Brief Description:
Project Learning Tree® (PLT) is an award winning, multi-disciplinary environmental education program for educators and students in PreK-grade 12. PLT uses the forest as a "window" on the world to increase students' understanding of our environment; stimulate students' critical and creative thinking; develop students' ability to make informed decisions on environmental issues; and instill in students the commitment to take responsible action on behalf of the environment.

PLT helps students learn how to think, not what to think, about the environment.

You can get copies of the elementary or secondary materials by attending a PLT workshop. Workshops are offered at various times in various locations. See the website calendar or contact the PLT Coordinator for more information.
