That Busy Time of Year... the one before June

On the calendar:


May 15: the Learning Team celebration is now the Professional Learning Exchange! As always, in the gym at Winslow, from 3:30 - 5:00 pm.
With a different format this year, be sure to look for yours truly holding down the fort on behalf of the Green Teachers Network. https://my43.sd43.bc.ca/departments/staffdev/Pages/LearningExchange.aspx

May 22: The Vancouver Aquarium and the Institute for Environmental Learning (and others, I'm sure) are co-hosting a pechakucha-style evening (No, I can't pronounce that. Can you?)  "...for teachers to present their experiences with incorporating environmental learning into their curriculum to other middle and high school teachers." Interested in joining us? I'll be there sharing my Home Ec (mis)adventures.  www.eco-learning.org/network/events. They're going to let us play in the Wet Lab afterwards!

May 25: The Environmental Educator's PSA is holding their AGM at the Fraser River Discovery Centre in New Westminster from 11 - 2. Come and check out the Discovery Centre, enjoy a free lunch and chat with other educators who share an interest in environmental teaching and learning. You don't need to be an EEPSA member to attend, but you do if you want to vote, or run for an Executive position. http://eepsa.org/news/

Late May or early June: Green Drinks to discuss Pro D opportunities and plans for next year, and to add some new faces to the LSA executive. Check your email for details, or just email Laurelei. You know where to find me.

Guilty as charged and pleased to share my procrastinations with you.
