DescriptionExperience the Power of Project-Based Learning with the nationally recognized expert Sallee Beneke!

Preschoolers have a natural curiosity and love to explore their surroundings! Engaging them in the Project Approach means involving them in investigations of topics that capture their interest and are valuable for their understanding. By incorporating this approach into the curriculum, teachers can align with the Nebraska Early Learning Guidelines while fostering a genuine enthusiasm for learning among their students.

Over the course of this two-day workshop, participants will:
· delve into project phases, key experiences, and roles of educators and students
· emphasize the creation of inclusive, high-quality learning environments
· examine a variety of real classroom projects that were designed and
implemented
· actively engage in a guided process for developing a 4-6 week study, including
lesson plans to implement the following school year

As an added bonus, participants will receive Sallee Beneke’s book, The Project Approach for All Learners: A Hands-On Guide for Inclusive Early Childhood Classrooms.
Don’t miss this opportunity to transform your teaching and to ignite passion and curiosity in your students like never before.
