Project EXPLORE: Experiences Promoting Learning Outdoors for Research and Education, will engage students at their schoolyard in two free, environmental educator-led science programs based on current science curriculum standards. Students will be engaged in ongoing data collection at their schoolyard, and will be invited to present their research.
Teachers will be committing to taking their students outside for at least 15 minutes a week to collect data and reporting data collected back to the Project EXPLORE Coach. Programs will focus on providing information on the local flora and fauna of our region, understanding of scientific inquiry, collection of natural science data, and submission of data to professional scientists for review and interpretation.
