Did you hear that PBS NC has partnered with NC Water Resources Research Institute, NC Sea Grant and NC Department of Environmental Quality to create a 5E Unit to for middle school teachers to teach about the *REAL* Water Cycle? Did you know that 97% of water cycle depictions leave out human interaction completely? Our lesson tells the truth about water, including our complex interactions and solutions for keeping it renewable. And we want to share it with your district! Take a look at our new
.
We want to help your teachers incorporate the latest data and information into their instruction. This Renewable Water Unit is obviously a science-based unit, but our activities are also aligned with E.L.A (Writing, Speaking, and Listening) and Social Studies (Geography and Environmental Literacy)!
We are offering up to 8 district-wide hands-on presentations (both virtual and in-person) to train your teachers. Do you host a district-wide subject meeting periodically? Would you like for us to offer place-based resources and materials for teachers to take back to their classroom right away? Our district-wide trainings are:
-Place-Based
-Fun and Engaging (laughter guaranteed!)
-Informative
-Content-rich
-Subject-centric (We'll customize each training to be for E.L.A/Science/Social Studies, based on audience)
Want us to support your district? Submit the interest form below and we'll be in touch soon!
