Welcome to EIU Student
Reading Council .... a
student organization for pre-service teachers, developed by
future teachers for future teachers at Eastern Illinois
University.
Our number one
goal at SRC is to give you the foundation that will one day
motivate you to become involved in the many professional
organizations that exist for teachers in the workplace
today. At each meeting we provide you with valid
experiences related to teaching language arts, such as: author
studies; theme studies; conversations with author's themselves,
and much more! There are also meetings of the East Central EIU
Reading Council (our parent organization) which you can attend
for a meeting credit from SRC. This gives you actual experience
as to what local councils of professional organizations are
actually like. Read our brochure to learn more about East Central-EIU Reading Council and
the events planned for the school year. Look for the current EIU
Reading Council Newsletter sent
online to members. You can also learn more on the East
Central EIU Reading Council fan page on Facebook.
With
that
in
mind,
take
some
time to explore our web site. You will find information about
joining the SRC; information about contacting SRC officers; you
can check the calendar for upcoming events and explore helpful
links. Remember, we're always available to answer any questions
you might have.....so don't hesitate to contact us.
