YOUTH EDUCTION

KTMB's Warriors Youth Education program
is debuting new lessons for the
2024-2025 school year

Our NEW Earth Allies program includes hands-on, place-based activities that will combine concepts from our Waste, Watershed, and Weed Warriors curriculum into grade-specific modules. The lessons will incorporate Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and Nevada State Academic Standards. K-2nd grade lessons will focus on waste and familiarizing students with the environmental “R’s”. 3rd-5th grade will focus on waste, pollution, and environmental issues in the Truckee Meadows. These lessons are designed to connect students with the Truckee Meadows and their school community while inspiring continual participation in community service, STEM, and environmental stewardship. All grades will have a service learning component incorporated into their module.  An Earth Allies Curriculum Guide will be emailed to educators this summer.  Earth Allies lessons for grades K-5 will be available for scheduling in July. 

Our original Warriors lessons are still available for K-12 summer programming. If you’re interested in booking a Warriors lesson or Warriors service learning opportunity this summer, please email KTMB’s Youth Education Program Manager directly at scout@ktmb.org.
