Today we dive into the power of place-based learning with Beth Squires, a passionate science teacher at Chassell Schools. Beth shares her journey from working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to teaching seventh through twelfth-grade science, and how her experiences have shaped her approach to education.
We look at the Lake Superior Stewardship Initiative and how Beth uses hands-on projects like the Biodiversity Project and the Symbiotic Schoolyard to inspire her students. From game cameras to wildflower gardens, Beth's classroom is alive with curiosity and connection to the natural world. This episode will show you how connecting with the world around us can ignite a love for science and stewardship.
