I'm a great believer in giving teachers innovative tools. Like those found so abundantly in the outdoor classroom. Can't beat a coral reef, an active volcano, an excavated village site, or a living glacier for providing teaching moments about the world and how it works. That's the idea behind Earth Explore. But for those who can't get out of the classroom just yet...how do you bring an awareness and excitement indoors?
Give teachers cool and usable tools for one thing. Again this fall, Earth Explore is supplying thousands of "Cool to Care" posters for classrooms all across the country. They carry a planet friendly message, and ideas for taking it forward into the community.
It all began last fall, and has taken off. To make it easy for teachers, our poster and companion classroom handout are now available online as pdf printouts. Just go to earthexplore.com/poster.html to get yours.
Teachers have told us that our "ten easy steps to protect the planet" have blossomed into classroom discussions with environmental education themes, and have served as a jumping off point for EE curriculum development.
All of which makes us happy, and will encourage us to develop more tools for our nation's great teachers in the coming months.
