This two day workshop uses a variety of hands-on resources to explore Earth Systems and the connections between hydrosphere, geosphere, atmosphere and biosphere.
Teachers and out of School program staff who work with upper elementary/middle school students will benefit as we explore how to connect kids to the outdoors and the outdoors to kids. We will have a special emphasis on citizen science activities and there will be planning time to strategize how to integrate this into your practice.
