River of Words (ROW) - An international art and poetry program focusing on
watersheds; trains teachers, park staff, youth leaders and other educators
ways to incorporate nature and the arts into their own work with children.
Nature has been the greatest source of inspiration for artists and poets
since humans began drawing animals on the walls of caves.  The natural world
as seen through the eyes of its children is heartening, humbling, fresh,
often life-affirming, and sometimes disturbing.  Using ROW program
materials, learn techniques and tools to interest K-12 children in
expressing their view of nature through words and images.  This program can
culminate in having your students compete in a national poetry contest.  To
learn more about the national competition visit ROW website –
www.riverofwords.org.  PICE has been designated Pennsylvania’s ROW
coordinator.  Tuition:  $100; includes K-12 curriculum guide, ROW resources,
instruction, and ACT 48 credit hours.
