About the Project

This grant supports an innovative, interdisciplinary climate literacy program integrating science, English Language Arts, mathematics, history, art, and physical education. The program empowers students to understand and address climate change while fostering cross-disciplinary connections and hands-on learning experiences. In English Language Arts, students will engage in a book study focused on environmental themes to develop critical reading and writing skills. Science lessons include building solar suitcases to explore renewable energy concepts, while math classes will analyze climate-related data to model environmental trends. History instruction will examine the evolution of environmental policies and social movements, and art classes will promote visual storytelling. Physical education will focus on outdoor activities and sustainability practices. An after-school Climate Action Club will offer additional opportunities for leadership and community engagement. This holistic approach fosters environmental stewardship, interdisciplinary learning, and student empowerment.
