Educator Workshops

Environmental education brings an appreciation and understanding of the outdoors through hands-on, inquiry based learning experiences! Providing tools to educators to enhance environmental education topics helps to expand that knowledge to a greater number of students. These tools allow educators to increase student literacy with scientific methods, team building skills, and critical thinking.

Summit SWCD partners with local conservation organizations to offer teacher workshops designed for educators of all grade levels. Workshops can be tailored to your class or group’s specific needs. Program costs vary depending on workshop content and materials required. 

Workshop curricula can include:
  • Project WILD
  • Growing Up WILD
  • Aquatic WILD
  • Project WET
  • Project Learning Tree
  • Wonders of Wetlands (WOW)
