The goal of Project WET is to facilitate and promote the awareness, appreciation, knowledge and stewardship of water resources through the development and dissemination of classroom-ready teaching aids and the establishment of state and internationally sponsored Project WET programs.

The workshop also includes local watershed curriculum called Watershed Cruzin' for 4-12th grades.

the curriculum
The Project WET Curriculum and Activity Guide is a collection of over 90 innovative, interdisciplinary activities that are hands-on, easy to use, and fun. The activities incorporate a variety of formats including whole body activities, large and small group learning, co-operative learning, laboratory investigations, local and global topics and involvement in community service projects.

Developed, field-tested, and reviewed by over 600 educators and resource managers working with 34,000 students nationwide, Project WET Curriculum and Activity Guide activities promote critical thinking and problem-solving skills and help provide young people with the knowledge and experience they will need to make informed decisions regarding water resource management.
