Overview

Designed to prepare educators to implement a high quality service-learning project using tools and strategies from our KIDS As Planners Guidebook. During this workshop participants will have time to plan how to integrate service-learning in to their teaching environment and receive feedback on their ideas. We can work with you to tailor this session around a specific content area (e.g. language arts, STEM) or a theme (e.g. health, environment).
