KAEE 2024 Conference

Don’t Waste It! is an educator guide to waste management, recycling, composting, and waste reduction, which includes 11 lessons covering five themes: municipal solid waste, recycling, plastics, composting, and landfills. The Don’t Waste It! project will help current and future educators understand the systems for solid waste management, recycling, and composting in their state. We're excited to provide educators across Kentucky with resources and lessons to share this knowledge with students and inspire their local communities to get involved with composting, recycling, and other waste reduction activities. Participants will receive a physical copy of the educator guide.

This newly envisioned guide, Foundations in Water Education, from Project WET contains 12 of their most popular activities that provide a foundation to build water literacy in students. The activities and experiences address all of the Principles of Water Literacy and include topics such as properties of water, watersheds, water systems, groundwater, ecology, water use, and management of water resources.

Project WET's Climate, Water and Resilience guide will help educators teach middle and high school aged students about climate and climate change using interactive, objective, science-based experiences that students will enjoy and learn through.

Participants who attend this morning workshop will receive a copy of Foundations in Water Education and Cliamte, Water and Resilience.
