Campamento Wild About Wildlife (niños de 10 a 14 años)

"There are some who can live without wild things and some who cannot." - Aldo Leopold

This wildlife camp is for your wild thing at home! This camp will meet twice a week for two weeks and is fun and educational and for children who love nature and animals. Camp involves learning about animals, plants, animal-themed games, nature crafts, nature excursions, and more!

Lessons are designed to captivate, engage and challenge young people, while building conservation knowledge and values. We'll learn about animals and the environment during class, then students will be encouraged to go outside and experience nature after class. 

Wildlife Camp is a fun way to learn about wildlife and instill a life-long respect for the environment. Campers will be exposed to the field of natural resource conservation.

My classes are inclusive. Learners can ask questions, cultivate discussions, and share experiences with each other to learn together. My teaching style is energetic, interactive, engaging, and always supportive. 

Classes may run up to five minutes over the scheduled time depending on learner discussion and questions.

No prior knowledge is necessary!
