A butterfly at Brister’s Hill

I blogged about this workshop last summer when I attended, (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday) and I’m happy to recommend it for others this year.

Participants are encouraged to implement a project-based learning experience in their home schools as a result of their experience. This isn’t hard, because we left Walden very enthusiastic about the possibilities! My project is not quite 100% yet. I keep thinking of things I’d like to add.

Applications are now being accepted. Good luck!
