This experiential professional learning opportunity uses the natural setting as a living laboratory to strengthen environmental literacy and engage middle school learners through hands-on, inquiry-based instruction.Participants will explore and implement activities from the Environmental Education Activity Guide for NJ Teachers, with a focus on ecological systems, human–environment interactions, and critical thinking. Educators will practice field investigations, data collection, and collaborative problem-solving while learning strategies to connect environmental concepts to science, social studies, math, and language arts curricula aligned with New Jersey Student Learning and Climtae Change Standards.The optional overnight format supports deeper exploration of environmental topics through evening programs, reflective discussions, and team-based learning experiences. Educators will leave with practical classroom-ready activities, increased confidence teaching outdoors, and tools to help students analyze environmental issues, develop solutions, and become informed environmental stewards.Tentative Schedule (Rain or shine)FRIDAY (Optional early arrival to alleviate the stress of morning travel)4:00 – 5:00pm – Arrive and settle in to cabins6:00 – 7:00pm – Dinner – please bring your own7:00 – 7:45pm – Paddle on Lake Wapalanne8:00pm – Campfire + StorytellingSATURDAY7:00 – 8:00am – Morning walk (optional)8:00 – 8:45am – Breakfast for Overnighters (provided by NJSOC)8:30 – 9:00am – Arrival for single day participants9:00 – 9:15am – Icebreaker9:15 – 9:45am – Welcome and Introductions9:45 – 10:00am – Exploring PLT Resources10:00am-10:15am- Break10:15-11:30- Activity 1- Field, Forest &amp; Stream11:45 – 12:45pm – Lunch (provided by NJSOC)1:00 – 2:15pm – Activity 2- Nature's Skyscrapers2:30 – 3:45pm – Activity 3- Invasive Species3:45 – 4:00pm –Workshop Summation &amp; Gratitudes4:00pm – DepartureWorkshop Details:Workshops are presented through a collaboration of the NJSOC and the NJ Forest Service.Registration fee for overnighters includes breakfast and lunch, overnight accommodations in cabin-style housing and all workshop materials, including the PLT Explore Your Environment K-8 Activity Guide (valued at $45) .
