The experience was unforgettable! |

“Getting to observe the classrooms, teachers, and children in action was so beneficial.
The authentic conversations and honest questions and reflection. The reflective questioning and helping to redirect to find our own answers. When I return to to my own context, I will be questioning the norm, observing, and listening to the children to make decisions for the classroom and materials that will extend their engagement and understanding.” - Study Tour Participant |
