Greetings teachers, spouses, and blog followers! We are gearing up for the annual Educator Professional Development Trip to
Costa Rica February 17-21.
This year promises to be packed full of activities designed to give our participants:
• Hands-on experience traveling in a group
• Tips on how to be safe while traveling with your students
• Information on how to make your trip fun and engaging
• Ideas on bringing your experience back into the classroom
Along with the interactive workshops, you will be experiencing a taste of Costa Rica. You’ll explore a rainforest on horseback, fly through the trees on zip lines, and snorkel with diverse marine life that lives in the sparkling waters near Tamarindo.
We have created this blog because we want you to share your travel experience with everyone back home. You are more than welcome to share how excited you are for this trip even before you depart. Most importantly, I encourage you to blog during travel. We will have netbooks available for you to use while at the resort so there is no need to pack your own computers.
Also, be sure to friend us on Facebook. After the trip, we will be posting pictures from our adventure for our photo contest. You will need to be a friend to vote for the winner. Be sure to have all of your friends join us on Facebook as well so they can vote, too.
I look forward to reading everyone’s blogs. See you in Costa Rica!
