Rahus-Solar Schoolhouse

How to integrate Climate Change into your K12 Classroom.
Has your school passed a Climate Change Resolution and you’re wondering how to introduce the subject your students?
Join us and hear from Sheila Morrissey, 6th Grade teacher at Kenwood Elementary School (Kenwood, CA) about her strategy for integrating Climate Change into her class throughout the past schoolyear. She will share about developing empathy for nature and others, then exploring the science of climate change, and finally empowering students to review solutions and develop proposals for several measures for their own school to implement. 
We’ll show how you can craft a successful plan for your own class by including empathy, explore and empower….all while meeting your NGSS, Common Core, and Social Studies standards. 
Food will be provided. If inspired, bring a plant-based food item to share potluck-style.
