Spend the afternoon learning outside! Join the SFOEC for a fun professional development opportunity! Connect with local conservation organizations to explore how to connect science with our local environment and outdoor learning. This year we are focusing on some easy and effective apps that connect students with science, technology, and community science monitoring. These are easy, real-world science tools just in time for Earth Day, the City Nature Challenge, or just getting your students learning outside this spring.
We’ll spend time outside exploring these apps, so bring a portable device (phone, tablet) that you might want to try. Plus, we’ll have some snacks and freebies to take home as well.

Registration Details:

• Registration limited to 25 teachers.
• Participants must be a classroom teacher in in Pueblo/Tribal communities or public schools in Los Alamos, Mora, Rio Arriba, San Miguel, Sandoval, Santa Fe, and Taos counties.
• $50 stipends available to teachers at Title 1 schools

About SFOEC:

The Santa Fe Outdoor Education Collaboration is a joint project between Audubon Southwest, the Santa Fe Botanical Garden, and the Santa Fe Watershed Association. These three organizations collaboratively provide third, fourth, and fifth graders, and their teachers, with high-quality, nature-based science lessons based on the natural environment here in Northern New Mexico. We do this work in partnership with teachers and district staff to provide professional development trainings, classroom visits, and outdoor field trips all rooted in standards-aligned life-science and best-practice of outdoor education.

Thanks to the LANL Foundation for providing support and funding for this program and teacher stipends.
