What is Project Learning Tree?
PLT is an award-winning environmental education program for teachers and non-formal educators. Through hands-on interdisciplinary activities, PLT helps young people learn how to think, not what to think, about environmental issues. Professional development opportunities for educators are provided by PLT Nevada. Exciting, inquiry-based curriculum materials are available for ages PreK through 12th grade.
