Come join Chicago’s Goethe-Institut
and the Concordia Language Villages in Bemidji, MN, for the exciting weekend
seminar “Bringing Nature and the Environment into the German Classroom” this
May. In pursuit of cultural competency,
this seminar introduces teachers of German to Waldsee’s content-based, immersion approach to language learning
and teaching. Time is scheduled for
seminar participants to observe Waldsee
staff convey alternative energy content through hands-on activities with high
school participants on-site. Teachers
will also partner with Waldsee staff
and practice innovative teaching methods while co-teaching environmental
activities applicable to classroom settings.
Participants stay in the award winning, super energy-efficient Waldsee BioHaus; the latest addition to Waldsee’s
authentic German Language Village showcasing modern German living and
architecture.
