Why do you facilitate PLT workshops for educators? - PLT is a great curriculum; workshops are well organized and stimulating.  Workshops are fulfilling to be involved with!  I’m interested in providing a stimulating learning experience that contributes to a teacher’s interest in their natural resources and environment so they can then share with their students.
