    We are off to an excellent start with our Fall Institute!  Week 2 is the Week that participants will be creating your Album in the TPS Teachers Network.  At this time, it is a work in progress and your task is:

    1. Create an album in this group!
    2. Add a Title
    3. Write a Description that names a topic and describes your audience and purpose.
    4. Ask a Question if you need help from facilitators, Network Mentors or classmates.

    We now have 12 albums created by current participants with more to come.  The topics are varied and the authors represent pre-service, in-service, curriculum developers, museum educators and Library of Congress interns. We invite our Network friends to browse these creative album titles and description.  Please come back as more or added and next week when the authors will be adding primary sources and teaching notes!
