And what are you reading?:

The Colloque national sur le livre et la lecture will take place on April 3 and 4, 2006. The objective of the conference is to increase awareness among elementary and secondary school staff, educational consultants, librarians, documentation technicians and volunteer parents of the essential role that reading plays in young people’s success.

Participants will receive the pedagogical support they need to adopt effective pedagogical strategies and to fulfill their role as mediators, guides and cultural brokers. The conference will also facilitate the sharing of experiences related to books and reading and the pooling of resources that participants can reuse in their schools.

Finally, this event will make it possible to establish partnerships among the various stakeholders so that the best possible resources are available to students.
