Join facilitator Jennifer DuBey for a hands-on, engaging, professional development workshop for teachers and non-formal educators. We’ll spend our day discussing and practicing tips and tricks to engage learners of all ages with experiences in nature through interactive activities. At the conclusion, you will leave with resources from Project Learning Tree (PLT) to help you create interdisciplinary lesson plans and programming focused around nature, conservation, and social issues that will excite audiences of all ages.

During the Professional Development workshop, we will focus on how to use the guides, experience hands-on activities from a student perspective, and correlate activities to Michigan Science Standards (NGSS).

 Workshop fees cover Project Learning Tree (PLT) guides and other resources to help you get started in your classroom. Light snacks provided. Daily admission to Dow Gardens is included with this workshop. Hours are 9AM - 8PM.
