Teachers!
Teacher sign up to lead the Earth Week Challenge for your classroom Every year in April, thousands of students across Florida honor Earth Day by taking the Earth Week Challenge with their class (as led by their teachers). This program is designed to be fun and easy for students and teachers to follow. Teachers can access our Teacher’s Toolkit that includes a fun video and lesson plans for each day of the week. If you are a teacher please explore our Teacher's Toolkit. |
Why did we create the Earth Week Challenge?
We created the Earth Week Challenge to help people practice sustainability through a program that is fun, holistic & easy to follow. Many people ask, “What is the most important action that an individual can take to stop climate change?” The answer to this question is - there is no silver bullet, but there are several important ways you can (1) reduce your own environmental footprint and (2) advocate for systemic change. This is not a one-time challenge, because that is not enough. Our goal is to help you build new habits that last, because everyday is Earth Day!
