Where to Start: K–2 Climate Change Education
Do you want to address climate change with your elementary students, but don't know where to begin? Are you concerned that climate change may overwhelm or scare your students? Then this workshop is a good place to start! We will discuss key practices for early elementary climate change education and introduce Climate Generation's new resources for grades K–2, Healthy Habitats and Food Solutions. You will leave with more confidence to teach about climate change with your elementary students, and knowledge of two standards-supported resources to get you started! This workshop will apply best to formal or nonformal educators working with K–2 students, but preschool and 3rd grade educators may also find it applicable. We encourage you to download the Healthy Habitats and Food Solutions resources before the session to familiarize yourself with the content! The virtual workshop will run on October 16, 12:00 PM–1:00 PM CT.
