Dear RETAzens,

The Regional Educational Technology Assistance (RETA) program would like to
invite you to attend our upcoming, free, professional development webinar,
Creating Projects with Scratch.

This is webinar is an introduction to the free programming language,
Scratch, and its website/repository/social area. First, there will be an
introduction to the programming features that are unique to Scratch. After
that, the presenter, Carl Bogardus, will log on to Scratch's website and
give you a tour. At that point, you will see student and teacher projects
and discuss the possibility of classroom use. Finally, you will get the
chance to register on the website (also free!) and look for projects that
you'd like to use as an introduction to Scratch in your classroom.
