ClimeTime Teacher Training

At the heart of NSEA’s mission is the unwavering belief that education is the impetus to changing behavior. We assist our partners in providing essential professional development opportunities and help create science-based, classroom-ready curriculum materials that seamlessly integrate into existing lesson plans, all while aligning with state standards. NSEA’s aim is to empower educators with the tools they need to engage their students in meaningful conversations about climate change, ultimately cultivating a generation of informed and environmentally conscious citizens.

Teaching Outside

Calling all Whatcom County elementary teachers and staff serving grades K-5 looking to integrate the outdoors into everyday lessons. Our Teaching Outside workshops are designed to provide teachers and other education staff with the basic skills and tools to implement outdoor experiential and climate-related activities on school sites, in local parks, and in urban settings. Each workshop is stand-alone.

Objectives:

Teachers will be able to evaluate the potential risks of teaching outdoors and plan appropriate measures to mitigate risks.
Teachers will be able to summarize at least one teaching outside activity and one teaching outside strategy that may be used while teaching students.
Teachers will be able to apply course learning by implementing and reflecting on a lesson delivered outside to their classroom students.
