Are they on the "cutting edge" or are they living "on the edge"??? Read and decide for yourself. I like the concept of teaching "across the curriculum"... it's been around for ages. Heck, it makes class more interesting at times in my view, to learn what students are learning! However, I don't think the State Board of Education has the idea set "in stone" yet. Good intentions to have kids learn about conservation and how to preserve for future generations... however, with no set way of going about it... it makes me wonder... I know how I'd approach it from a teaching perspective, but why make it a graduation requirement to have the class? Most schools offer environmental science in some form or fashion for over 20 years already. Let me know your views!
