Summer is a time for educators to simultaneously rest up and ramp up for the new school year. The beach or a good book may be able to help you recover from a long school year, but the Integrate team can help you to dream big and plan practically for how you can make next year even better.

That’s why this summer we’re hosting Integrate Summer Session! Come join like-minded educators as we go deep on how to use the Integrate curriculum in your classroom, homeschool, or anywhere else you want to bring the faith and science conversations. We’re offering two interactive workshops that will help to familiarize you with the curriculum and equip you to incorporate the curriculum into your unique setting.

Take a look at the workshop descriptions below and then grab your tickets for one or both of them. We can’t wait to see you there!

Integrate Inside Out – 1:00-2:30PM, EST

This workshop goes deep on on the both the content and instructional design of the Integrate curriculum. Integrate Program Manager Faith Stults will take you on an interactive tour of one unit of the units with an emphasis on modeling the unique structure and instruction practices woven into the curriculum. This workshop will be a valuable introduction to Integrate for anyone while applications will be geared toward classroom teachers.

At Home with Integrate – 3:00-4:30PM, EST

Learn about the basic structure of Integrate and then zoom in on how Integrate was designed specifically with the home education setting in mind. Integrate author and experienced home educator Kendra Terpstra will walk you through the many ways you can incorporate Integrate into your homeschool and give you practical tips for how to engage your kids in meaningful science and faith discussion.

This event is hosted by BioLogos.
