Participants will learn practical management strategies for organizing tools and techniques for seamlessly integrating hands-on discovery into whole-group, small-group, and independent learning environments. Educators will have an opportunity to create a versatile toolkit for making learning more tactile, engaging, and accessible for all students. Location: Bishop Room - McKinley
