Meyer’s Point Environmental Field Station, Olympia, WA
Attention formal K-8 educators from schools and districts in the ESD 113 region!
Join Pacific Education Institute (PEI) and our ClimeTime partners to take a deep dive into the ecology of wildfires and climate change, focusing on the South Sound region. Participants will learn about the Solutions Oriented Learning Storyline format, designed around six guiding principles: Indigenous perspectives, local anchoring phenomena, culturally responsive instructional practices, NGSS three-dimensional student growth measures, and a solutions-oriented approach to managing forests as a climate change mitigation strategy. Participants will also explore carbon drawdown relating to forest management to support opportunities for elevating student voice in the classroom.
This in-person opportunity will be held at the Meyer’s Point Environmental Field Station in Olympia.*
Participants who attend the whole session will receive:
- 6 Washington state approved STEM clock hours
- The opportunity to earn a $200 implementation stipend
