In this workshop for K-12 teachers, the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden will provide an introduction for teachers to botanical and ecological concepts including plant classification, morphology and plant-pollinator interactions. Using appropriate grade level pedagogy and a combination of teaching methods including lecture, plant dissections, lab activities, independent and cooperative inquiry, and guided outdoor instruction, teachers will learn interdisciplinary teaching methods to easily adapt to the classroom.

Open to K-12 teachers. 

Presented by the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden and co-sponsored by the Kimberly Green Latin American and Caribbean Center (LACC). Made possible with support from LACC's US Department of Education Title VI Grant.

Statement of Free Expression

FIU endorses the Florida Board of Governors' Statement of Free Expression to support and encourage full and open discourse and the robust exchange of ideas and perspectives on our campuses. In addition to supporting this legal right, we view this as an integral part of our ability to deliver a high-quality academic experience for our students, engage in meaningful and productive research, and provide valuable public service. This includes fostering civil and open dialogue in support of critical thinking in and out of the classroom, including events hosted by the university.
