About This Activity
Description
The OWL (Outdoor Wonders and Learning) workshop will delve into the Environmental Education-based curriculum guide. It is aligned with the NC Essential Standards for elementary grades, but can be scaled up to middle school. It focuses on Science, but can also meet Math, Social Studies, and English-Language Arts with place-based lessons. Educators gain skills and resources to facilitate engaging, hands-on, inquiry-based lessons that meet Standards and develop comfort with science and nature in the outdoors.
OWL is a Criteria 1 workshop. 6.0 hours of EE credit or CEU's are available.
Pre-registration is required for this workshop. This workshop is a combination of both indoor and outdoor activities. Please wear clothing and footwear appropriate for the weather and bring a bag lunch and drink as there are no nearby lunch options.
