Teacher Workshop: Exploring Climate Impacts on the Chicago River

Better understand the local impacts of climate change on the South Branch of the Chicago River.
Delve into Shedd's latest research exploring the role of macroinvertebrates (animals without a backbone, viewable without a microscope) and microhabitats (small areas that differ from the surrounding habitat) in assessing habitat health. Discover how the floating wetlands on the river are enhancing biodiversity there, and how sewer overflows impact wildlife. Plus, learn how you and your students can take steps to protect our local waterways.
NOTE: This workshop builds upon our winter virtual Teacher Workshop, offering deeper engagement and practical strategies for integrating local environmental issues into your curriculum.
