Workshop
and Coaching Options
- Getting
Started With Journey North (full-day or multi-day workshops; hourly
coaching)
This workshop will prepare teachers to implement Journey North by
using a sampling of activities from the three main studies: Sunlight
and the Seasons (Mystery Class Project), Plants and the Seasons (Tulip
Project) and Migrations and the Seasons (Monarch Project). It also introduces
the instructional model and provides planning support for using Journey
North to meet curriculum standards.
- Custom
Workshops (various lengths)
Journey North can a provide custom-designed workshop (or a series) that
meets local instructional goals and standards. You may choose to focus
on one or more of Journey North's project themes (e.g., Monarch Migrations
and Symbolic Monarchs), or request a session with a specific instructional
focus (e.g., Journey North as a Central Curriculum Theme). We will work
with you to design a unique session that meets your needs.
