Teaching Tools
| Teaching children about their role in our environment fosters positive habits and attitudes that can last a lifetime. The City of Eugene has prepared two distinct stormwater curricula with emphasis on Willamette Valley waterways. Handouts, activities and posters enrich learning both in and out of the classroom. Most materials are available to download from the links below. Eugene public and private school teachers should contact us for items such as activity supplies, booklets and posters that are not found here; some are unusual sizes or are not available in digital formats. As we are funded by local stormwater fees, we cannot provide these supplemental materials for those outside of Eugene. Delta Ponds Video and Classroom Activities Centrally located in Eugene, this restored natural park is a great place for students to learn about clean water, ecosystems and wildlife. Encourage exploration and learning by introducing Delta Ponds through videos, discussions and activities.
