Au Projet Gaia, nous faisons appel à une démarche originale afin d’outiller les jeunes de la maternelle à la 12ième pour agir. À chacun de nos projets, nous intégrons l’apprentissage par l’enquête, les liens avec le programme d’études et l’action locale. Nous nous rendons dans la salle de classe pour travailler directement avec les élèves et les enseignant(e)s.
At The Gaia Project, we use a unique approach to empower youth, K-12, to take action. We incorporate inquiry-based education, curriculum links, and local action in each of our projects.

"Sometimes it’s obvious when a chemical is hazardous, for example, those that cause a rash of coughing from breathing the fumes. Other chemicals cause no immediate or clear symptoms but can have some of the most insidious long-term health effects – particularly when exposure occurs in-utero or during early childhood.
The Healthy Homes project is designed to introduce families to common in-home sources of toxins and provide practical, affordable solutions to limit potentially toxic contact in their day-to-day life.
New Brunswick is lucky to experience relatively clean air, but it remains a growing threat. More people are turning to wood-burning heating options to save money, and climate change is driving hotter, drier summers with more intense wildfires. As we've seen in the summer of 2023, the smoke from these fires can travel thousands of kilometres!
Air pollution affects everyone - especially children. Kids’ lungs are still developing. They breathe more quickly than adults, which means they breathe more air, and more air pollution.
We would love to engage your class in environmental education whether it's a classroom session or outdoor field trip! We have previously hosted angling activities, bioblitz adventures, and benthics (riverbed bugs) demonstrations. We can also organize a visit to one of our rain gardens or restoration sites, or involve the kids in volunteer work such as bird box building, tree planting or willow cutting. The programs we can offer are dependent on available funding, but feel free to reach out and we can determine the activity that's right for you.
This is a teacher's workshop to learn how to teach the basics about rock identification. Provided with the workshop are classroom-ready teaching resources including, a comprehensive Pebble Guide (based on the Science 4 Properties and Uses of Earth Materials curriculum); a field journal; and a pencil case filled with a magnifier, ruler, pencil, eraser and sharpener. The teachers will be guided through a rock identification exercise using pebbles that are representative of some of the common rock names of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rock types.
