The Well Watch Program loves to support its participating teachers however we can! Below are the details for our semesterly membership tiers and their requirements, as well as any FAQs.
How many lessons does each teacher need to teach for participation?
The program requires that a participating teacher use 3 different WWP lessons to qualify. However, if an entire grade level is opted into the program, then this requirement is lowered to 2 lessons each per semester. If two or more grade levels are participating, then this requirement is lowered to 1 lesson each per semester.
Are there any restrictions on the types of lessons that can be used to meet the requirements?Lessons provided by the Well Watch Program all qualify as meeting the requirements. This includes WWP field experiences at the Poudre Learning Center, in-class presentations, or background content engagement on the Well Watch website.
What qualifies as proof of student action, and how do teachers submit it?Proof of student action can include project reports, photos, or other tangible evidence. Submissions can occur via email, physical copies, or through the Student Action section of our website.
