Disney launches new enviromental program
Los Angeles Business Journal
The Walt Disney Co. has launched a new nationwide project-based environmental competition for 4th-6th grade classrooms, called Disney’s Planet Challenge.
The program is a collaboration with the National Science Teachers Association, the K-12 Alliance, and state and federal government agencies. Participation in the program is free, and enrollment opened Sept. 9 at www.disney.com/planetchallenge.
Disney’s Planet Challenge Web site provides tailored lesson plans customized to reflect the curriculum standards of each state for each grade level. It also includes a range of multimedia features allowing students to create an online portfolio with classwork, videos, photos, charts and other documents.
Students identify a local environmental issue and come up with a solution that they manage and document from start to finish. Past examples range from implementing campus-wide water conservation programs and electronics recycling drives to protecting local habitats.
