Aves Compartidas
Aves Compartidas
Aves Compartidas is a bilingual, cross-cultural environmental education program through the Willamette-Laja Twinning project. The curriculum focuses on shared migratory birds that travel between the Laja watershed in Guanajuato, Mexico, and the Willamette watershed in Oregon, USA. By focusing on these species, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students, build ecological knowledge and make cross-cultural connections.

Through the Environmental Leadership Program I completed ten weeks of study on environmental education frameworks and pedagogical theory. As a member of the 5th-grade team, I worked with my team to adapt and update six lesson plans from previous Aves teams to expand the curriculum and include Next Generation Science Standards. I facilitated multiple in-classroom lessons for 28 students at El Camino del Río/River Road Elementary and three groups of eight to ten students on field trips at Mt. Pisgah Arboretum.
