The activity is called "Where in the World is That?" and the teachers are really getting into it, trying to figure out what habitat picture has been attached to their back by asking questions of a partner. Using the information they have to group themselves by location in the world. The Project Learning Tree ice-breaker activity is just the first in a jam-packed, week-long learning experience.
This year's 5th annual Teacher Conservation Workshop: Exploring Forestry and Wildlife in Georgia, has drawn 30 educators representing 19 Georgia counties. The teacher workshop is held each year during the last week of June and is recommended for Georgia educators in grades 5-12. Participants lodge at the Charlie Elliott Wildlife Center in Mansfield, Georgia.
WOW! I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate all the hard work that you, your staff, and the people who were instrumental in putting together the Teacher Conservation Workshop did to make this a special event. It was truly the best workshop I have ever attended! We were treated like royalty!
