Have you been wondering how to discuss climate and climate change with your class? Are you interested in designing a new narrative for your students? Join us for an educator workshop focused on climate change conversations. In this three hour workshop, we will learn from Brayden Meredith, our Senior Manager of Interpretive Training, about how she teaches communication centered around climate. Brayden is a certified Interpretive Trainer, and has completed courses on Visual Thinking Strategies and Framing the Conversation offered through the National Network for Ocean and Climate Change Interpretation. 
 
Expect to learn from her expertise in trainings, participate in some dialogue centered activities, and bring resources back to your classrooms to continue conversations regarding our changing climate on this planet.
