Reignite a Love of Science in 2021

Anyone finding winter a hard time to stay motivated or curate great science lessons for your kids?

I’m so excited to share with you an online workshop from a colleague and friend of mine, Jackie Grundberg of Backpack Sciences. 

She’s helping us start 2021 off on the right foot with our science curriculum!

 I’m ALWAYS open to improving and jumpstarting my science lessons.  Especially since I am not wildlife biologist like 

She’s offering a 3-day workshop, “Reignite Your Science Curriculum” starting January 21st.

You’ll receive one of her most popular lessons (it’s been downloaded by over 1,200 people) “Did you know...I was a host to a parasitic organism?” 

Gross? Sure. But don’t we all know that gross equals cool when it comes to kids! 

That’s how Jackie hooks them in. She loves to incorporate hands-on, inquiry-based learning to engage children and make science experiential.

In this workshop, you’ll receive: 

• A click-and-go video lesson with and a transcript.   Which is great if you like to give the lesson yourself, or if you are preparing school projects with a sleeping child nearby—sssh.

• Several follow-up, hands-on activities focusing on the child’s interest

• Walking through her special framework so you know exactly how to implement a standard lesson plan to make it entirely your own based on your teaching experience, knowledge, confidence and learning environment

• A private Facebook group where you can support, ask questions and communicate with others in the challenge.

The creator, Jackie Grundberg, has over 20 years experience in the education field. She’s a credentialed Montessori educator for grades 1-6, state certified to teach middle school level and high school biology. She’s a former wildlife biologist and a current Montessori teacher educator guiding adults earning their Montessori credentials. She’s also a mom to elementary children, so she understands how busy we all are!

You're probably so excited about welcoming your baby into your home, if you're like most moms you're probably flipping through a few books, you've download some apps, and listening to your friend's and family's experience.  You're probably doing your part to be a star patient for your doctor or midwife.

I totally get that, and this is actually a problem because you're going to get you varied, sometimes conflicting advice that might not even work for your circumstance, and here is the kicker: lots of time's it not evidence-based guidance. 

Instead of that, I want to offer you that working with a doula from your first trimester through your postpartum time is actually going to give you what you really need: cohesive information, expert guidance and the emotional support that every new mom deserves.  It's like having an a doula in your pocket (or purse if that's where you keep your phone)

Hiring a Digital Doula is the best way to have a positive experience during your pregnancy, birth and postpartum.  I would love to be your digital doula.
