The "Messing About with Teaching" workshops are temporarily paused due to COVID-19. Please join us for one of our virtual offerings.
We invite you to join us for a monthly workshop series, inspired by the work of Frances and David Hawkins, who proposed that teachers deserve time and space to deepen their teaching practices through hands-on work with materials.
“Messing About With Teaching” Workshops provide opportunities for educators to explore 21st century education, gain understandings of the properties and affordances of materials, and strengthen relationships with teachers and colleagues.
In collaboration with Hawkins Centers of Learning.
Workshops are held on the 3rd Tuesday of the month, 6pm to 8pm. Registration fee is $20 / person / workshop.
Register for a whole season and receive a 10% discount on fees.
Each workshop includes a 2 hour PD clock hour certificate and refreshments.
