COINS IN THE CLASSROOM TRAINING AT ANA SUMMER SEMINAR

Know a teacher?  Encourage them to attend the American Numismatic
Association's "Coins in the Classroom" program. The following is from
an ANA press release:

"Now, teachers can learn to incorporate coins and paper money into
lessons by taking the course June 30-July 6 during the American
Numismatic Association's Summer Seminar in Colorado Springs. If you
know a teacher, spread the word about this valuable learning tool.

"Math, social studies, language arts and economics teachers across
the country can attest to Coins in the Classroom's effectiveness.

"One is eighth-grade math teacher Margaret Reed, of Brazosport
Independent School District in Texas. After taking Coins in the
Classroom during last year's Summer Seminar, Reed began using coins
as a springboard for lessons on the history of mathematics,
percentages and more.
