“I have watched my students become passionate about adaptation strategies in the face of climate change and care about the world beyond their own communities. It is a really great project to be part of.” – Acacia McCombs, Teacher, NMSA
Teachers, students, and classrooms are invited to join the FREE Climate Innovation Challenge!
Registration includes access to our NGSS and ELA Common Core-aligned storytelling curriculum and our extensive virtual resources and classroom support. After completing a scientific process to design climate change solutions, students use their creative minds to communicate their ideas in engaging 2-4 minute videos to share with peers, decision-makers, and community leaders. CIC was designed to meet standards for middle school students and the curriculum’s built-in flexibility allows it to serve older and younger students as well. CAVU provides free, hands-on support for teachers and students alike. Email us at cic@cavu.org.
