Ready to teach climate change? This program is designed to support non-science teachers in grades 6-12 in incorporating the new climate change standards into your already-tight curricula. We will model an interdisciplinary and participatory approach that reflects the pedagogies of inclusion and equity in formal and informal learning environments. This workshop will help you understand the basic science of how climate change occurs and the way it affects society differently. The causes and effects of climate change will be explored through art, literature, and other media, as well as an easy nature hike. Workshop activities will take place both indoors and outdoors (rain or shine) on the beautiful campus of the New Jersey School of Conservation. Whether you teach in a classroom or in an informal setting, you will gain skills and strategies to enable you to address this important issue. Follow up support will be provided!
