Educational Plataform
Dear teachers:
The activities you will find in this platform are free, practical, aligned to the core subjects, multidisciplinary, inclusive, easy to implement and beautifully designed. Every detail has been designed and planned with you in mind and with our love and respect for you. Your work of inspiring children, day by day, and empowering our future entrepreneurs, scientists, politicians and decision makers, is one of the most important in society. That is why we want to support you and make you fall in love with environmental education and social and emotional learning.
We are committed to breaking any barrier to access the necessary information to educate new generations to coexist with nature and each other. The well-being and survival of humanity depends on it.
P.S. Our educational platform is originally intended for Spanish speaking teachers. The ESL lessons you can find here are a gift from Guardians of Nature and educators in Costa Rica. They have been developed by public school teachers, based on the national English curriculum from the Ministry of Education. They were planned for students from preschool to adults.
