Project Portraits
These Portraits of Practice represent the diversity of work done by ClimeTime and the many ways in which climate science and the focus on local phenomena-based learning can engage both teachers and students.
Teaching the critical link between food waste and climate change
Since 2018, the Pacific Education Institute (PEI) has facilitated six Solutions Oriented Learning Storylines (SOLS): Food Waste workshops statewide, serving 120 K-12 teachers from 31 school districts and providing 1,188 clock hours of professional learning.
STEM Storylines
The STEM Storylines are core K-5 instructional units developed over the past four years that support learning focused on bundles of NGSS and the Science and Engineering Practices. Each Storyline deeply integrates STEM learning with other subject areas such as ELA and math.
