Educational Field Days are held in many different counties throughout the state. We set up stations for students to rotate through every 15/20 minutes to teach students (3rd-5th grades) about conservation. Some examples of the stations are :

Our environmental education programs provide interactive learning experiences for students and adults to engage in non-biased, science-based, hands-on learning that encourages the building of critical thinking skills and good decision-making processes.
Research shows that students are more likely to remember and be able to apply skills and knowledge that are experienced. 85-90% will remember what they see, hear and do; while only 10-15% remember things they have read or heard. We want to provide opportunities for students to experience environmental education!
