Environmental STEM education resources, lessons, and techniques for your K-8 classroom!

K-8 Teacher Training

Join the Cumberland River Compact for a 3-hour professional development session on place-based environment STE(A)M education! You will learn how to use the biodiverse ecosystems of Tennessee’s backyard as an inspiration for your classroom content.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The Principles of e-STEM & place-based education and how it applies to your classroom.
  • Local content and examples to support your science content in the K-8 classroom (i.e. Tennessee’s ecosystems, animal adaptations, natural hazards, food webs, etc).
  • How to implement the Cumberland River Compact’s e-STEM for Tennessee’s Teachers curriculum in your classroom.
  • Techniques to easily engage your students in science and engineering practices outside (and inside!) the classroom.

What You’ll Come Away With:

  • Standards-aligned lessons for your K-8 classroom.
  • Techniques for teaching outside.
  • An increased confidence in teaching place-based environmental STEM education.
  • Connection to a state-wide network of educators.
