How to be Cool about Getting Hot
The Amazon Rainforest
In this curriculum, children gain a sense of protection for their community as they get involved with projects such as recycling, water
conservation, tree planting, and creating gardens to ‘green’ their immediate neighborhood.
Teams of children investigate questions such as:
How do plants and trees grow in your neighborhood?
What animals can we discover?
What are the many habitats all around you?
This curriculum shows how ecosystems are tied together, even on your street.
Gardens and Growing
Does food come ‘from the grocery store?’ Growing plants from seed lets students discover how plants grow and develop. This leads to a real understanding of where food comes from and how it gets to your street. Then, we grow it!
All the while kids learn about the amazing cycles of nutrients, water, air, and carbon that support a healthy garden. Both children and teens learn how to grow and care for gardens.
Ocean Explorers
The ocean contain some of the most fascinating and unique animals in the world; yet, despite its vast size, it is the least explored ecosystem on the planet.
In Ocean Explorers, students learn about the vastness of the ocean and the variety of its beings.
They also come to understand the importance of water and the role the ocean plays in all the systems of our planet.
