The Program

For over a decade, the Foundation for Impact on Literacy and Learning (FILL) has been able to offer the Student Eco Citizenship Program to all 5th-8th classrooms in several states at no cost.

Thousands of students have participated and engaged in studies and projects that develop new learning and understanding in the STEM areas. .

This program empowers students to engage with environmental topics, encourages them to become the next generation of active environmental citizens; and fosters a brighter, more sustainable future.

Students will follow four lessons to create, and implement a project that is a solution to an environmental issue. The lessons follow these steps:

U

Lesson 1: Research and solutions

Lesson 2: Action plan

w

Lesson 3: Act and evaluate

Lesson 4: Share, submit, and celebrate!
