Alternate Title: Jane Goodall's Roots and Shoots
Url: https://news.janegoodall.org/2018/05/24/6236/
Publisher: Jane Goodall Institute.
Description: For educators looking for a way to engage K-12 students in community activism and wildlife conservation, Jane Goodall's Roots & Shoots is a welcome resource. From its origins as a group of 12 environmentally conscious students in Tanzania in 1991, Roots & Shoots has since grown to include over 150,000 members in 130 countries. Building on Dr. Jane Goodall's vision of a youth-led environmental movement, this website provides the necessary tools to launch a project relevant to students and their communities. From the homepage, navigate to Start a Roots & Shoots Community Project to learn about the 4-step formula. Step 1, Get Engaged, includes resources for learning about Dr. Goodall, the Roots & Shoots program, example campaigns, and lessons and activities for students. Step 2, Map It, includes age-appropriate options for assessing community needs and potential resources. After mapping the needs of a community, it's time to Take Action, Step 3. Here readers will find links to help with the process, such as applying for a mini-grant, or tips on community collaboration. Finally, Step 4 is Celebrating. In addition, the Tools for Educators section offers even more resources, curriculum, and support for getting started on a project.
