LEARNING IS IN OUR NATURE
ABOUT PLT CANADA
PLT Canada is committed to advancing environmental education, forest literacy, and career pathways, using trees and forests as windows on the world. Our award-winning resources offer a lifetime of learning from early childhood through adulthood. Our wide and diverse network provides professional development for educators and opportunities for young people to explore nature and the diversity of green careers in the forest and conservation sector. Together, we are growing future forest and conservation leaders.
INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS
PLT Canada’s high-quality activities and lesson plans supplement existing school curriculum and enhance educational programming in nonformal settings. Our environmental education resources are ideal for educators and parents who want to encourage outdoor learning and take their nature curriculum outside or bring the outdoors in. Activities can be integrated into lesson plans for all grade levels and subject areas (especially STEM, reading, writing, and social studies). Topics range from forests, wildlife, and water to community planning, waste management, and energy.
ONLINE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT COURSES
PLT Canada’s professional development helps educators learn how to integrate environmental education into their teaching and become comfortable teaching outdoors—in urban, suburban, and rural environments. Our online courses teach educators how best to use PLT Canada’s instructional materials with their own students in their own setting and how to engage with (and draw upon) their community in learning about and taking action to address local environmental issues.
