Take Action SC Environmental Educators Virtual Workshop

It’s time to take action! Registration is now open for the Take Action SC Environmental Educators Virtual Workshop scheduled for Tuesday, July 27, from 9 a.m. to noon. Hosted by the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control and the Take Action SC Environmental Education Partnership, the annual environmental educators’ summer workshop will include activities and sessions to help attendees find ways to integrate environmental lessons into everyday teaching.

This year’s workshop will feature special guest speaker and artist Kirkland Smith. University of South Carolina’s Sustainability Director, Larry Cook, will teach on sustainable literacy. Other highlights include curriculum lessons and demonstrations; virtual field trips; Student Ambassadors for Sustainability Program presentations; and partner updates from the S.C. Energy Office, PalmettoPride, Recycle Right SC, and Don't Waste Food SC. The first 100 attendees to register will be entered into a drawing for a $50 Visa gift card donated by Greenleaf Education.

The goal of the Take Action Partnership is to provide a program that informs, inspires and empowers students and teachers to protect and preserve the environment.
