Solar One is certified by the New York State Education Department (NYSED) to provide Continuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE) credit. Our hands-on professional learning prepares teachers to bring climate action to life in their classrooms while aligning with a range of  subjects, across grade levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a Professional Development workshop, our Solar One staff educators provide training and guidance for teachers on how to incorporate our STEM-based, hands-on activities in Energy, Water, Materials, Air and Food into their classroom lessons. We also provide training on ways to work with students and the rest of the school community to conserve energy and reduce their carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every workshop includes lesson planning time for integrating content into coursework, standards alignment, and discussions on best practices for using the Solar One Green Design Lab as a tool for highly effective teaching. Teachers receive detailed instructional guides for the activities covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solar One classroom residencies utilize place-based STEAM activities to  bring climate solutions to life in the classroom. School partners may choose anywhere from one session – twenty session residencies. We work in grades 3-12 and align subject matter to learning standards and Amplify. During a residency, Solar One may work with up to four classes per day. We bring all program supplies and can provide supplemental training for teachers on how to replicate the activities with future classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
