“Messing About in Science -Making Visible the Thinking and Ideas of David and Frances Hawkins: Supporting Continued Action in Teaching and Learning”

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

We are delighted to share information about Lesley University’s Reggio Inspired Conference Pre-Institute Day…

“Messing About in Science -Making Visible the Thinking and Ideas of David and Frances Hawkins: Supporting Continued Action in Teaching and Learning”

This is truly a dream come true.  This is a day filled with panel presentations, workshops, and dialogue; a day to celebrate first steps towards a traveling exhibit,  an enhanced and expanded website, and the publication of Betty Kellogg’s wonderful book featuring photos and reflections on the Mountain View Center for Environmental Education.

Please forward the attached brochure to colleagues and friends. We hope to see you in Cambridge in April.

Thanks so much for creating the Hawkins Centers of Learning blog – so exciting!

I have saved all of the reflections following the gathering in Kingston in a folder on my desktop – please help me post them on the blog as a way of leaving traces of our wonderful experience for others who are interested in the work of HCoL.
