Spring PD- Classroom Greening Ideas (Air Quality)
We held a professional development workshop for our staff. Teachers learned ways to improve Air Quality in their classrooms and homes. We also provided the staff with some resources that they could use in their classroom. In addition, we had make and take activities where the staff made their own green all-purpose cleaner for their classrooms, and planted a plant for their classrooms.
