Hi. My name is Twanneshia Thomas. I am the Green Team Instructor for Augusta Fells Savage highschool in Baltimore, MD. I decided to join the Academy to learn more about climate change. I'm hoping to gain more knowledge on this topic to be able to teach to my students.
Welcome Twanneshia and we're excited to have you in the Academy! Looking forward to chatting more in the discussion forums and seeing you in person this summer.
Hello Twanneshia and welcome to the Academy! We have several participants from Baltimore City schools, so you may already know some of the classmates. We believe that focusing on investigations and place-based learning emphasizing watersheds can work well in urban environments. Baltimore also has some terrific sustainability programs in place; you may be familiar with them: Baltimore office of sustainability https://www.baltimoresustainability.org/
