plays not as literature but as theatre. The Registration deadline is April 30, 2010.

For more information on the Teaching Shakespeare School, go here.

As we have done in the past, this year we will continue to NOT mail out conference related information. This helps lower our costs and makes it possible for us to offer you an affordable conference fee. The traditional conference brochure has been re-designed to print easily on your printer and can be downloaded from here.

Thanks for your continued cooperation and understanding as we move towards more earth friendly conference promotion options. Feel free to use the “Comments” option on this post to share your opinion.
