Welcome!

Are you a teacher who cares about our water planet and wants to inspire and encourage your students to do the same? You've come to the right place. The Water Planet Challenge will give you the information and materials you need to help your middle and high school students TAKE ACTION to protect and restore our planet's natural resources while teaching to key standards.

We've sifted through lesson plans, videos, and other resources provided by many different organizations, and bundled the very best together into collections that address some of the most pressing environmental topics today. At the center of each is an original service-learning Action Guide that pulls it all together. So whether you're looking to lead a semester-long service-learning experience or just need a short video clip to illustrate a key point in tomorrow's lesson, we've got you covered.
