About this event

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDUCATORS! 

The California Department of Water Resources, Pala Band of Mission Indians and California Project WET program invite educators who work with students in 3rd through 12th Grades to a workshop learning about climate change and the connection to California's water resources.

This workshop will be an interdisciplinary exploration of climate science, how people are applying the science to conserve California’s water resources and develop climate resilient communities – and how the interdisciplinary activities of Project WET can help you engage your students in the study of climate and change in your classroom or education program.

Project WET activities are designed to engage students in the study of water through the use of models, interactive simulations, and reality-based scenarios. Interdisciplinary Project WET activities supplement existing curriculum, are correlated to Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards, and provide strong foundations for STEAM, Project-Based, and Service- Learning programs.

For a $25 registration fee, participants will receive a wealth of current information on climate science and its application, an opportunity to interact with DWR Climate and Pala Band Environmental research staff, a copy of Project WET Guide 2.0, morning coffee and tea, lunch, an opportunity to receive 0.8 CEU credit - and a $100 stipend following completion of the workshop!

Organized by

The mission of the Water Education Foundation, an impartial, nonprofit organization, is to inspire understanding of water and catalyze critical conversations to build bridges and inform collaborative decision-making.

Our history dates back to 1977 when California was in the second year of a major drought and water was at the forefront of the news. The Foundation’s articles of incorporation were filed on Feb. 27 of that year, creating a nonprofit, nonpolitical, tax-exempt educational organization. Today, the Sacramento-based Foundation remains a vital source of nonpartisan, in-depth information about water resource issues in California and the West. Taking a steady pulse of the water world, the Foundation provides a vast repertoire of educational materials, products and services such as our water tours, lectures, conferences, workshops, our flagship Western Water news articles and Project WET (Water Education Today).
