Session 1: English 1/ICS
In order to strengthen the potential to meaningfully infuse the environmental curriculum, teachers in the 9th grade who have common preps can be given a window into some options. With options, then they can decide to take it where they choose. There are many avenues to explore.

Goals for Workshop #1
• Show English faculty potential options for environmental curricular options within the regular English 1 units of study
• To familiarize Science faculty with these but to enable them to see where THEIR curriculum can also be meaningfully infused, facilitating the English/Science 9th grade partnerships
• All units presented have a PBL/portfolio element
