Dear Colleagues, Spring is in full swing, and it’s hard to believe that summer is just around the corner! While we look forward to summer as a wonderful time to enjoy the company of friends and family and take advantage of the lovely outdoors, for those of us in the field of education, it’s also a time to step back and reflect on the previous year. What are we proud of? What areas will need some more attention in the coming year? How can we go about preparing to address some of the obstacles we’ve faced? We invite you to build on your practice this summer by taking on new and exciting challenges in some of our Continuing Professional Studies courses. Our course offerings cover a range of topics and will help you deepen your skills as an educator by exploring practical strategies strongly grounded in theory. Examples include Courageous Leader (p.8), Play Techniques for Early Childhood Settings (p.3), and Fractions, Decimals, and Percents (p.7), among others.
