activities Noreen taught us in the classroom. I have already done a few of

"Everything was great. It has been a long time since I have been in a
workshop that kept my attention for such a long period of time. Presenter
was wonderful and made a subject that can be hard to understand very easy
to understand. Gave lots of suggestions and it was very obvious that she
not only put a lot of thought into it but cared about what she was
presenting. Could have listened to her for another day!"
"I am not much of a science aficionado, but I thoroughly enjoyed this
workshop. It gave me great ideas, with a hands on approach, of ways to
adapt science concepts for my students. As someone who is visually
impaired, I wish thse ideas had been part of my science education in
school!"
"I love the fact that we got to take home a bunch of materials we'll be
able to use with our students from the workshop."
"Best workshop I have been to in a very long time. Speaker was tremendous!" "Your creativity, resourcefulness and brilliance blow my
mind. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with the McCarthy
Observatory."
