Join Water Rangers for an inspiring outdoor field trip along the Bow River in Banff, designed for educators to experience hands-on water quality testing and community science! This session will engage participants in water quality testing methods using our accessible kits, sparking discussion on how environmental monitoring can empower students to address real-world environmental issues. Through this immersive experience, educators will explore water parameters like pH, temperature, and dissolved oxygen, and learn how to integrate water testing and climate literacy into their own classrooms. Participants will leave equipped to engage students in environmental action that connects local ecosystems with global climate resilience.
Please note, we will meet in front of the Kinnear Center (1H5, 107 Tunnel Mountain Dr, Banff, AB,
