Anyone been on the Leonardo Effect creative curriculum training?

I'm on it on the training day and wondering what to expect.

Gone is our usually relatively relaxed training day sorting out diary dates and some in-house training then some classroom time.

Instead, I've got a packed itinerary including things like 'physical literacy' and 'exploring materials'.

Any ideas? I've googled them, but their site gives no real clues.

Course notes also say 'dress casually and consider bringing a camera'.

What?

feedback please!

It was good, actually. The consultants were advocating making strong links between science skills and art skills to support learning. Nothing massively new.

Start a topic with a 'wow' activity. Let the children explore their theme in creative ways. Raise questions. Allow them time to explore/research their questions. Present their learning in a creative way.

I'm early years, it sounds good!
