What do others say about Bill Lombard:

From the AIMS Winter Workshop in 2006

- This was more than I expected - one of the BEST workshops - it was practical and not a lot of theory - it got me excited to want to try these in my class.
 
- ...having the presenter be a current teacher gave the activites validity!
 
- I like that the activities incorporated several skills and could easily be adapted to the appropriate student level!
 
- I was very impressed with the amount of "useful" information and activities we were given.  I know they will definitely be used in my class, maybe my whole school, possibly my district!
