PROJECT WET & CLIMATE, WATER AND RESILIENCE TEACHER WORKSHOP
PROJECT WET & CLIMATE, WATER AND RESILIENCE TEACHER WORKSHOP
Tuesday, May 6; 9am to 3pm
For educators of grades K-8. The Project WET curriculum guide is a collection of science-based, interdisciplinary activities and lesson plans that are teacher-tested and classroom ready. They are sure to help educators feel confident addressing themes of water in the classroom and empower students to build a more resilient future. The Climate, Water and Resilience guide helps educators teach middle and high school students about climate and climate change using interactive, objective, science-based activities that students will enjoy. Understanding climate, and specifically the way that climate is changing, is crucial to making informed decisions and building community and environmental resilience. Both guides are aligned with NGSS standards. Bring a lunch and dress for the weather. Certificates are given for the workshop hours completed.
Led by Environmental Center Senior Naturalist, David Alexander and NJ Dept. of Environmental Protection Project Wet Coordinator Toni Heater.
Fee: $40 (includes curriculum activity guides) (scholarships available for Essex County urban aid district teachers; call the Center for details)
