Join the National Park Service for a fun and informative workshop using nature, wildlife, and the forest as an exciting vehicle and catalyst for interdisciplinary curriculum enhancement.  Project WET and Project Learning Tree are teacher-tested, nationally recognized teacher training programs for environmental education that include ready-to-use curriculum activity guides. Workshop attendees will learn through participation in hands-on Project WET and Project Learning Tree activities and peer teaching at our Chattahoochee River Environmental Education Center lodge on Friday.  Your attendance and completion of the workshop will result in Project Wild and Project Learning Tree educator certification.
