This resource shows how a teacher educator can unpack a general overview of the connect, explore and engage strands of Wisconsin's Environmental Literacy and Sustainability (WELS) Standards. While pre-service teachers will undoubtedly become immersed in WELS standards during their science and science methods courses, the integration of WELS standards from the very beginning of their teacher certification program is a proactive approach to learning. The placement of WELS standards into the beginning of their program will hopefully increase the likelihood these future educators will value this integration as a natural part of their teaching requirements rather than as an additional concept to squeeze in.
