Publisher Description
PLT's Green Schools program empowers youth to improve the environment and their health at school, at home, and in their community. It lets students apply their skills to the real world and gives them a voice and the knowledge that they can make a difference.
Student-led Green Teams apply STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) to create greener and healthier schools—and save schools money!
This book includes an adult leader's guide and a set of five hands-on, student-driven investigations.
Using critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, students will analyze their school's Energy, Water, Waste and Recycling, School Site, and Environmental Quality.
Each investigation details specific things for students to measure and observe, along with student worksheets to fill out and guidance on how to combine data collected into a school-wide analysis.
Using the results of their investigations, students select, design, and implement one or more action projects, and measure their impacts.
