Teaching Resources

In 2016, Friends of the Rio de Flag brought on a part-time AmeriCorps STEM VISTA member to help build capacity of the organization. As part of her role, Chelsea Silva is building lesson plans and educational resources for use by teachers under the Adopt-the-Rio de Flag Stewardship Program. Please select from the categories below for resources relevant to the Rio de Flag and your classroom!
