Registration Form – Keystone Engage
TESTIMONIALS

“I learned that making mistakes is just as important as not making mistakes.”
“I loved watching today’s lessons. Modeling the lessons was very helpful and valuable for me as a teacher…the lessons were engaging in all subject areas (math, science, ELA).”
“This conference does a phenomenal job preparing students for post-high school life. Students are learning and practicing public speaking, critical thinking skills and taking a stance on key historical issues. Their experience is unlike any other they will have in this realm.”
“(Model United Nations) taught me more about how to formulate questions better and how to form better arguments.”
“(In future writing) I will think about my story and really describe the characters I write about.”
“Thank you Keystone for the awesome science day!”
“I definitely felt more comfortable because I was in an environment where, if I made a mistake, it was not a big deal. The teachers corrected my French and moved on. Through the teachers giving us mini-lessons mixed in with the activities, I was able to pick up on the grammar tricks that I had been unaware of.”
“The exposure to native speakers (is most valuable). I’m a gringa. This gives students an idea of the mental energy needed to comprehend. My own Spanish got some practice too.”
“The opportunity to speak French all day and to experience French speakers who come from la francophonic is invaluable. Just wonderful. This particular workshop is unique in that it introduces students to accents and cultures through la francophone in addition to France and Canada.”
“Some students spoke French very well and it was fun to be able to chat with them and learn interesting things about them.”
“I learned that you really need to be specific with your details and that it will help you write more interesting stories.”
I liked learning about the Underground Railroad. It was like you were there when it was happening.
I learned a lot about history and got to work with people I didn’t know.
I learned how to measure the height of things with a protractor and meter stick.
We heard stories from reporters and film makers who put themselves into situations dealing with current events.
It has let me identify fake news an understand stories based on who they benefit.
It was a fun way to write. It was risk free so it took the stress off. As a result, kids could enjoy the writing process rather than have it feel like work.
