For the first time, national science standards will include guidelines on how to teach climate change kindergarten through 12th grade students -- but how will teachers incorporate the subject into the curriculum?
We'll have more on this struggle Wednesday on the NewsHour, as part of our Coping with Climate Change series.
On Thursday at 5 p.m. ET, join Hari Sreenivasan for a live chat here with some of those featured in the broadcast piece. The participants* will include:
Cheryl Manning, who teaches honors earth science and Advanced Placement environmental science at Evergreen High School in Colorado.
Susan Buhr, education outreach director at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES), University of Colorado, Boulder, where she works on professional development and training for teachers on science topics.
*Participants subject to change.
Also, check out the creative ways in which some teachers are already teaching climate science.
