Workshop Highlights:
Explore Energy in Nature: Learn how wind, water, sun, and soil can be used to teach energy concepts in your schoolyard.
Hands-On Activities: Discover simple tools and techniques for engaging students in energy phenomena through direct interaction with nature.
Lesson Ideas: Get inspired with curriculum-aligned activities that make science come alive outdoors.
Green Schoolyard Planning: Understand the steps to create a successful green schoolyard and begin drafting preliminary plans tailored to your school.
Take-home Resources: A fully equipped toolbox for outdoor energy exploration!
A casual dinner buffet will be served.
About our Guest Speakers: The City of Dayton Office of Sustainability works to saves residents money, reduce emissions, and support safe and healthy spaces to live, work, and play. Sustainability Manager, Meg Maloney, and Sustainability Specialist, Tim Pritchard, share a passion for helping youth connect with nature, learn science, and become good stewards of the community and environment. In collaboration with Five Rivers MetroParks staff, they will demonstrate ways to foster an understanding of energy through natural systems that can be applied to a schoolyard environment, support STEM learning, and inspire students to practice sustainability.
