  1. How can Systems Thinking influence, prepare, and empower our nation’s youth…

  2. to leave our world

  3. My Academic Goals: Develop Horizontal Thinking Across The Curriculum by creating Children's Forest classrooms where students learn through experiences.

  4. Changes perspectives To understand how a dynamic system actually works, a systems thinker looks at the system from a variety of different angles and from differing points of view, perhaps in collaboration with others.

  5. With our “Sky Islands” right here in our back yard I decided to pursue opportunities to make classrooms across South Eastern Arizona Children's Forest Classrooms.

  6. University of Arizona owns land on top of Mount Lemmon that was donated by Mrs. Faul. This property is being used as our first “Childrens Forest Classroom”

  7. A Solar Webcam is being installed this summer for students to usein the classroom to monitor patterns and data virtually.

  8. Problem solving for the future requires understanding of what has happened in the past. Forest fire management is crucial to understand both the ecological benefits and risks.

  9. This opportunity will help students understand how well our forests can adapt.

  10. Taking on fire management that includes trail design, construction, and maintenance will provide work experience for students as they are making decisions about their futures.

  11. Camera traps will be set on the “Faul property” for kids to be able to document animals.

  12. In this case, meeting with professionals, students learned that a systems structure generates its behavior.

  13. We learned to track animals before going out on our adventure.

  14. Students will place panels strategically.

  15. Teach students to observe how elements within an ecosystem change over time generating patterns and trends.

  16. Connect National Forests, students and scientists with the intent of changing perspectives and increasing global awareness of sustainability

  17. Stewardship

  18. TWIST A HABIT

  19. Twist A HABIT

  20. Students will be making Twist a Habit games to sell To raise money for the Children’s Forest.

  21. When you take risks you need help!
