Abstract
The purpose of this educational guide is to supplement the Project Learning Tree® (PLT) Environmental Education Activity Guide for PreK-8 grades so an urban educator has the tools to help students understand Florida’s urban forest. It does this by identifying 26 PLT activities that can be used in urban areas; 19 PLT activities that can be changed slightly to be more applicable to an urban space; 6 extensions to existing PLT activities; and 6 new activities. We hope these 57 activities will help you provide a comprehensive study of the urban forest.
