Global Inspiration
Connecting to others who feel the same passion and commitment to bringing Nature and Place Based Learning to their classrooms can be the difference between "I think I can . . ." and "Yes we can". In the same way young children feel empowered when their voices are shared, so to do educators. I am inspired by real teachers.
