Abstract	The authors of this article have participated in intensive professional development in the Peruvian Amazon and brought this firsthand experience of the rainforest back to their classrooms. However, the activities presented in this article are designed to be accessible and inspirational to "all students," regardless of whether they or their teachers have traveled beyond their hometowns. With experiences in urban and rural California, Alabama, New York, and Oklahoma schools, the authors present ways to weave investigations of the ecological roles of local trees together with activities that raise students' awareness of global connections and build their capacities as environmental scientists and global citizens.
