THE FIRST FIVE DAYS

Imagine starting school every year with a question:

If you could snap your fingers and change one thing in the world today, what would it be?

Protect the rain forest? Empower the hungry to support and feed themselves? Bring peace to the planet? Embrace diversity of race, religion and sexual orientation?

The list is endless.

Now imagine the ultimate possibilities that would flow from your one change:

Peace, unity, dignity, environmental resilience, freedom, joy…play with your vision!

Okay. What if you could connect with others who share your dreams and turn your possibilities into reality? What if your ideas were to guide your next year as you create measurable results for sustainable change?

Welcome to the First 5 Days: A time for coming alive and building the tools to bring out your best every year.

The First Five Days takes the best practices of brilliant educators and rolls them into a powerful start to every school year, for every level--Grade 1 to post-secondary.

We all know that formal educational practices need fresh ideas--this is the one we have been waiting for!

Bring on the Learning Revolution!

DAY ONE:

An incredible Gen-Up symposium starts the event. We open to the possibility of an environmentally resilient, socially just, peaceful and fulfilling human presence on Earth. We explore what change we most want to be, and find others who feel as we do. Then the fun grows exponentially...

DAYS 2-5:

Alphabetter & VM!

The Alphabetter-VM Challenge is the new paradigm for learning. Everything about learning this way feels different--including how curriculum is developed: by you! The outcome is certainty in your ability to make a difference that matters.
