I posted this to the Origins list... and tried posting it here too - but the "event-support alias" is not on the edu-list list, so was rejected....

...so I'm sending it again.  

Again, apologies for those who will see this twice - I do want to get the most wisdom though.

thanks
Carol

I apologize for the cross posting, but I would like to get wisdom from many sources.

We are doing Looney for Learning at Origins.  It will be a lot like last year:

* free flowing
* jump in when you have something to say
* introduce our games for the first hour
* toss out snippets of how they work in class
* have the 2nd hour be a "now let's learn how to play these games!" time

I'd like to have some (1-3) of our lesson plans available for teachers to pick up - and info on how to find more.

My questions are:

* Which lesson plans from here should we copy out for handouts:
http://www.looneylabs.com/Academy/LessonPlans.html

* How MANY do you think we'll need?  Will we need one for each teacher, or will not every teacher take every lesson plan?  

Last year we packed the place - 50-60 teachers at one session.  I'm guessing we might have between 75-100 teachers between them both.  That's a LOT of paper to print out if we're not going to use it all, so I'm trying to get some wisdom from ya'll as to what would be best

thanks!!

Carol
