Explore Biophilic Design in the Classroom

Open to: All Teachers
Opportunity at a Glance: Join teacher Stephen Kos on the NYCPS Climate Education Leadership Team to transform your classroom into a living laboratory that reduces stress, boosts attention, and cultivates the next generation of environmental stewards. During this workshop, participants will explore the research-backed benefits of biophilic design, experience practical examples, and leave with a concrete implementation plan tailored to your budget and grade level. Whether you have $50 or $500 to spend, you will discover how bringing nature indoors creates calmer, more engaged students while building their connection to the planet thew will inherit.
