How PBh Units Work
Each Unit Has 4 Lessons with Videos & Lesson Plans
Intro
Meet the Boneheads! First, we start with the animated adventures of the Boneheads, our quirky, lovable characters who introduce climate topics with humor, creativity, and heart. This segment is paired with an art lesson plan that gets students thinking and creating.
Problem
It's Your Planet Too! unpacks real-world environmental challenges, explaining how they affect us all—and why we should care. This segment is accompanied by a social justice lesson plan that helps students connect the global to the local.
Solution
Think Like Engineers! Say goodbye to doom and gloom thanks to the innovative greentech solutions we already have. Paired with a design and engineering lesson plan, students are inspired to channel their creativity and prototype their own solutions.
Action
You Have the Power! Finally, a music video filled with energy and empowerment delivers actionable steps kids can take today—at home and at school—to be part of the solution. Paired with an outdoor activity lesson plan that turns learning into doing.
