Rockin' Kindergarten for over 30 years!

Interested in Presenting?

We are now accepting presentation applications for the 2018 PK1 Conference. One emphasis that we would like to see addressed this coming year is “STREAM” (Science, Technology, “Reading”, Engineering, Art & Math)! Research on this topic would also be welcome; preference is always given to proposals by “practitioners”, those in the ECE classroom.

If you are interested in presenting please click here to reach our online application. The steps are as follows… 1. Create an account and password. (If you’ve already created an account and can’t remember the password, email the CKA office and we will send you a password reset link.) 2. Create a contact then hit submit. 3. Click on the Presentation Submission tab and follow the directions.

We are always interested in new faces and ideas! Along with play, we are also interested in areas related to Common Core Standards, Early Language Learning and critical thinking skills. The application deadline is Friday, May 26th.
