Educator Workshop

Workshop 3:15 – 4:15 p.m.;

Planning Period 4:15 – 5:00 p.m.

How can we convey to every child that they can have a dream for themselves, their community, and their world?
This year, many local schools have incorporated the concept of hopes and dreams into their school curriculum. As a part of this initiative, every child is asked to articulate a dream for themselves. In this theme-based workshop, we will work in teams to explore how we can connect object-based learning in the galleries to this theme of "dream-making."
