    PLT Trained Educators Can Order 2006 Guide
    Educators who have attended a Project Learning Tree (PLT) workshop in the past can now order PLT's new PreK-8 Environmental Education Activity Guide directly from PLT for $29.95, plus $7.95 shipping and handling. The guide's newest features--reading connections, technology connections, differentiated instruction, and assessment strategies--help educators bring the environment into the classroom and still meet today's standards. The 480-page guide contains 96 multi-disciplinary activities, each carefully designed for specific grade levels and learning objectives, and correlated to national and state standards. All activities have been updated and revised; new activities address current issues such as invasive species and climate change.

    GreenWorks! environmental action projects link classroom learning and the real world. By combining the environmental knowledge and resources of PLT with community action initiatives, GreenWorks! action projects make a difference in how young people think, in their sense of responsibility toward their communities, and in their understanding of their relationship to the environment. Apply today for a GreenWorks Grant to help fund your project.
