I am Adilah Wutoh-Baylor. I teach Literacy/ELA in Prince George's County Public Schools. I have been the Green School Coordinator for 12 years at my school and led us through 2 Maryland Green School Certifications. I am late joining the discussion because my green team, E-SWAT is constructing a 6x9 ft mural of a scene from The Lorax on a school building side that backdrops our butterfly garden and the rain, as wonderful as it is, has caused us setbacks. I have been a little overwhelmed with this task added to my normal duties as a teacher, mom, and grand-mom.
Next year, I will teach middle school science. As echoed in other posts, I hope to gain from this academy knowledge of engaging and effective ways to teach climate change and assess student learning and to develop a better understanding of climate change for myself as a teacher/global citizen.
Please include me in any plans for bike trails.
