“Green City Teachers” Program gearing up: sign up now to become an eco-educator
We’re thrilled to announce that the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society is the newest Community Partner in our ever-expanding EcoExpress program, and that we’ll be incorporating EcoExpress into PHS’ Green City Teachers training program, starting this fall.
Green City Teachers dovetails perfectly with EcoExpress, because it is designed to provide Philadelphia educators with the skills necessary to integrate horticultural and environmental education into curricula, after-school programs and service-learning projects, and to help students appreciate the role of nature in their lives.
Become a “Green” Teacher
Philadelphia educators are invited to join PHS Green City Teachers Basic Training, which takes place in five sessions this fall. Teachers will :
- Integrate horticulture and environmental education into the classroom
- Join a network of teachers
- Participate in a forum for sharing ideas
- Gain up to 16 hours of Act 48 credit
Thursdays, October 21 & 28, November 4 & 11. 5:30 – 8:30 pm
Saturday, October 23. 10 am – 1 pm
For more information on Green City Teachers, contact Sally McCabe at 215-988-8846, or by email.
