SUMMARY:Climate & Environmental Science Bootcamp
DESCRIPTION:Prepare for NYS’s new Climate Education K-12 Instructional Requirements with our 5-day Interdisciplinary Bootcamp! All teachers are welcome!\n\n\nKEY INFORMATION\n\nLOCATION: St. Francis College\, 179 Livingston St.\, Brooklyn\nDATE & TIME: Monday\, July 27 – Friday\, July 31\, 2026\, 9am – 3pm daily\nLED BY: Glen E. Stuart and Jessica Genter (bios below)\nCTLE AVAILABLE: 30\nTHIS WORKSHOP IS FOR: K-12 teachers in any subject excited to prepare for the new NYS Climate Education requirements!\n\n  \nWORKSHOP DESCRIPTION\n🚨THIS JUST IN: In collaboration with students\, educators\, NGO partners\, lawmakers\, and many of you\, the New York State Board of Regents approved a historic new statewide K-12 instructional requirement for climate education! This will ensure that students are given the opportunity to learn about the causes\, impacts\, and solutions to the climate crisis. The requirement will go into effect in the 2027-2028 school year beginning with grades 5-12 and grades K-4 in the 2028-29 school year (read more about it here) and STEMteachersNYC is here to support YOU with our Interdisciplinary Climate & Environmental Science Bootcamp. \nThis 5-day interdisciplinary workshop will explore active learning strategies for deepening understanding of crucial climate and climate related concepts that will empower students of any age\, in any subject area. Throughout the week\, you will engage in thought-provoking\, classroom-tested\, hands-on activities and discussions. You will spend time observing instruction from the point of view of a student (“student-mode”)\, and unpacking those experiences in “teacher-mode” to better understand how to empower your students. \nWalk away with cutting-edge\, standards-aligned content spanning science and the humanities\, helping to answer\, ‘What should we teach students?” as well as a new toolkit of teacher moves to help answer\, “How should we teach students?” By the end of the week\, you will be prepared to support students and colleagues alike as we transition into a climate education future. Join a growing community of front-line educators who understand the importance of truth\, action\, and resilience. \nARE YOU BRINGING 2+ TEACHERS FROM THE SAME SCHOOL/ORGANIZATION? Even better – someone who’s not a typical science teacher? We have a discount code for you! Email Program Director\, Brian Levine\, at brian@stemteachersnyc.org to set you up. \nA full downloadable agenda is available here. \n  \nWORKSHOP LEADER(S)\nGlen Stuart has been a participant and facilitator of this and other workshops at STEMteachersNYC for 10 years. He earned an M.A from Rider University and a B.S. From Rutgers. Currently\, he is entering his 14th year of teaching Environmental Science and Biology at Montgomery High School in New Jersey. \nJessica Genter is currently working at Friends Seminary\, helping students learn Introductory Biology\, Advanced Biology\, and Environmental Science. She was first introduced to teaching Environmental Science through Glen and fell in love with the curriculum’s ability to get students to care about their world through science\, art\, history\, and philosophy. Jessica is also an adjunct lecturer at City College\, where she helps teachers learn best practices for their classroom. \n  \nABOUT STEMteachersNYC\nSTEMteachersNYC is celebrating 15 years!
