Create Make Learn Summer Institute - Early Bird Countdown

I just want to invite everyone to join us  the week of August 1 in beautiful Burlington Vermont  for the Create Make Learn Summer Institute where 50 educators will converge to experience a week of creating, making, and learning together.

This will be the fifth consecutive year of professional development aimed at fueling creativity and innovation in our schools by first experiencing it yourself in a very personal way.


What will you Make this Summer?
