Please consider joining us for an environmental education summer institute for educators (and those preparing to be educators) in Belize July 6-14, 2013. ?The cost is about 2,500 (includes tuition as well as room and board at the famous Chaa Creek Resort!) plus airfare.
The program is designed for practicing teachers & administrators, as well as graduate students and upper level undergraduate teacher candidates. ?The U.S. team of teachers will work with Belizean educators for a week in July at the beautiful Chaa Creek Jungle resort (http://www.chaacreek.com/) to share curriculum ideas and lesson and learn and discuss environmental issues and local ecology. This year, like last year, the institute will focus on a literacy campaign, spearheaded by the U.S. Ambassador in Belize and his wife, designed around ?Pat the Cat: A Jaguar?s Journey?. This bilingual book, co-written by children from Belize and Milwaukee, WI about Pat a ?problem? Belizean jaguar. The Ambassador?s wife, ?Barbara Thummalapally , as well as the author of the book, Nancy Kennedy, are expected to participate in the institute as well. Please ?check out an article just published in M magazine about the ??Pat the Cat? literacy campaign on pages 80-82 ?http://www.
