PSMLA 2022

Special thanks to Cambridge University Press for the opportunity to be at their table in the Exhibit Hall and share ways that I have been able to incorporate Latin across the curriculum using Minimus (published by CUP) and being able to share information about NCLG, ACL, ETC, and the opportunities available to teachers. Additional thanks to Cambridge University Press, Ancient Coins for Education, and StickTogether (pixel art project which connects nicely to mosaics) for donating prizes for a table raffle. (Winner pictured, top right). Also, ACL member, Junko Yamamoto, was in charge of the exhibitors for the conference and she made sure we had a great location for the CUP table. At the event, I was able to connect with many teachers to promote Latin, distribute ACL brochures and NCLG bookmarks, and share information about the NCLG GRANTS as well as various Exams sponsored by ACL.

Throughout the conference, I posted to social media and tagged our Classics organizations. I also shared a copy of the booklet on Black Classicists by Dr. Ronnick and it was donated at the end of the conference to a teacher who was very interested in sharing it with her department. CUP also donated the books at the table and interested teachers stopped by at the close of the conference to pick up a book they wanted from the exhibit.  The organizers of the conference wished to thank CUP for sponsoring a table this year, and thanked both CUP and ACL for sponsoring part of the appetizers for the anniversary year. There were many positive comments for the ideas that could be adapted for use with other languages. Next year’s conference is closer to Pittsburgh and I hope to have the opportunity to attend again.
