Everyone needs to play! UNM’s Staff Council Work+Life Committee is sponsoring “Learning Together through Play,” a free, hands-on workshop for staff, faculty and students on Thursday, July 24, from noon to 1 p.m. in the SUB Lobo rooms A&B. Light refreshments will be provided.
Discover how play enhances social, emotional and intellectual learning for all ages. Paula Steele, education specialist for the Family Development Program, a College of Education outreach program providing statewide professional development in early childhood education, will facilitate the workshop.
The Family Development Program also manages the Wemagination Center, which promotes the use of recycled materials to enhance learning. Workshop participants will be eligible to join Wemagination as members.
