Education Programs
Canoe University
Summer Institute: Our marquee professional development program for teachers is a 5-day summer institute during the third week of August, offering 2 1/2 days of workshops at the Museum, followed by a 2 1/2 day canoe trip. Along with trip planning and packing, paddle carving, and paddling skills, participants will explore opportunities for incorporating canoes into classroom curriculum. ORCA certification is available upon request. Please contact the Museum's Education Coordinator for additional details.
Custom Teacher's Workshops: This year we are pleased to offer professional development workshops for teachers at the Museum and, by special appointment, at schools in the Peterborough area. Teachers interested in setting up a workshop that is custom tailored to their needs and interests should contact the Museum's Education Coordinator.
