Elachee's Professional
Learning Unit (PLU) courses help teachers improve their classroom
instruction while increasing their appreciation and understanding
of the natural world.
Each combines classroom and field activities
and resources that are entertaining and relevant to the classroom.
All courses have been accredited by the Georgia Department of
Education and most metro Boards of Education. We are also available
to present custom workshops or provide consultations at your
school.
PLUs
are granted upon prior approval by the professional development
office of the employing system or through
the State Department of Education. |
