I think all the sessions could be applicable to someone just starting out. Because of our numbers, it's possible some sessions may fill up, so that may help you decide. :-p What do you mean with filling up? Do we sign up for each session we want to go to beforehand? Or how does that work? Thanks, Friederike RE: 2016 AO Conference!!! SAVE THE DATE!!!! - lklivingston - 04-28-2016 Friederike, we don't know yet how we'll handle the breakouts. Probably you will sign up when you arrive. We can have 50+ people in each, except maybe Swedish drill. I plan to send out a poll soon! RE: 2016 AO Conference!!! SAVE THE DATE!!!! - Mrs.Honey - 04-28-2016 If you make a poll to ask if Swedish Drill and Nature Study classes should be repeated at 4:00 I would wholeheartedly vote, "Yes!" I would love to attend both. RE: 2016 AO Conference!!!

I'm looking over the schedule and would love some suggestions as to what breakout sessions I should take. I'd love to learn more detailed information about particular subjects, Nature Study for example, however the Overview and Year 1, Year 2, etc. might be more important for me to be in. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! I'm doing overview, music, atmosphere, foreign language. Probably. RE: 2016 AO Conference!!!

I would love to attend both. I second this!! Is "Overview" considered separately from the year it is listed with? Meaning, can one go to just the overview part and then another session? I was assuming not, but want to double-check. RE: 2016 AO Conference!!!

The first part covers an overview of Years 1/2/3 (or 4/5/6, or 7/8/9, or 10/11/12) and then Year 1 (or 4, or 7, or 10). The second part (second hour?) covers Years 2/3 (or 5/6, 8/9, or 11/12). It's set up so you can attend just the first or second part. I don't know if I'm explaining that very well. It makes perfect sense in my head! RE: 2016 AO Conference!!!

Atmosphere, Discipline & Life (or Reading if was something I struggled with) 4. Foreign Language 2016 AO Conference!!!

I figure you might miss part of Nature Study...assuming it would run the same amount of time as both the Overview and Year 1 combined. Is that right? RE: 2016 AO Conference!!! SAVE THE DATE!!!! - lklivingston - 04-28-2016 You couldn't do both Year 1 and something else at that timeslot. Overview 1-3 and Year 1 are a unit, one session. 2016 AO Conference!!!
