What is a ‘Workshop Month’?

To ensure teachers receive their materials at the right time, we ask that you choose a workshop month. You can start the workshop any time within your month. The Virtual Field Trip takes about 3 hours in total and we recommend it be facilitated over the course of a week. As your workshop month approaches, we will send you your workshop kit as well as reminders and tips to help you facilitate your workshop.
