Description

Many Places. Many Lives. Many reasons to get excited!

Join us for a FREE , Virtual teacher training featuring the brand-new Wild Washington curriculum Habitats of Washington: A Kindergarten unit plan where poetry, Washington wildlife, and science come together!

This playful, place-based curriculum is anchored in “Many Places, Many Lives” – a new poetry collection featuring animals that live right here in Washington. In this interactive teacher training we will explore how poetry can open the door to science learning and discover how we can use poetry to spark curiosity about Washington's habitats and the animals that call them home.

Come explore:

  • Washington animals and their habitats
  • Poetry as a pathway into science
  • Science and ELA connections
  • Hands-on kindergarten focused learning experiences
