Inspiring Secondary Students to be Travelers

1.5 CPDs, Run Time: 52:51

Miriam Beard said that, "Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living." Exploring new environments is vital to the Montessori Secondary I curriculum. In this workshop we will learn how to design field experiences that inspire our students to be "travelers," and address the logistics of traveling with groups of students.
