Hello! My name is Rachael (or the Doodlebugs Lady!) I am a wildlife biologist, former zookeeper, actor, lifelong learner, and a mom. I have been a wildlife educator for over 15 years. I have been offering VIRTUAL animal presentations as an option for my company, Doodlebugs Animal Adventures, since school closures in March (Covid-19). Now I am excited to bring these programs to Outschool! In my fun and interactive LIVE animal presentations learners meet a variety of animals and explore the unique ways they survive in their homes! Students are encouraged to engage their bodies as well as their minds as we explore a wide variety of topics. While participants spend much of the program on mute, I ALWAYS encourage questions throughout. I believe "A curious mind can change the world" so my goal is to engage your learner and nurture their innate curiosity, while also promoting empathy and connection to the natural world! Each of my programs includes at least 5 LIVE animal friends. Join me on an exciting “Animal Adventure”
Learning Goals
This program is all about reptiles! We will meet and discuss a variety of snakes, lizards and a tortoise. Topics covered include, scales, ectothermy, ovipary, ovavivipary, camouflage, mimicry and more. While students will be on mute and speaker view during the majority of the program I always encourage participants to ask questions and be an active participant in the learning journey. I strongly believe "A curious mind can change the world!"
