Teachers for Social Justice (TSJ) of Chicago presents the 7th annual Teaching For Justice CURRICULUM FAIR.

Saturday, November 10.
11-5PM
Orozco Academy
1940 W. 18th Street
Chicago, IL 60608

The Teaching for Social Justice Curriculum Fair is like a Science or History Fair, except volunteer educators "present" and share ideas for bringing topics of social justice into the classroom. SWYC Youth from Generation Y will be sharing resources at an informational booth in the main room.

The day's schedule also features Education for Liberation-oriented workshops, resource tables, lunch, and an open forum on "Teachers as Activists" (1-2:45PM).

Join us on November 10 for this exchange of resources and spirited discussion between educators, students, and community leaders from throughout the Midwest. This event, co-sponsored by Rethinking Schools Magazine (www.rethinkingschools.org), is organized entirely by teacher and student volunteers.
