*+++++** DIFFERENTIATED INSTRUCTION** * *+++++*
*
*Rachel Lipkin will present "Differentiated Instruction" (DI) on 
Wednesday evening, April 25, at 7:30 p.m. at the Ripley building. 
Differentiated Instruction is a method on teaching that identifies 
learning types and provides suggestions for  instructing these learners. 
DI allows students to access information  in whole-class, small group, 
and individual settings. This workshop will introduce the philosophy and 
terminology associated with this popular educational theory. This will 
be a highly informative workshop of interest to all parents. Sponsored 
by Concord Special Education Parent Advisory Committee (SPED PAC).  


*+++++** LIBRARY LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS** * *+++++*
*
*We are interested in having a few volunteer teens to help us spruce our 
grounds prior to this coming Monday's parade and celebration. Work 
consists of walking our grounds and removing papers left from this 
winter. We'll supply work gloves. For more information, please contact 
Guy Paquin, head custodian, at 978-318-3363 or e-mail gpaquin at minlib.net

*On Saturday, May 12, (rain date is Sunday, May 13) CCHS Baseball 
players will rake, plant bulbs, spread mulch, and perform light yard 
work for residents of Concord and Carlisle.  Players will supply rakes, 
blowers, and shovels as needed (no ladders or heavy machinery). The fee 
is $10 per player per hour (minimum of two players for three hours 
each). All proceeds will benefit the CCHS Baseball program. Call Karen
