Environmental workshop set

An environmental education workshop with Project WILD/WILD Aquatic and Project WET will be hosted by Antioch University New England (AUNE) on Saturday, Nov. 10.

Students, teachers and the public can learn skills and methods for teaching about water and wildlife. They will participate in hands-on activities from three well-known environmental education guides: the Project WILD K-12 Curriculum and Activity Guide, the Project WILD Aquatic Curriculum and Activity Guide, and the Project WET Curriculum and Activity Guide 2.0, released in September 2011.

Anyone interested in environmental education is invited, but especially K-12 teachers and nonformal environmental educators working in places such as nature centers, aquaria and nonprofit educational organizations.

The workshop is sponsored by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services; Project WILD, a wildlife education curriculum through the New Hampshire Department of Fish and Game; and Project WET, a nonprofit organization that provides water education for teachers.

The workshop will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., rain or shine. The cost of the workshop is $75 for students and $125 for professionals. Bring a lunch and come prepared for indoor and outdoor settings.
