GA Conference 2022 Book Swap

Thanks to Kate Stockings for the suggestion of having a book swap at the GA Conference. 

Many teachers are avid readers, but books (particularly educational books) are not cheap and there are many books that we might feel that once we have read we are happy to let go of.

If you're coming along to the GA Conference - tickets available here, bring along a book or three with a geographical theme that you would like to swap. There will be a table in the Rik Medlik building (the one with the main lecture theatres and cafe) for these. There will be some books added to start the swap.

For each book that you contribute to the table, you can take one to replace it with if you like... or just donate it to the cause.

📚 EXCITING NEWS 📚
At #GAConf22, we'll be running the inaugural #geographyteacher book swap! Inspired by @MrBishopGeog, I asked @GeoBlogs if we could make it happen & voila. So, consider which book(s) you could bring & get excited to take home a new read! Who will take mine?👇 pic.twitter.com/khbZYl0BTV

If you are a social media user, please share the book you are swapping before you put it on the table, and also the book that you gain from the swap. 

At some point in the week I will also place a copy or two of a certain book with beans on the cover onto the table.

Any books left behind at the end will be donated to charity.

If you are not attending the conference, you can still take part in the Book Swap. We've worked out a way that you can do that... Instructions are here. Let us know if you need some help adding a book. 

Also feel free to share books for swapping with the tag: #gaconf22bookswap.

Visit the JamBoard here to take part.
