On-Site Visits/Field Trips
In interactive programs, that cover a diverse context of learning areas, including, language arts, math, science, social studies and music, we use an age-appropriate discussion, visual presentation, current facts, props, original songs, and humor to engage and educate listeners. Programs are designed to aid preschool and elementary school educators and program directors by offering an environmental education experience that is aligned with curriculum standards. Programs can be performed in small or assembly-like settings.*
