Project WET for Teachers and Families
Mark your calendars for June 30th for our Project WET workshop! Discover new ways to excite your students with project-based learning which links all subjects to nature and to our watershed through hiking, new Project WET activities, and water testing from kayaks. Join us after the workshop at Camp Galilee for a barbeque, camp fire, and more kayaking!
Our family-friendly water workshop for educators wouldn't be possible without the support of Nevada Project WET, the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection, Otis Bay, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Tahoe Water Supplier Association, and the U.S. Forest Service. A huge THANK YOU to all of our sponsors who help make this fantastic workshop possible. For more information on this workshop, visit our professional development page.
Chip in For Schools
